The increase in 2Q-2021 Revenue is primarily attributable to the Fiber & Networking component.

The slight change in the value of Arpu was largely offset by the performance of the customer base, which in the second quarter of 2021 showed strong progress compared with both the same period of the previous year (+38.4%) and the first quarter of 2021 (+7%).
The increase over 2Q-2020 applies to both the Business Customer market, which is up 11.8% (up 4% over 1Q 2021) and the Retail Customer sector, which is up 45.9% (up 7.7% over 1Q 2021).
