CEO comment

"During the quarter, we continued to execute on our commitment to invest in our core business and actively manage our asset portfolio to become a simpler, faster and more efficient Telia. Operational momentum is healthy in Sweden and the Baltics, customer satisfaction is improving, and cost efficiencies are materializing across the group as a result of last year's change program. Meanwhile, we are taking measures to improve revenue trends in Norway and Finland.

We are continually innovating within our core to create value and ensure Telia remains the trusted partner that the Nordic and Baltic societies need in an uncertain world. In this respect, we are seeing progress throughout our footprint, and in June we welcomed the Swedish Armed Forces to Telia and Ericsson's NorthStar 5G innovation program to test new solutions in military communications, logistics and security.

In Sweden, service growth accelerated to +2.8%, despite continued drag from copper legacy services, and was again led by fixed services including our award-winning TV and streaming offerings. The offer to acquire Bredband2, with its highly complementary value-for-money brand in the fixed broadband market, is an opportunity to build further convergence-led growth, and is underpinned by a clear plan to extract synergies.

In Finland, trends were similar to the previous quarter, as growth in mobile and consumer broadband did not fully offset headwinds in enterprise. Service revenue declined -0.7%. We are taking actions to improve commercial trends, and while seeing early signs of improvement, much work remains. Meanwhile, we continue to drive cost efficiencies and simplification, resulting in strong EBITDA growth of +9.8%.

Norway saw expected headwinds, with lower wholesale and TV revenue driving service revenue decline of -3.9%. We are executing on a comprehensive agenda to return our fixed business to growth, including a new organization that both reduces costs and places fixed services in a separate division, with the aim of improving end-to-end quality and customer experience. At the end of the quarter, we reached a new multi-year agreement for TV 2 content, which is now again available to Telia's customers.

Lithuania continued to deliver mid-single digit service revenue growth, led by +7.1% growth in mobile and +4.0% in fixed. In May, we announced a partnership to trial Lithuania's first 5G standalone network at the Baltic Sea port of Klaipėda. Estonia grew more modestly, with both mobile and fixed services contributing positively.

Following wide-ranging discussions on the optimal ownership structure for our businesses in Latvia, we signed a Memorandum of Understanding with our partner, the Latvian State, after the quarter to divest Telia's shares in the two operating companies at a price that both parties consider to be fair. The transaction is expected to close in 2026. This agreement addresses the strategic objective of active asset portfolio management and follows the closing of the TV & Media divestment on July 1.

Sustainability progress

Telia scored an A in CDP's latest Supplier Engagement Assessment, ranking among the world's top companies in engaging with suppliers on climate action. Telia suppliers representing 64% of greenhouse gas emissions in our supply chain have now set Science Based Targets or equivalent. Similarly, Telia has recently become Estonia's first operator to equip nearly a quarter of its mobile masts with solar parks, adding another source of renewable energy while boosting the resilience of Telia's infrastructure.

Financial progress

With efficiencies materializing, and Sweden delivering its forecasted progress, earnings growth remained close to our plan, albeit with headwinds in Norway. Service revenue growth of +1.0% is somewhat below our longer-term ambitions. Meanwhile, EBITDA growth of +6.2% is well in line with, or even somewhat ahead of, what we expected three months ago, which shows that our actions are having the anticipated effect. Strong cash flow in the quarter of SEK 2.3 billion, and a reduction of leverage to 2.09x, is further evidence of increased financial health and testament that we are delivering on our promises.

Looking ahead

Our full-year outlook is unchanged, including service revenue growth of around 2%, EBITDA growth of at least 5%, CAPEX below SEK 14 billion and free cash flow around SEK 7.5 billion. Despite the strong EBITDA growth in the second quarter, we still expect third-quarter EBITDA growth to be somewhat lower than the growth we expect for the full year, with a re-acceleration in the final quarter.

I am encouraged to see our teams in Sweden and the Baltics maintaining growth momentum, and by the broad set of initiatives underway in Finland and Norway. Telia is adapting to a faster pace of change and continuous efficiency improvements, which are here to stay.

I want to thank our customers, shareholders and employees for their ongoing support and trust. We are determined to stay disciplined, deliver on our commitments, and be a trusted and progressive partner for the digital societies we serve."

Patrik Hofbauer President & CEO

In CEO comment, all growth rates disclosed are based on the "like for like" definition and EBITDA refers to adjusted EBITDA, unless otherwise stated. See definitions for more information. Free cash flow outlook statements are based on assumptions of normalized cash CAPEX for spectrum of SEK 650 million per year.

Outlook for 2025 (reiterated)

  • Service revenue growth, like for like, of around 2%
  • Adjusted EBITDA growth, like for like, of at least 5%
  • CAPEX, excluding spectrum and leases below SEK 14 billion
  • Free cash flow of around SEK 7.5 billion*

* Based on the assumption of normalized cash CAPEX for spectrum of SEK 650 million

Leverage target

Telia Company targets a leverage corresponding to Net debt/adjusted EBITDA in the range of 2.0-2.5x.

Dividend policy

Telia Company intends to follow a progressive dividend policy, with a floor of SEK 2.00 per share and an ambition for low to mid-single digit percentage growth.

Dividend to shareholders for 2024

For 2024, the Annual General Meeting (AGM) on April 9, 2025, decided on a dividend of SEK 2.00 per share (2.00), totaling SEK 7.9 billion (7.9). The dividend will be split and distributed in four tranches of SEK 0.50 per share.

For dividend distribution dates, refer to the Other items section in this report.

Sweden

In the quarter, Telia's unique position as a trusted provider of secure and robust communication for mission-critical services resulted in the Swedish Armed Forces joining Telia's and Ericsson's NorthStar 5G innovation program. For consumers, Telia launched a new mobile portfolio in June including new streaming services and unlimited data, which supported price increases for selected services. Importantly, customer satisfaction continued to improve for both consumer and enterprise customers.

Mobile postpaid subscriptions excluding M2M services increased by ~19,000, driven by the Consumer segment, where all three brands contributed positively. Broadband subscriptions increased slightly as fiber and FWA fully offset the decline in copperbased connections, of which only ~12,000 remained at the end of the quarter. The demand for Telia's leading TV service continues to be strong, with ~11,000 customers added.

Revenue, like for like, increased 2.7%, driven predominantly by increased service revenue for both the Consumer and Enterprise segments and to a lesser extent by increased sales of equipment.

Service revenue, like for like, increased 2.8% as a slight decrease of 0.5% in mobile service revenue was more than compensated for by fixed service revenue increasing 4.5%, driven mainly by Business Solutions and TV. The latter both from attracting new customers and a higher ARPU.

Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 39.8% (37.7) and adjusted EBITDA, like for like, increased 7.8% driven by service revenue growth and significantly lower operational expenses, which were mainly related to resources following the Change program implemented in the fourth quarter of 2024.

CAPEX excluding spectrum and leases decreased 2.9% to SEK 1,143 million (1,178).

Finland

In the quarter Telia was again chosen as the provider of telecommunications services under the Hansel frame agreement, covering a wide range of communication solutions for municipal entities and its employees. The agreement includes around 240,000 mobile subscriptions and is expected to grow further over the sevenyear contract period. As part of a continuing focus on customer security, Telia became the first operator in Finland to introduce an innovative new feature aiming to reduce call-back scams.

Mobile postpaid subscriptions excluding M2M services decreased by ~35,000, mostly driven by the loss of a large public sector contract. Broadband subscriptions continued to grow, driven by fiber, while the number of TV subscriptions saw a seasonal decline following the end of the winter sports season.

Revenue, like for like, increased 0.1% as higher sales of equipment more than offset a slight decline in service revenue.

Service revenue, like for like, decreased 0.7% as mobile service revenue growth of 0.9% was more than offset by a 2.6% decline in fixed service revenue. The latter was the result of growth in broadband revenue being more than offset by lower revenue from business solutions, largely due to the ongoing ramp-down of the e-invoicing business.

Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 32.2% (29.2) and adjusted EBITDA, like for like, increased 9.8% as the negative impact from lower service revenue was more than compensated for by lower cost levels mainly related to resources following the Change program implemented in the fourth quarter of 2024.

CAPEX excluding spectrum and leases decreased 21.4% to SEK 325 million (413).

Norway

In the quarter a separate division for fixed broadband and TV services was created to improve end-to-end quality, customer experience, and growth. Before the introduction of this new organization, a significant reduction in network incidents has already been achieved in the first half of the year. In connection with the reorganization, a reduction in the number of employees was announced. In mobile services, Telia's OneCall brand again won the "mobile subscription" industry category in the Norwegian Customer Barometer 2025 and placed fifth out of all companies across all sectors. In the same study the Telia brand was one of the leaders in the operator industry list. At the end of the quarter, Telia signed a new multi-year agreement for TV2 content, which is once more available to Telia's customers.

Mobile postpaid subscriptions excluding M2M services decreased by ~2,000, driven by the consumer segment. Broadband subscriptions decreased by ~7,000 and TV subscriptions declined by ~8,000.

Revenue, like for like, decreased 3.8% predominately driven by lower service revenue.

Service revenue, like for like, decreased 3.9%. This was a result of mobile revenue declining 2.5% which was attributable to lower wholesale revenue, and fixed revenue declining 7.4% mainly due to continued pressure on revenue from TV and broadband.

Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased to 46.0% (48.2) and adjusted EBITDA like for like decreased 8.6% following the decline in service revenue as well as higher operational expenses. The latter were driven by a positive impact of approximately SEK 50 million in the corresponding quarter last year from a pension liability adjustment.

CAPEX excluding spectrum and leases decreased 17.4% to SEK 478 million (578).

1) Refers to the Group Executive Management team and the management level below.

Telia is dedicated to reducing its environmental footprint and fostering a sustainable future by addressing climate change, enhancing energy efficiency, and promoting a circular economy, which is more thoroughly described in its climate transition plan.

At the same time, the company prioritizes human rights, fair labor conditions, and the well-being of individuals across its workforce, supply chain, and communities — focusing on worker protections, children's rights, digital inclusion, and the privacy and security of its customers.

Through a strong corporate governance framework, Telia ensures transparency, accountability, and ethical business practices by managing key risks, overseeing sustainability initiatives, and upholding integrity in its daily operations.

First half year

Climate: By the end of this quarter suppliers representing 64% of GHG emissions had set climate targets validated by Science Based Targets Initiative or similar. Work to ensure emission reductions in the supply chain is ongoing through active supplier engagement, and Telia has again been recognized by CDP as a Supplier Engagement Leader for climate.

Circularity: The share of refurbished phones sold increased, because of good availability of devices, partly due to good take-back campaigns, combined with good pricing on selected bundles.

Digital inclusion: Telia has so far reached 3.1 million individuals through digital skills building initiatives, primarily with focus on online safety. During the period initiatives were focused on children, families and elderly, who were primarily reached through newsletters, webpages, magazines and articles about digital safety.

Privacy: At the end of the quarter, Telia was ranked first or second in three of five markets in Telia's brand tracker, based on private customers' perception about privacy. As an example of our innovation in this area, we rolled out a security service for all Telia's mobile customers in Sweden that blocked more than 31 million scam calls in the first half of 2025.

Diversity, equity and inclusion: Telia is dedicated to creating an inclusive workplace which is the reason for a 50/50 gender balance target in the extended Telia Management Team. Ongoing efforts that support this commitment include updating processes and structures, as well as leadership and culture frameworks.

Notes

Note 1. Basis of preparations

General

The Telia Company group applies IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the European Union. The parent company's financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act as well as standard RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities and other statements issued by the Swedish Corporate Reporting Board. For the group this Interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and for the parent company in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The accounting policies adopted, and computation methods used are consistent with those followed in the Annual report 2024.

All amounts in this report are presented in SEK millions, unless otherwise stated. Rounding differences may occur. Comparable figures are provided in parentheses and refer to the same item in the corresponding period last year, unless otherwise stated. If prior periods have been restated for comparability to reflect changes in financial and operational data, the changes are only described if material.

Segment information

From January 1, 2025, based on changes in internal management reporting and internal steering, all internal transactions are reported as cost allocations where the sending unit reports the transfer as a cost reduction. In accordance with the new internal reporting, segment assets and segment liabilities only include external items. Previously some internal transactions were reported as internal revenue and segment assets and segment liabilities included both internal and external items.

The Telia Towers businesses in Sweden, Finland and Norway have been reclassified to Telia Asset Management within Other operations from January 1, 2025 in order to reflect the corresponding internal reorganization.

The new country-led operating model has been fully reflected in the segment reporting from January 1, 2025, impacting number of employees and CAPEX in the segments.

Comparative periods have been restated, see restatement tables below.

Discontinued operations

Segment TV and Media was classified as held for sale and discontinued operations from February 25, 2025. Operations and network assets in Denmark, which were sold in April 2024, were classified as held for sale and discontinued operations from September 15, 2023. Danish units that were not sold are included in Other operations within continuing operations. Discontinued operations (TV and Media and Denmark) are not included in the segment information in Note 3. For information on discontinued operations and disposals, see Note 11.

Restatement of financial and operational data

Historical financial data has been restated to reflect the reorganization of Telia Towers to Other operations (previously reported under Sweden, Finland and Norway). Furthermore, internal revenue has been restated due to new internal transactions reporting and as a result of the new country-led organization, CAPEX excl. spectrum and leases and number of employees have been restated between segments for comparability as per tables below.

Fair value measurement of Level 3 financial instruments

Investments classified within Level 3 make use of significant unobservable inputs in deriving fair value, as they trade infrequently. As observable prices are not available for these equity instruments, Telia Company has a market approach to derive the fair value. Telia Company's primary valuation technique used for estimating the fair value of unlisted equity instruments in Level 3 is based on the most recent transaction for the specific company if such transaction has been recently made. If there have been significant changes in circumstances between the transaction date and the balance sheet date, that in the assessment of Telia Company, would have a material impact on the fair value, the carrying value is adjusted to reflect the changes. The table below presents the movement in Level 3 instruments during the year.

The fair value change recognized in other comprehensive income in 2025 of SEK 664 million related to revaluation of Telia Company's 9.56% holding in Marshall Group. The investment was revalued in 2025 to a fair value of SEK 1,091 million corresponding to the price received in the disposal in April 2025. The price per share of SEK 1,060 was based on the sales agreement signed on January 24, 2025, adjusted for the dividend received in March 2025. See Note 11.

On February 24, 2025, Telia Company received a decision from the Norwegian Tax Agency (NTA) in line with previous notification on the tax depreciation period for purchased equipment in Telia Finance Norwegian branch. A payment of the related current tax liability of SEK 212 million has been made in the second quarter 2025. The NTA decision has during the second quarter 2025 been appealed to the Norwegian Tax Appeals Board.

For information on payment of tax indemnity to Norlys, see Note 11.

In connection with the divestment of Ncell in 2016, Telia Company provided a tax indemnity towards a third party. At the time of the transaction, Telia Company recognized a non-current provision based on the best estimate of a potential indemnity amount. On July 11, 2025, Telia Company was informed of a court decision confirming the tax claim on the party covered by the indemnity. The amount and timing of the provision settlement are still very uncertain. As per June 30, 2025, the provision amounts to SEK 1,125 million and no changes have been made in the second quarter 2025.

Note 11. Discontinued operations, assets held for sale and other disposals

Discontinued operations and assets held for sale

TV and Media – discontinued operation

On February 25, 2025, Telia Company signed an agreement to sell its TV and Media business, including the TV4 brand in Sweden and the MTV brand in Finland, to Schibsted Media at an enterprise value of SEK 6.55 billion on a cash and debt-free basis. The agreement is in line with Telia Company's active portfolio management strategy as per the Investor update in September 2024 and focus on growth in its core connectivity business in the Nordic and Baltic regions. The transaction was closed on July 1, 2025. The proceeds from the transaction will be used for deleveraging. Through a multi-year partnership, Telia will continue to distribute TV4 and MTV content as part of its TV offering.

Based on the signed sales agreement the sale of TV and Media was deemed highly probable within one year and TV and Media was therefore classified as held for sale and discontinued operations as of February 25, 2025. Following the classification as discontinued operations, an impairment test based on fair value (sales price) less costs to sell resulted in an impairment of SEK 1,936 million net of deferred tax in the first quarter 2025. An additional impairment of SEK 976 million net of deferred tax was recognized in the second quarter 2025, mainly due to increased carrying values following the reversal of depreciation and amortization expenses.

Denmark – discontinued operation (disposed in 2024)

The operations and network assets in Denmark were classified as held for sale and discontinued operations since September 15, 2023 and the disposal of Denmark to Norlys was closed on April 2, 2024. Danish units that were not sold are included in Other operations within continuing operations. In the second quarter 2025 Telia Company repaid SEK 28 million to Norlys related to final sales price adjustments. The payment was presented as cash flow from investing activities from continuing operations within Operations and other equity instruments divested.

On February 25, 2025, Telia Company received a negative tax ruling from the Danish tax authorities and has therefore paid a tax indemnity of DKK 340 million (SEK 503 million) to Norlys in March 2025. The cash flow was presented as cash flow from investing activities from continuing operations within Operations and other equity instruments divested. The tax ruling has been appealed to the Danish Tax Agency during the second quarter 2025. No provision has been recognized for the indemnity as the amount paid to Norlys is expected to be repaid since it is deemed probable that Telia Company would win a final tax appeal in court.

Shareholding in Marshall Group – asset held for sale (disposed in the second quarter 2025)

On January 24, 2025, Telia Company signed an agreement with HongShan Group to sell its 9.56% shareholding in Marshall Group (Marshall). Based on the signed sales agreement the investment was classified as held for sale from the end of January 2025. The transaction was closed on April 8, 2025.

The Marshall investment (equity instrument) was revalued based on the agreed sales price adjusted for dividend received in March 2025, which resulted in an increase of the carrying value of SEK 626 million in the first quarter 2025 and an additional increase of SEK 38 million in the second quarter 2025, which were both recognized through other comprehensive income (OCI). The dividend received in March 2025 of SEK 48 million, was recognized within Financial items, net in the income statement. The sales price received at closing in April 2025 amounted to SEK 1,091 million and was presented as cash flow from investing activities from continuing operations within Operations and other equity instruments divested.

Presentation

The consolidated statements of comprehensive income for current and comparative periods reflect the split into continuing and discontinued operations, i.e. comparative periods have been restated. The consolidated cash flow statements for current and comparative periods present cash flows for the total group, but with additional information on cash flows from discontinued operations. Free cash flow for the group includes only cash flow from continuing operations. The consolidated statement of financial position presents assets and liabilities to be disposed as held for sale, but comparative periods are not restated. The amounts for continuing and discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements are presented after elimination of intra group transactions and balances unless the similar types of transactions and balances are expected to continue also after the disposal. Telia Company will continue to distribute TV4 and MTV content as part of its TV offering and related internal transactions and balances are therefore not eliminated.

Disposal of property in Sweden

On March 5, 2025, Telia Company completed the sale of a property related to the copper network in Sweden, which resulted in a capital gain from divestment of property, plant and equipment of SEK 195 million in the first quarter 2025 that was recognized within Other operating income and expenses, net (classified as an adjustment item). The positive cash flow effect from the transaction of SEK 198 million, was recognized as Intangible assets and property, plant and equipment divested (positive impact on Free cash flow) in the first quarter 2025.

Note 12. Alternative performance measures

In addition to financial performance measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, Telia Company presents non-IFRS financial performance measures. These alternative measures are considered to be important performance indicators for investors and other users of the Interim report. The alternative performance measures should be considered as a complement to, but not a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with IFRS. Telia Company's definitions and explanation of the use of these non-IFRS measures are described in the Annual report 2024. These terms may be defined differently by other companies and are therefore not always comparable to similar measures used by other companies.

Goods and services purchased in the second quarter and first half of 2025 decreased to SEK -90 million (-494) and SEK -90 million (-852), respectively, mainly related to film and program rights.

Other external expenses in the second quarter and first half of 2025 increased to SEK -147 million (-81) and SEK -330 million (-104), respectively, mainly driven by increased group internal costs.

Financial items, net in the second quarter and first half of 2025 decreased to SEK 2,015 million (5,142) and SEK -2,196 million (3,051), respectively. The decrease of the second quarter was mainly due to the capital gain of SEK 3,228 million from the disposal of the Danish entities 2024. In addition, the first half of 2025 was impacted by an impairment of shares in subsidiaries, partly offset by dividends from subsidiaries of SEK 2,793 million (1,815).

Appropriations in the second quarter and first half of 2025 increased to SEK 1,754 million (-11) and SEK 2,239 million (1,738), respectively, due to increased group contributions from the subsidiaries, partly offset by increased net profit equalization reserve.

Non-current assets decreased to SEK 137,028 million (147,095). The shares in the subsidiary TV4 Media Holding AB were tested for impairment based on fair value (sales price) less costs to sell, which in the first quarter 2025 resulted in an impairment of SEK 5,551 million. Additionally, non-current assets were affected by decreased noncurrent internal receivables, divestments of investment bonds, market value changes of derivatives, reclassifications to current assets and sale of other equity holdings, partly offset by increased other non-current receivables.

Current assets decreased to SEK 31,363 million (32,736), mainly due to decreased receivables from group companies referring to group contributions and decreased short-term investments and cash and bank following dividend payment, partly offset by investments of bonds and reclassifications from non-current assets.

Non-current liabilities decreased to SEK 68,340 million (72,108), mainly impacted by foreign exchange rates and interest rate effects on issued bonds and derivatives and by reclassifications to current liabilities.

Current liabilities and current provisions increased to SEK 39,981 million (39,586), mainly due to unpaid dividend liability and reclassifications from non-current liabilities, partly offset by decreased liabilities to group companies.
