In 2Q 2020 Orange Polska reports resilient performance and maintains full-year EBITDAaL growth guidance

* From 2020 we have revised definitions of capex and EBITDAaL alternative performance measures. Capex is now presented net of the accrued proceeds from asset disposals and is named economic capex (eCapex). Consequently, EBITDAaL excludes gains on asset disposals. This change reflects better transformation of Orange Polska fixed asset base which has been rapidly evolving over the past few years and will do so in the future. We invest in assets essential for our future value creation (fibre and mobile network) and dispose assets no longer necessary for our core operations. Economic benefits of this transformation have been shifted from EBITDAaL to Capex.

** In Q2 2020 data for 2019 and 1Q 2020 have been retrospectively restated for the additional impact of the IFRS16 scope as described in the Financial Statements in Note 3

2Q 2020 Highlights:

  • EBITDAaL (EBITDA after Leases) up 10.0% year-on-year reflecting:
    • resilient performance of core telco services,
    • significant impact of mitigating measures combined with continued cost optimisation (indirect costs down 13% year-on-year)
    • increased provisioning related to the pandemic
  • Taking into account strong performance in 1H and launch of mitigating measures, we maintain our 2020 EBITDAaL growth guidance. However we continue to closely monitor the situation

Revenues up 2.5% year-on-year reflecting:

  • revenues combining convergence, mono mobile and mono broadband up 2.3% yoy reflect positive impact of more for more strategy and negative impact from roaming
  • 46% yoy growth of IT/IS combining robust organic growth and contribution of BlueSoft
  • 13% yoy growth of mobile wholesale resulting from surge in traffic related to pandemic
  • equipment revenues down only 13% yoy resulting from relatively quick relaxation and gradual recovery of customer demand
  • Strong commercial performance in fixed broadband and mobile services:
    • +8% year-on-year growth of B2C convergent customers, +23k net adds in 2Q Convergence ARPO +3.4% year-on-year
    • +2% year-on-year growth of total fixed broadband customers, +22k net adds in 2Q
      • FBB mono ARPO +5.6% year-on-year
    • +40% year-on-year growth of fibre customers, +44k net adds in 2Q (the second highest quarterly result repeated)
    • +3% year-on-year growth of post-paid mobile handset customers, +65k net adds in 2Q
  • eCapex (economic capex) at PLN 476 million, -4% year-on-year, reflects slowdown of investments to offset potentially low proceeds from sale of assets
  • 4.6 million households connectable with fibre at the end of June (209k added in 2Q)
  • Organic Cash Flow at PLN 438 million reflects strong EBITDAaL growth and c.PLN 120m shift in payments to 2H supporting working capital

Commenting on 2Q 2020 performance, Jean-François Fallacher, Chief Executive Officer, said:

"We were pleased to see a relatively quick, progressive re-opening of the economy since the beginning of May, which translated into gradual return of the demand for our services. Traffic in shops remained far below the pre-pandemic levels; however its conversion to sales decisions was higher. Commercial performance in 2Q was strong especially in fixed broadband. We saw increased demand for copper broadband while in fibre, net customer additions of 44,000 repeated our second-best result ever, achieved during the previous quarter. In mobile handset offers net additions were above 1Q and also better than 2Q last year. They were helped by lower churn especially during the lockdown. Not surprisingly recovery on the business market is more challenging than on the consumer market.

In the light of the delay in the C-band spectrum allocation, in July we have launched 5G service on a dedicated part of our 2.1GHz spectrum using dynamic spectrum sharing (DSS) technology. It is currently available for around 6 million people, mainly in the centres of the big cities. We have made 5G available only in the high-end post-paid tariffs.

As promised, we have adopted a number of measures mitigating some of the impact of the pandemic on our results. These measures significantly helped us to achieve strong profitability growth in 2Q and make us more confident than a quarter ago about reaching our full-year EBITDAaL growth guidance. I would like to thank our social partners, for engaging in a dialogue with us and for coming-up with a compromise that serves the best interests of the Company and its employees. Poland's economy is expected to contract in the second half of the year which causes us to remain cautious going forward especially with respect to the performance on the business market.

As you know I will be leaving Orange Polska at the end of August to take up another position within the Orange Group. I am proud of the performance Orange Polska achieved during my tenure and confident in the ability of my successor Julien Ducarroz to take the company from strength to strength."

Financial Review

Revenues up 2.5% year-on-year driven by core telecom services and IT/IS

Revenues totalled PLN 2,828 million in 2Q 2020 and were up 2.5% year-on-year or PLN 69 million. There were four main factors influencing this revenue trend.

Firstly, combined revenues of convergence, mobile-only and fixed-broadband were up 2.3% year-on-year. This performance is mainly driven by continued growth in convergence ARPO (up 3.4% year-on-year) and turnaround in fixed broadband only ARPO (up 5.6% year-on-year), an outcome of our 'more for more' strategy. On the negative side, trend in mobile only service revenue deteriorated due to c.50% year-on-year drop in roaming revenues as a consequence of the pandemic.

Secondly, revenues from IT and integration services grew 46% year-on-year, thanks to a combination of robust organic growth (22% year-on-year) and the consolidation of BlueSoft (a contribution of PLN 39 million in 2Q).

Thirdly, mobile wholesale revenues were up 13% year-on-year reflecting much higher voice traffic as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Fourthly, decline in revenues from equipment sales was contained to only 13% year-on-year due to gradual return of customer demand and our successful commercial actions.

Strong commercial performance in fixed broadband and mobile services

Our commercial activity is mainly focused on delivering a package of mobile and fixed services, which we define as convergence. It is our competitive edge, it increases customer loyalty and allows us to upsell more services, winning a higher share of household media and telecom budgets.

In 2Q 2020 our B2C convergent customer base increased by 23,000 and 8% year-on-year. At the end of June, 63% of our B2C broadband customers were convergent versus 60% a year ago. In B2C mobile handset customer base, penetration of convergence increased to 51% versus 48% at the end of June 2019. ARPO from convergent customers continued to grow and was up 3.4% year-on-year increasing to PLN 105.4. It was a result of our value strategy, upsell of additional services as well as due to increased usage of our VoIP and VoD services during the lockdown.

Total fixed broadband customer base increased in 2Q 2020 by 22,000 and 2.2% year-on-year. It was the highest quarterly increase in six quarters. It was driven by continued growth of fibre customer base which expanded 40% year-on-year, adding 44,000 in 2Q (the second highest ever quarterly result repeated) but also lower decrease of copper broadband customer base. It decreased 33,000 versus 41,000 in 1Q 2020 and 37,000 a year ago. It was supported by lowerthan-previously churn. It needs to be highlighted that ARPO from broadband-only services was up as much as 5.6% year-on-year and 2.3% quarter-on-quarter. The key contributors of this strong performance were last year's price increases and growing share of fibre customers. Fibre customers generate the highest ARPO which is mainly fuelled by high share of TV services and increasing share of customers in single family houses (who pay higher price).

Total mobile post-paid customer base increased by 162,000 in 2Q 2020, or by 4.6% year-onyear. In handset offers, net customer additions of 65,000 were higher than last year and higher than in the previous quarter despite the pandemic. They were supported by lower churn. In 2Q post-paid churn ratio stood at 2.1% compared to 2.5% in the previous quarter. ARPO from mobile-only handset offers was down 5.2% year-on-year, compared to 2.1% decline in 1Q 2020. However this trend was affected by significantly lower roaming revenues mainly on the business market. Excluding roaming this ARPO was down only 0.9% year-on-year.

Number of our reported pre-paid services shrunk by 113,000 or 2% in 2Q mainly due to much lower activations of new pre-paid cards. This was a consequence of pandemic-related reduced small business activity and much lower sales to foreign residents.

In fixed voice, 2Q net loss of lines was contained to 36,000 compared to 75,000 in 1Q 2020 as churn was positively impacted by the lockdown period.

Launched mitigating measures significantly contributed to performance in 2Q

As preannounced during 1Q results publication the management has launched a number of measures in operating costs and capex to partially mitigate the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Company's business goals. They had significant positive influence on our 2Q results as well as they will contribute to the performance in the remainder of the year. Curtailment of jubilee awards scheme resulted in PLN 64 million reversal of provisions for employee benefits and will result in lower cash outflows in the years to come. In negotiations with Company's trade unions we have amended Social Agreement reducing the rate of basic salary increase in 2020 from 3.5% to 1.0%. At the same time further dismissals in the process of collective redundancies in 2020 were frozen. On top of that operating costs in 2Q benefitted from rigorous freeze that was implemented in all non-essential business areas. We have also successfully renegotiated certain rental contracts. In capital expenditures we have slowed down certain projects in the light of more difficult business environment for real estate disposals resulting from the pandemic. This is in order to keep eCapex (economic capex) for the full-year in the guided range.

2Q EBITDAaL +10% yoy reflecting strong core service revenues, increased provisioning (due to pandemic) and mitgating measures

EBITDAaL for 2Q 2020 came in at PLN 728 million and was up 10.0% year-on-year. Direct margin (a difference between revenues and direct costs) was down PLN 56 million year-on-year. Its evolution deteriorated as positive impact of strong performance of core service revenue lines was more than offset by pandemic-related provisioning for bad debts and certain contractual obligations. However trend in the indirect cost significantly improved: they were down as much as 13% year-on-year. This reflected significant positive impact from mitigating measures launched by the management (including PLN 64 million provision reversal linked to jubilee awards booked in the labour costs) and ongoing cost optimisation across all cost categories.

Bottom line reflects higher depreciation and lower gains on asset disposals

Net income for 2Q 2020 came in at PLN 52 million flat year-on-year. Growth of EBITDAaL has not translated into the bottom line for two main reasons. Firstly, depreciation was up 11% year-onyear (PLN 61 million) resulting from our continuous investments in the telecommunication networks. Secondly, gains on asset disposals were PLN 39 million below last year. On the positive side, net finance costs were lower than last year. This combined lower interest expense (due to lower level of debt and lower effective cost of debt) and benefits of strengthening of PLN vs EURO (which translated into foreign exchange gains and lower discount expense).

Organic Cash Flow reflects strong EBITDAaL growth and shift in payments of c.PLN120 million to 2H

Organic cash flow for 2Q 2020 was PLN 438 million, a significant improvement over PLN 83 million generated in 2Q 2019. This particular growth stemmed from three factors. Firstly, strong EBITDAaL growth combined with lower interest payments (reflecting different timing of payments and lower cost of debt) translated into PLN 104 million better cash from operating activities (before working capital). Secondly, working capital improved by as much as PLN 190 million yearon-year. However around PLN 120 million of that improvement resulted from a shift of payments into 2H. Finally, capital expenditure cash outflows were PLN 86 million down year-on-year due to lower capex of the current period.

Commenting on 2Q 2020 results, Jacek Kunicki, Chief Financial Officer, said:

"Our 2Q results proved the resilience of our business model to the impact of the pandemic and our ability to adapt well to this unprecedented situation. Robust, 10% year-on-year EBITDAaL growth combined with our underlying turnaround (best visible in improving ARPO evolution and good growth of fibre) and the strong positive impact of our mitigating measures to amplify the ongoing cost transformation. These helped us to offset the first impacts of the COVID-19 crisis; mainly lower sales of mobile services and equipment, as well as additional cost provisions. Our particularly high cash generation reflected the underlying strong operating performance, lower capital expenditures (slowed down in order to compensate the potential shortfall of real estate sales), as well as delay of social security payments in line with the anti-crisis legislation.

Our solid 1H results, as well as the impact of the mitigating measures we initiated allow us to maintain our EBITDAaL growth ambition for 2020. Nonetheless, we remain cautious regarding the potential economic impact of the crisis in the second half of the year, especially in the B2B segment, and taking into account the uncertainty, we will continue to monitor the situation and reevaluate the COVID-19 impact on our results on a continuous basis."
