REVENUES

Consolidated revenues in 2Q23 grew by 6.8% yoy to 393.8 million euros, driven by strong operational performance across all business segments. Telco revenues were 6.2% higher YoY, reaching 377.5 million euros. The positive momentum was led by significant growth in core services, namely fixed / convergent services and core value post-paid mobile subscriptions supported by healthy ARPU trends more than compensating for a market wide seasonal slowdown in low ARPU pre-paid mobile services. Growth in B2C amounted to 7.1% yoy and B2B revenues increased by 2.8%. Wholesale and other revenues continued to perform well posting growth of 8.5% yoy, supported by ongoing recovery in roaming in revenues and an increase in low-margin mass calling services.

Audiovisual & Cinema revenues posted a 9.8% yoy increase to 24.6 million euros led by strong growth in cinema revenues of 29% yoy thanks to movie blockbusters such as Fast X, The Super Mario Bros, The Little Mermaid and Guardians of the Galaxy 3, all of which exceeded 200k in ticket sales. Cinema revenues in the 2Q23 achieved almost the same level of 2Q19, this was the best result post pandemic. Expectations are also positive for the second half with the scheduled premier of blockbusters such as "Indiana Jones" or "Mission: Impossible". Of the top10 movies exibited during 2Q23 NOS audiovisuals distributed 4, representing 32% share of GBO distribution revenues.

EBITDA, EBITDA AL AND NET RESULTS

Consolidated EBITDA maintained a positive trend in 2Q23, increasing by 10.0% to 179.1 million euros and Consolidated EBITDA AL increased by 9.7% to 150.9 million euros. Telco EBITDA AL posted a yoy increase of 9.9% to 141.7 million euros, while Audiovisual and Cinema EBITDA AL increased by 6.4% to 9.2 million euros.

Consolidated OPEX after leases increased 5.1% yoy to 242.9 million euros, mainly driven by Telco with a 4.0% yoy increase and by a 11.9% increase in Audiovisuals & Cinema costs due to increased royalty costs from strong ticket sales. Our focus is to sustain a positive margin trajectory as we explore avenues to optimize our cost structure despite global inflationary pressures. During this quarter, certain cost items were more adversely impacted by inflation related adjustments, namely wages and salaries, external services, particularly those entailing substantial labour related costs such as maintenance and suport services. Leasing costs increased as a reflection of the additional tower sale executed in 2022, with inflationary adjustments capped at 2%. With a positive impact, we continued to optimize energy costs which remained a tailwind to yoy EBITDA AL progression.

Consolidated Net Results for 2Q23 increased 3.0% yoy totaling 45.5 million euros. EBITDA performance of 10.0% yoy was dampened by higher levels of D&A, up by 5.1% to 116.6 million euros due to higher CAPEX levels over the past two years, and also due to an accounting reduction in the useful life of TV set top boxes and Internet routers. Net financial costs increased to 16.5 million euros in 2Q23 versus 8.9 million euros in 2Q22, due to the maturity this last May of the 1.125% 2018 – 2023 DCM bond and the refinancing in the context of a more challenging interest rate environment. ZAP operations were negatively impacted by exchange rate variations, resulting in a negative impact of 4.2 million euros in the quarter vs 2Q22. Income Taxes were lower in 2Q23 primarily due to incentives mainly for research and development related investments.

CAPEX

Total CAPEX, excluding leasing contracts and other contractual rights decreased 12.8% yoy to 98.1 million euros, remaining at same level of the last quarter in a row total capex remains below 100 milion, confirming the strong deceleration of 5G deployment. 5G coverage of the population already reaches almost 90% of the population, reflecting our strategic commitment to lead in the delivery of exceptional connectivity solutions to all our customers, nationwide. Overall Telco Technical CAPEX amounted to 59.3 million euros, of which 21.6 related to network expansion, substitution, and integration projects, down more than 33% YoY. During the period, customer-related CAPEX amounted to 34.3 million euros, a decline of 1.9% yoy, reflecting a marginal slowdown in commercial momentum.

EBITDA AL minus total CAPEX excluding leases and other contractual rights more than doubled yoy to 52.7 million euros. Strong EBITDA AL performance and the ongoing reduction in CAPEX requirements are translating, as anticipated, into considerably more robust cash flow momentum. During 2Q23 Total Free Cash Flow before dividends, financial investements and own shares acquisition was 36.2 million euros, reflecting a yoy increase of 18.3%, impacted positively by Operating Cash Flow, interest paid increasing yoy as expected, cash taxes being impacted in the quarter by a non recurrent related to the tower sale capital gain booked in 2022.

In 2Q23 NOS paid 220 million euros in dividends to shareholders (43 cents per share), in respect of FY22 results distribution and as approved by the AGM held in April 2023. This distribution represented an increase of 54.5% in comparison with the previous year and was composed of an ordinary dividend of 27.8 cents per share and an extraordinary dividend of 15.2 cents per share linked to the capital gain and FCF generated by the completion of the tower sale transaction closed in 2022.

As of the end of 2Q23, NOS had a total net debt, including leasings and long-term contracts (according to IFRS16) of 1,799.5 million euros. Net financial debt stood at 1,155.3 million euros.

NOS maintains a solid liquidity position, with available commercial paper programmes unissued totalling 275 million euros, and cash & equivalents totalling 10.9 million euros. Net financial debt / EBITDA AL stood at 2.03x in 2Q23 following the dividend payment, which in line with NOS' target leverage ratio of around 2x Net Financial Debt / EBITDA AL, this ratio should go comfortably below the 2x until the end of 2023.

The all-in average cost of debt for 2Q23 was 3.3%, an increase versus last quarter reflecting the increasing interest rate context, as well as the refinancing of the 300 million euros DCM Bond, which was paying a 1.125% coupon and was redeemed in May.

As at 30 June 2023, the proportion of NOS' issued debt paying interest at a fixed rate was approximately 24%. Additionally, 33% of the issued debt had interest rate hedging collars in place.

At the end of 2Q23, the average maturity of NOS debt stood at 3.1 years.
