Gubbio, 27 March 2019 - GO internet S.p.A. has announced that the Board of Directors that met today, has approved the draft financial statements (prepared according to IAS/IFRS and ITA GAAP) at 31 December 2018.
GO internet has reached a turnover of Euro 6,628 thousand, a slight increase of 1% compared to Euro 6,582 thousand recorded in 2017. The year 2018 showed stability in revenues from the provision of wireless broadband connectivity service and the process for transformation of the portion of the Wimax network into a 5G ready network has been started. The FTTH fiber segment performed well, recording an increase of +357% compared to the previous year. The company started the commercialization of the FTTH fiber service in the municipality of Perugia and also in the municipalities of Ancona and Bologna, following the FTTH network deployment plan of Open Fiber. The breakdown of revenues is as follows:
| BREAKDOWN OF SALES REVENUES | 2018 | 2017 | Change | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| (Amounts in Euro/thousands) | ||||||
| Phone traffic reseller revenues | 9 | 0% | 11 | 0% | (2) | -20% |
| Fees 4G-LTE | 6,438 | 97% | 6,532 | 100% | (94) | -1% |
| Fees Fibre "FTTH" | 182 | 3% | 40 | 142 | 357% | |
| Sales revenues | 6,628 | 100% | 6,582 | 100% | 46 | 1% |
"2018 was characterized by a particularly competitive market and saw the company, by virtue of its partnership with Linkem, start the process for transformation of the portion of the Wimax network into a 5G ready network. Thanks to the extension of frequencies, we can plan the migration of the entire network into 5G, the technology that will characterize the next decade, with the aim of offering an increasingly innovative and competitive service" stated Giuseppe Colaiacovo, President of GO internet.
EBITDA of Euro 2,632 thousand in 2018 compared to Euro 2,767 thousand in 2017 has recorded a slight decrease both in absolute terms (-5% compared to the previous year) and in terms of incidence on revenues (40% in 2018 compared to 42% in 2017).
Furthermore, EBIT, amounting to Euro -1,239 thousand (Euro -26 thousand in 2017), has been affected by both the increase in amortization in absolute terms due to new investments for the expansion of the 4G-
LTE network infrastructure and the incidence of the impairment of trade receivables.
As regards the equity and financial figures, at 31 December 2018, net invested capital amounted to Euro 13,838 thousand (Euro 12,709 thousand at 31 December 2017).
Cash flow from operations recorded an increase of +75% to Euro 3,084 thousand (Euro 1,781 thousand in 2017).
Net Financial Position amounted to Euro 2,871 thousand, a decrease of Euro 1,608 thousand compared to 31 December 2017 due to the finalization in May 2018 of the share capital increase of Euro 4 million including the premium to Linkem S.p.A. approved by the Meeting of Shareholders on 27th April 2018.
The following are the most significant events that occurred in 2018: (i) in May was the completion of the share capital increase of Euro 4 million including the share premium reserved for Linkem S.p.A. with entry of the latter in the capital of GO internet with a share of 21.22%; (ii) in July, the Ministry of Economic Development gave its approval to the frequency sharing agreement between GO internet and Linkem for the shared use of the frequencies assigned to both companies in the 3.4.-3.6 GHz band in the regions Marche and Emilia Romagna; iii) also in July, the Ministry of Economic Development informed GO internet that the extension of the rights to use the BWA frequencies in the 3.4.-3.6 GHz band may be granted following the administrative procedure and in compliance with the conditions prescribed by the Italian Communications Authority - until 31 December 2029; (iv) in November, the Ministry of Economic Development, at the end of the extension procedure, requested the payment of approximately Euro 2.7 million by 31 January 2019 as a contribution for the rights to use the frequencies in the 3.4 - 3.6 GHz band, for the period 1 July 2023 - 31 December 2029; (v) in December, the Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting resolved to increase the share capital against payment in divisible form for a maximum of Euro 5 million, inclusive of any share premium, with the aim of providing the Company with financial resources necessary for the payment, in a single installment, of the contributions reconnected to the extension of the rights to use the 5G frequencies and to find new resources for the pursuit of the strategic objectives envisaged by the 2019-2023 business plan and, in particular, to allow the Company to continue in the implementation and expansion of the 5G ready in overlay network infrastructure also by exploiting the synergies deriving from the frequency sharing agreement signed with Linkem S.p.A..
After the close of 2018 financial year, instead, the following is recalled: (ii) at the end of January was the successful completion of the Capital Increase of approximately Euro 5 million, subscribed 100% and that led Linkem, which exercised its rights in full, to become the largest shareholder of GO internet with a 21.22% share, while the free float was equal to 54.21% of the share capital; (iii) also in January, GO internet made the payment for the extension of the rights to use the 3.4-3.6 GHz band in the regions Marche and Emilia Romagna for the period 1 July 2023 - 31 December 2029, completing the process of extension of the rights to use 5G frequencies.
