Segments were determined based on the Group's legal structure, as the Group's chief operating decision makers review financial information separately reported by the parent company (OTE) and each of the Group's consolidated subsidiaries.

Using the quantitative thresholds OTE, Cosmote and, Romtelecom, have been determined as reportable segments. Information about operating segments that do not constitute reportable segments have been combined and disclosed in an "All Other" category.
