JO LUNDER, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMMENTS:
VimpelCom has delivered strong operational performance across all business units in the fourth quarter of 2011, driving organic revenue growth of 5%, stable EBITDA and strong cash flows of USD 1.8 billion in the period. The final dividend payment of USD 0.35 per common share underscores the Companys commitment to pay annual dividends of at least USD 0.80 per common share from 2011 to 2014.
In Russia, we are implementing our plans to improve the business performance and we regained market share during the year, which we intend to maintain while increasing our focus on profitable growth. In Italy, we saw further market share increases in the mobile and fixed line segments. Data revenues grew strongly in both these markets and in the Ukraine. Our Africa & Asia business unit continued to deliver excellent subscriber growth and the CIS unit produced double digit revenue growth.
Our focus in 2012 will continue to be on the delivery of our Value Agenda and the 2011 results provide a good platform for profitable growth and improved cash flows. The process of integrating the businesses acquired in 2011 is now completed and in 2012 we expect to leverage the benefits of our increased size and capabilities.

STRATEGIC UPDATE
Announced Value Agenda for 2012-2014 at Analyst & Investor Day
Spin-off of certain OTH assets completed in February 2012
Integration of Wind Telecom completed
Revenue and EBITDA objective for 2012 to 2014 CAGR of around mid single digit
VimpelCom continued its progress in the fourth quarter against its strategic priorities, highlighted by the presentation on November 15, 2011 of the Companys Value Agenda for 2012-2014.
The Value Agenda is focused on improving the net cash from operating activities by delivering
Profitable growth,
Operational excellence, and
Capital efficiency
VimpelComs objectives* for the period 2012 - 2014 are:
Revenue and EBITDA CAGR of around mid single digits,
Net Debt / EBITDA below 2x by the end of 2014, and
Capex / Revenues, excluding licenses, below 15% by the end of 2014.
In Russia, for example, VimpelCom is implementing an operational excellence program that aims to deliver at least RUR 5 billion in cost savings in 2012. The program includes the following projects:
Network sharing and outsourcing initiatives to decrease network maintenance costs,
Optimized structure of dealer commissions,
Optimized cash collection, and
Increasing productivity through organizational structure optimization.
In addition, VimpelCom launched a customer experience program in Russia, which is focused on enhancing the Beeline brand and improving customer loyalty and actively managing churn.
Part of the Value Agenda 2012-2014 is formed by a strategic portfolio analysis. Following a detailed business plan review of our operations in Vietnam and Cambodia, we have booked an impairment of 527 million dollars.
- The above objectives assume constant currency movements, no major regulatory changes, current asset portfolio mix and a stable macroeconomic environment.
The Company decided not to exercise its call option to acquire an additional 24.95% stake in Euroset Holding N.V. (Euroset). VimpelCom owns 49.9% of the Euroset group since October 2008. VimpelComs partnership with Euroset has been and will continue to be a substantial part of VimpelComs distribution strategy in the Russian market.
The Group secured a revolving credit facility of approximately USD 500 million for VimpelCom Amsterdam B.V. and a separate revolving credit facility of approximately USD 475 million for OJSC Vimpel-Communications (OJSC VimpelCom). These credit facilities are in line with the overall Group strategy to provide the Company with increased flexibility in managing its cash levels and will be used for general corporate purposes.
The program to capture synergies of at least USD 2.5 billion in NPV is finalized, and the last step of implementation will take place in 2012 and 2013.
The organizational integration process was completed at the end of 2011, allowing VimpelCom to start 2012, with the full focus on delivering on the Companys Value Agenda. The newly appointed Deputy CEO & COO, Jan Edvard Thygesen, will have the operational responsibility for liaising directly with the business unit operations and focusing on operational excellence as part of the Value Agenda.
Effective January 16, 2012 Anton Kudryashov started as the new Head of the Business Unit Russia, and his task will be to focus on the execution of the Value Agenda in that Business Unit.
In February 2012, VimpelCom completed the spin-off of certain assets of OTH to Weather Investments II S.à r.l. (Weather II). The principal spin-off assets include OTHs investments in ECMS and Mobinil in Egypt and koryolink in North Korea. The completion of the spin-off of these assets fulfills VimpelComs spin-off obligations in connection with its acquisition of Wind Telecom S.p.A. from Weather II.
In February 2012, the arbitration regarding the pre-emptive rights related to the Wind Telecom transaction was withdrawn.

VIMPELCOM GROUP FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS 4Q11
Total mobile subscriber base increased by 13% YoY to 205 million
Organic revenue growth of 5% YoY; revenues of USD 5.9 billion
EBITDA, at constant currency, was stable YoY at USD 2.2 billion
Net cash from operating activities was USD 1.8 billion
Actual Net income attributable to VimpelCom Ltd. was USD 386 million negative, mainly impacted by non-cash items related to PPA and impairments of USD 437 million
CAPEX excl. licenses of USD 2.1 billion; incl. licenses USD 3.9 billion
Net debt / LTM EBITDA was 2.6x at the end of the fourth quarter
OPERATING PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
The total mobile subscriber base increased 13% YoY to 205 million by the end of the fourth quarter. The largest absolute contribution came from accelerated growth in subscribers in the Africa & Asia Business Unit. The Company also achieved strong growth in fixed and mobile broadband in Russia, Italy and Ukraine.
In Russia, the subscriber growth rate decreased in the fourth quarter compared to the third quarter, in line with the announced strategy to focus on profitable growth. Mobile broadband subscribers in Russia increased 32% YoY to 2.5 million and fixed broadband subscribers grew 46% YoY to almost 2.1 million.
The Companys Italian business continued to outperform the broader Italian telecom market in the fourth quarter despite the ongoing weak macroeconomic environment and unfavorable regulatory developments. VimpelCom strengthened its market position in Italy in both mobile and fixed-line, increasing its revenue share in both segments. The fixed broadband subscriber base increased 12% YoY to more than 2.1 million, with an increase in Fixed Broadband
revenues of 21% YoY, while Mobile broadband revenues increased 43% YoY.
In the Africa & Asia Business Unit, the Company achieved strong growth in its subscriber base across all countries of operation, exceeding 82 million in total. Solid performance across the main operations led to organic revenue growth of 5% YoY. Reported net operating revenues increased by 3% YoY, adversely impacted by local currency devaluation against the USD in the main operating countries of Algeria, Pakistan and Bangladesh, as well as the liquidation of the handset business of Ring.
The Ukraine Business Unit continued to deliver healthy top line revenue growth in mobile and fixed data revenues and doubled its fixed line broadband subscribers. Mobile data revenue grew 12% YoY to UAH 218 million driven by increased usage of data services in USB modem offers and within the new bundled tariff plans.
The CIS Business Unit delivered double digit revenue growth in all of its markets with the exception of Armenia, and was able to maintain high quality subscriber growth.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
PRO FORMA 4Q11
Total net operating revenues in the fourth quarter 2011 increased by 4% YoY, with strong performance across most business units. Overall underlying organic revenue growth was 5%.
Unfavorable currency movements led to a decline of 3% in EBITDA YoY. Excluding these forex effects, EBITDA was stable compared to the same period last year. Solid organic EBITDA growth was seen in emerging markets of the business units of CIS and Africa & Asia, up 11% and 10% respectively. In the Europe & North America Business Unit EBITDA excluding forex remained stable. Overall growth was offset by the YoY organic decline in Russia and Ukraine business units.
CAPEX stood at USD 2.1 billion, excluding licenses, with investments in the further roll out of the mobile networks in Russia, Bangladesh, Pakistan and the CIS. In Italy, we continued to invest in the roll-out of HSDPA and in the backbone capacity to support the growth in data. Including licenses CAPEX was USD 3.9 billion, due to investments related to the LTE frequencies in Italy and 2G license renewal in Bangladesh. The 2G license renewal fee in Bangladesh was booked as accrued (accounting) CAPEX since the company received the title for the license while the payment will be made in installments. The actual amount paid in Q4 was USD 118 million and the remaining part of approximately USD 138 million is deferred. The LTE license fee in Italy was booked for an amount of
approximately EUR 1.1 billion. It was fully funded by using cash available at the Company of EUR 0.2 billion, a bridge facility of EUR 0.5 billion and a loan provided by the government of EUR 0.4 billion.
ACTUAL 4Q11
On an actual basis, revenues more than doubled YoY and EBITDA increased by 76% YoY as a result of the combination with Wind Telecom in April 2011.
EBIT declined by 62% over the same period of 2010 due to the impairments in the South-East Asia region and the impact of the Purchase Price Allocation (PPA).
Net income from continuing operations was also negatively impacted by the aforementioned non-cash items for a total amount of USD 652 million and by higher interest expenses, resulting from higher gross debt after the acquisition of Wind Telecom. Forex and other losses, mainly due to unrealized forex losses of USD 110 million and fair value adjustments of USD 147 million, also added to the decline in Net Income.
The unrealized forex loss of USD 110 million is mainly attributable to USD 61 million of depreciation of the EUR against the USD and USD 34 million due to the devaluation of the BDT (Bangladesh Taka) against the USD.

| Net cash used in/(provided) financing activities | -674 | 1,481 | n.m. | -2,582 | 2,864 |
Total assets increased by 173% to USD 54.5 billion, primarily as a result of the acquisition of Wind Telecom in April, 2011. Gross debt increased in the quarter from USD 26.0 billion to USD 27.0 billion, mainly due to the financing of the LTE license in Italy. Net debt was USD 24.4 billion, leading to a net debt to FY11 EBITDA of 2.6x on a pro forma basis at the end of the year.
Net cash from operating activities at the Group level was positively impacted by the strong cash flow generation from the operating activities.
Net cash from investing activities was mainly impacted by the investments in LTE licenses in Italy and payments for extensions of 2G licenses in Bangladesh coupled with the higher investments in property and equipment and the consolidation of Wind Telecom.
Net cash used in financing activities in 4Q11 was mainly the result of payments of dividends and obtaining external financing for license acquisitions.
NON-CASH ITEMS IN 4Q11 AND FY11
IMPAIRMENTS
On a regular basis the Company performs an impairment test per cash generating unit. Following a detailed business plan review of our operations in Vietnam and Cambodia, we have booked an impairment of 527 million dollars.
PURCHASE PRICE ALLOCATION
During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company further refined the Purchase Price Allocation (PPA) with regards to the acquisition of Wind Telecom as is a standard requirement under applicable accounting standards. With the PPA the purchase price is allocated to the Wind Telecom assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. Any difference between the purchase consideration transferred to the former owners of Wind Telecom, and the estimated net fair values of the assets
acquired and liabilities assumed has been recognized as goodwill. The PPA is still subject to further revisions.
With the further update of the Purchase Price Allocation of Wind Telecom (PPA) and the finalization of the valuation of the acquired Wind Telecom intangible assets the Company adjusted retroactively the linear amortization model towards a model based on value contribution for the customer relationships. With this change benefits and costs are better matched. Effectively, this means that there will be higher amortization in the earlier years and lower in the later years. The catch-up effect of this adjustment has, based on the applicable accounting rules, been retroactively adjusted to Q2 and Q3, negatively impacting Net Income from continuing operations for USD 45 million and USD 82 million respectively.

BUSINESS UNIT RUSSIA FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS
Strong growth in mobile subscribers with a substantial increase in mobile broadband subscribers
Solid revenue growth of 10% YoY
Double digit revenue increase in Mobile and fixed broadband
4Q11 EBITDA margin at 37.1% impacted by price adjustments, revenue mix and cost increases
FY11 EBITDA margin at 40.1%, with a mobile margin of 42.8%
In Russia, the subscriber growth rate decreased in the fourth quarter compared to the third quarter, in line with the announced strategy to focus on profitable growth. In 4Q11, the results of the Russia Business Unit were still impacted by the investments in previous quarters aiming at growing the subscriber base in both the fixed and mobile segments. Revenues increased substantially as a result, but pressure on EBITDA margins continued.
In 4Q11, however the first signs of stabilization and improvement were visible in the YoY increase in the absolute gross margin recorded in the fourth quarter, improving over the previous quarters trend in 2011. VimpelCom is now implementing a new dealer commission structure, based on revenue sharing instead of upfront payments. As previously communicated, the Company is also in the process of implementing its RUR 5 billion operational excellence program and is on track to reach the targeted savings in 2012. In line with the announced strategy, VimpelCom intends to drive profitable growth in the Russian market through a number of initiatives including the following projects:
Network sharing, like fiber and towers,
Improve efficiency in network operations through closer cooperation with vendors,
Improve sales efficiency through focus on optimal sales mix for each sales channel,
Optimize cash collection, and
Increasing productivity through organizational structure optimization.
VimpelCom has also launched a customer experience program in Russia, which is focused on enhancing the Beeline brand and improving customer loyalty. To improve profitability, the Company is promoting higher margin data service revenue streams and rebalancing tariff plans in favor of on-net calls.
KEY DEVELOPMENTS 4Q11
Mobile subscriber base grew 10% YoY to 57.2 million, while mobile broadband subscribers increased 32% YoY to 2.5 million.
Total revenues continued to accelerate with 10% YoY growth to RUR 71.0 billion. Mobile revenues increased 10% YoY due to an increase in voice, data and sales of devices.
Mobile data revenue was up 41% YoY. The Company believes this is one of the most promising growth drivers in Russia and continues its efforts to enhance smartphone penetration and stimulate data usage. Mobile data traffic grew 183% YoY.
Fixed-line revenues increased 12% YoY driven by continuing growth in fixed broadband revenues, up 57% YoY. Together with mobile data, this segment is rapidly becoming an increasingly important contributor to revenue.
Fixed broadband subscribers increased to more than 2 million, up 46% YoY.
Total EBITDA margin decreased in 4Q11 to 37.1%. The decline was due to APPM reduction driven by competition, growth in low-margin handset sales and a write-off of obsolete handset inventory of approximately RUR 300 million, as well as forex impact costs related to calls to the CIS countries.
Full year 2011 EBITDA margin was in line with previously communicated management expectations.
In 4Q11, VimpelCom optimized its tariff portfolio by improving the traffic mix and stimulating data services usage and continued to ramp up the operational excellence program aimed at curtailing costs in sales and marketing expenses, technical and IT.
In 4Q11, capex increased by 2% YoY focused on improving and further extending network quality and coverage. As of the end of 2011, IPTV service was provided in 34 cities with an active subscriber base of 570 thousand. The Company will continue to invest in the 3G network development to match its main competitors in VimpelComs 43 key regions.

BUSINESS UNIT EUROPE & NA - FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS ITALY
Continued relative outperformance in Italy with 2% underlying revenue growth, excl. MTR impact
Stable EBITDA, leading to margin expansion to 37.4%
Solid subscriber growth across all market segments: mobile subscribers up 5%, fixed voice subscribers up 5% and fixed broadband subscribers up 12%
Impressive mobile data growth with mobile Internet revenues up 43%; mobile data ARPU increased 14%
Strong Fixed-line broadband performance with revenues up 21% and fixed Broadband ARPU increasing 7%
In Italy, WIND continued to outperform the market in the fourth quarter of 2011 despite ongoing competitive pressure, regulatory headwinds and macroeconomic uncertainties in the period. The marginal decline in service revenues, mainly caused by the 26% cut in mobile termination rate in July 2011, was fully offset by operational excellence cost initiatives and certain one-off items, which resulted in a stable EBITDA over 4Q10.
WINDs mobile data offerings continued to deliver strong results in 4Q11 with Mobile Internet revenues increasing by over 43% YoY, as a result of growing penetration of smartphones, tablets and data dongles. Messaging revenues delivered a solid 13% growth YoY. With an HSDPA population coverage on par with its main competitors WIND is well positioned to benefit from expected data growth in the coming years, and the LTE spectrum secured in September will enable WIND to effectively compete in this market.
In fixed-line, the Italian market returned to a normal subscriber growth trend after a slowdown in 3Q11 mainly caused by customer base clean-ups amongst certain competitors. WIND saw strong growth in consumer service revenues, up 8%, which were however offset by a decrease in corporate service revenues. WINDs fixed Broadband business continued to deliver strong performance in 4Q11 with revenues increasing 21% YoY while fixed-line voice revenues in the quarter remained stable.
KEY DEVELOPMENTS 4Q11
Total revenues decreased in 4Q11 by 1.5% YoY to EUR 1,424 million with an underlying growth (excl. MTR cut) of 2%
Mobile service revenues in 4Q11 declined 2.3% as a result of MTR cut, net of which service revenues would have increased 2.5%; fixed-line service revenues in the quarter declined marginally (-0.7% YoY)
EBITDA reached EUR 533 million in 4Q11, stable YoY, delivering a solid overall margin of 37.4%. Both mobile and fixed line EBITDA were stable YoY in absolute terms, resulting in margins of 43.6% and 20.9%, respectively
Capex in 4Q11, excluding LTE spectrum, reached EUR 389 million bringing the total for 2011 to EUR 995 million; investments were dedicated to expanding coverage and capacity on the HSDPA mobile network, to LLU sites unbundling and backhauling capacity to support the strong growth in data.
WIND continued to deliver solid subscriber growth in the mobile segment in 4Q11 with its customer base increasing 5% to over 21 million driven by the success of bundle offerings and growth in Mobile broadband, which saw subscribers increase by 13% YoY.
Mobile Data ARPU increased by 14% in 4Q11 to 3.8, as a result of solid growth in traditional data and Mobile Internet, reaching 25% of total Mobile ARPU; Total Mobile ARPU declined 8% in 4Q11 driven by decline in Voice ARPU resulting from the sharp cut in MTR and by strong growth in data-only SIM cards which do not generate voice revenues.
The fixed-line business also continued to perform strongly in 4Q11 with voice subscribers growing 5% to 3.14 million, driven by the solid increase in higher value direct voice subscribers, up 8% to almost 2.4 million. The Broadband customer base grew significantly YoY, exceeding 2.13 million subscribers, an increase of 12%. WINDs core dual play offerings also continued to perform strongly with a 10% YoY increase in subscribers to 1.74 million
Fixed-line ARPU was stable at EUR 33.2 in 4Q11 with the decline in voice ARPU fully compensated by the double digit increase in Data ARPU. In particular Broadband ARPU witnessed a solid 7% increase over 4Q10 to EUR 19.1.
In December 2011 the new MTR glide path was announced by the Regulator: 2.5c from July 2012, 1.5c from January 2013 and 0.98c from July 2013.

CANADA
Globalive Wireless Management Corp., operating its wireless business under the brand name WIND Mobile, celebrated its second year of operation in the Canadian market. Following the re-launch of the WIND Mobile brand during 3Q11, WIND successfully executed on its new postpaid strategy by renewing its handset program to include larger subsidies and a broader range of high-end handsets. This has expanded WINDs target market to overlap more directly with the incumbent Canadian operators across all their brands, including in their higher value customer segments and thus driving lower churn, higher ARPU, better credit quality and higher lifetime value customers. The effect has been positive as more than 50% of WIND Mobiles gross additions in 4Q11 were postpaid sales; postpaid net additions in 4Q11 were 41 thousand.
WIND also recorded positive net additions in prepaid in a quarter where prepaid net additions for the Canadian incumbent operators were negative, but WINDs approach reflected a conscious and disciplined mandate not to match competition purely on lower prices.
WIND grew its distribution materially, ending 2011 with 211 WIND Mobile-branded locations and a total of 453 points of sale. WIND also focused heavily on its network, with a clear goal to speed up site deployment, quality, and data speed by upgrading the network to HSPA+.
WIND has increased its coverage to over 12.7 million people, representing 37% of Canadas total population and 47% of the licensed populace.

BUSINESS UNIT AFRICA & ASIA - FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS
Subscriber base surpassed 82 million, a 18% increase YoY
Organic revenue growth of 5% YoY
Net operating revenues increased 3% YoY to USD 922 million
EBITDA increased organically by 10% YoY
EBITDA margin stood at 35%
Strong operational performance in Algeria with EBITDA margin of 59.5%
In the fourth quarter of 2011, net operating revenues in Africa & Asia increased by 3% YoY, impacted by local currency devaluation against the USD in the main operating countries of Algeria, Pakistan and Bangladesh, as well as the liquidation of the handset business of Ring. Consequently, EBITDA showed a decline of 5% YoY, while the consolidated EBITDA margin stood at 34.8%. However, revenue and EBITDA demonstrated an organic growth of 5% and 10% respectively. It is worth noting that EBITDA growth surpassed revenue growth in most operations as a result of the companys focus on driving profitable growth as well as operational excellence and capital efficiency programs. Local currency and operational performance show significant growth across the board. The performance per operation is described in local currency.
ALGERIA (DJEZZY)
Algerias subscribers increased 10% YoY, as a result of controlling churn alongside successful customer acquisitions. ARPU for 4Q11 showed a decline of 7% as compared to 4Q10, due to the penetration of lower income segments, in addition to an accounting provision concerning a loyalty program. Revenues increased 3% YoY, mostly driven by the growth in Djezzys subscriber base, while EBITDA increased 18% YoY as a result of successful Opex savings this quarter, resulting in an EBITDA margin of 59.5%. CAPEX declined in comparison to 4Q10, as a result of the ongoing ban on foreign currency transfers preventing the payment of essential suppliers, as well as the importing of equipment critical to network maintenance and necessary expansion.
PAKISTAN (MOBILINK)
Mobilinks subscriber base grew almost 8% YoY after expanding its portfolio of location-based promotions and focusing on high-quality acquisitions by introducing new pre-paid and postpaid sales promotions. In addition, reactivation promotions were launched to help control churn, which culminated in successful customer retention. Revenues were up 4% in 4Q11 compared to the previous year, mainly due to an increase in subscribers, steady VAS uptake, as well as higher administrative fees on scratch cards. EBITDA was positively impacted by higher revenues, and declining cost of sales, such as lower interconnect and SIM card costs, leading to a YoY increase of 10%. CAPEX increased 128% YoY due to the continued focus on network and IT development for Mobilink.
BANGLADESH (BANGLALINK)
In Bangladesh the subscriber base showed an impressive growth of 23% YoY, driven by a more aggressive acquisition strategy following the SIM Tax reduction in June 2011, as well as loyalty programs and reactivation promotions. The accelerated growth of subscribers in rural and youth market segments led to an ARPU dilution of 6% compared to 4Q10. Revenues grew almost 17% this quarter, as a result of tariff revisions, aggressive competitive moves, and a focus on VAS. EBITDA decreased 4%, mainly attributable to rising SIM tax subsidies related to strong customer acquisitions. CAPEX increased 311% YoY mainly as a result of the 2G license renewal.
SUB SAHARAN AFRICA (TELECEL GLOBE)
Telecel Globe subscribers increased 6% YoY mostly driven by a surge in Burundis and Zimbabwes customer bases, as a result of increased penetration into rural areas, as well as improved sales and distribution channels performance. It is also worth noting the impressive growth in subscribers compared to 3Q 2011, which was boosted by Zimbabwes recapturing of subscribers after a dip in 1H 2011. Revenues for Telecel Globe declined by 5% YoY as a result of the sale of the operation in Namibia, in addition to currency devaluation in Burundi. On a comparable basis, excluding the sale of Powercom Ltd. in Namibia, revenues display an increase of 8.6% YoY. Meanwhile, EBITDA experienced a significant decline compared to 4Q10 due to retroactive tax adjustments in CAR, in addition to an exceptional tax assessment and bad debt provision in Burundi.
SOUTH EAST ASIA
The subscriber base exceeded 4 million customers. Laos launched its 3G services on 31 December 2011, offering data bundles to its customers. Revenues for South East Asia increased 236% YoY. Notwithstanding these indicators, the Company booked an impairment of USD 527 million related to its operations in Vietnam and Cambodia, as a detailed business plan review led to significant downward growth perspectives for these businesses.

BUSINESS UNIT CIS FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS*
Double digit organic revenue growth continues in all markets except in Armenia
EBITDA increased organically by 11%; EBITDA of USD 171 million
EBITDA margin of 40.8%
Doubling mobile data revenue YoY to USD 25 million; significant mobile broadband subscriber increase
Overall, the CIS Business Unit continued to deliver strong operational and financial results. Despite intensified competition, revenues continued to grow at double-digit rates YoY in all CIS markets, except Armenia, as a result of improving macroeconomic conditions, strong product offerings, and efficient sales and marketing efforts.
In 4Q11, total revenues grew 16% YoY to USD 419 million.
Total mobile revenue increased by 18% YoY in 4Q11 mainly driven by voice revenues increase, as a result of sales and active subscriber base growth. However, the greatest growth potential was seen in data revenue, which doubled YoY with an increasing data traffic trend.
In 4Q11, fixed-line revenue decreased slightly YoY, impacted by wholesale revenue stream decline in the quarter in all countries.
Consolidated EBITDA was USD 171 million, up 11% YoY.
EBITDA margin was 40.8% in 4Q11, impacted by aggressive competition in key markets and year-end marketing campaigns to attract new subscribers and secure market positions.
Capex decreased YoY by 6% in 4Q11. The network expansion continues to support voice and data traffic growth. 2011 was the first year of 3G network development in Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.
KAZAKHSTAN
Kazakhstan, the Companys largest market in the CIS, demonstrated revenue growth of 11% YoY in 4Q11 despite continuing competitive pressure.

Kyrgyzstan continues to demonstrate positive dynamics in subscriber base and revenue growth which resulted in solid EBITDA performance with a 34% increase in 4Q11 YoY. APPM remained stable YoY in 4Q11, accompanied by growth in usage of both voice and VAS services. Data usage trends drove a significant mobile data revenue increase of 151% YoY.
TAJIKISTAN
In Tajikistan, VimpelCom saw a 20% increase in revenue YoY for 4Q11 due to growth of sales and voice revenue, as well as growth of international traffic termination and transit traffic termination volume. EBITDA increased 7% YoY due to solid revenue performance.
GEORGIA

ATTACHMENT E: DEFINITIONS
EBITDA is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization. VimpelCom calculates EBITDA as operating income before depreciation, amortization and impairment loss and includes certain non-operating losses and gains mainly represented by litigation provisions for all of its Business Units except for its Russia Business Unit. The Russia Business Units EBITDA is calculated as operating income before depreciation and amortization. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of the results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Historically our management used OIBDA (defined as operating income before depreciation, amortization and impairment losses) instead of EBITDA. Following the acquisition of Wind Telecom, our management concluded that EBITDA is a more appropriate measure because it is more widely used amongst European-based analysts and investors to assess the performance of an entity and compare it with other market players. Our management uses EBITDA and EBITDA margin as supplemental performance measures and believes that EBITDA and EBITDA margin provide useful information to investors because they are indicators of the strength and performance of the Companys business operations, including its ability to fund discretionary spending, such as capital expenditures, acquisitions and other investments, as well as indicating its ability to incur and service debt. In addition, the components of EBITDA include the key revenue and expense items for which the Companys operating managers are responsible and upon which their performance is evaluated. EBITDA also assists management and investors by increasing the comparability of the Companys performance against the performance of other telecommunications companies that provide EBITDA information. This increased comparability is achieved by excluding the potentially inconsistent effects between periods or companies of depreciation, amortization and impairment losses, which items may significantly affect operating income between periods. However, our EBITDA results may not be directly comparable to other companies reported EBITDA results due to variances and adjustments in the components of EBITDA (including our calculation of EBITDA) or calculation measures. Additionally, a limitation of EBITDAs use as a performance measure is that it does not reflect the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues or the need to replace capital equipment over time. Reconciliation of EBITDA to net income attributable to VimpelCom Ltd., the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, is presented above.
EBITDA margin is calculated as EBITDA divided by net operating revenues, expressed as a percentage.
EBIT is a non-U.S. GAAP measure and is calculated as EBITDA plus depreciation, amortization and impairment loss. Our management uses EBIT as a supplemental performance measure and believes that it provides useful information of earnings of the Company before making accruals for financial income and expenses and Net foreign exchange (loss)/gain and others. Reconciliation of EBIT to net income attributable to VimpelCom Ltd., the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, is presented above.
Net foreign exchange (loss)/gain and others represents the sum of Net foreign exchange (loss)/gain, Equity in net (loss)/gain of associates and Other (expense)/income, net (primarily losses from derivative instruments), and is adjusted for certain non-operating losses and gains mainly represented by litigation provisions. Our management uses Net foreign exchange (loss)/gain and others as a supplemental performance measure and believes that it provides useful information about the impact of our debt denominated in foreign currencies on our results of operations due to fluctuations in exchange rates, the performance of our equity investees and other losses and gains the Company needs to manage to run the business.
EBT is a non-U.S. GAAP measure and is calculated as EBIT minus Financial income and expenses (which is calculated by subtracting interest income from interest expense) and Net foreign exchange (loss)/gain and others. VimpelComs management uses EBT as a supplemental performance measure and believes that it provides useful information about earnings of the Company before making accruals for income tax expenses. Reconciliation of EBT to net income attributable to VimpelCom Ltd., the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, is presented above.
ARPU (Monthly Average Revenue per User) is calculated by dividing service revenue during the relevant period, including revenue from voice-, roaming-, interconnect-, and value added services (including mobile data, SMS, MMS), but excluding revenue from connection fees, sales of handsets and accessories and other non-service revenue, by the average number of subscribers during the period and dividing by the number of months in that period. For business unit Africa & Asia (except SEA) visitors roaming revenue is excluded from service revenues.

Broadband subscribers are the customer contracts that served as a basis for revenue generating activity in the three months prior to the measurement date, as a result of activities including monthly internet access using FTTB and xDSL technologies as well as mobile internet access via WiFi and USB modems using 3G/HSDPA technologies. Italian subsidiary measures broadband subscribers based on the number of active contracts signed. Russian business unit includes IPTV activities.
Capital expenditures (Capex) , purchases of new equipment, new construction, upgrades, software, other long lived assets and related reasonable costs incurred prior to intended use of the non current asset, accounted at the earliest event of advance payment or delivery. Long-lived assets acquired in business combinations are not included in capital expenditures.
Households passed are households located within buildings, in which indoor installation of all the FTTB equipment necessary to install terminal residential equipment has been completed.
Mobile subscribers are SIM-cards registered in the system as of a measurement date, users of which generated revenue at any time during the three months prior to the measurement date. This includes revenue coming from any incoming and outgoing calls, subscription fee accruals, debits related to service, outgoing SMS, Multimedia Messaging Service (referred to as MMS), data transmission and receipt sessions, but does not include incoming SMS and MMS sent by VimpelCom or abandoned calls. VimpelComs total number of mobile subscribers also includes SIM-cards for use of mobile Internet service via USB modems and subscribers for WiFi. The number for Italy is based on SIM-cards, users of which generated revenue at any time during the twelve months prior to the measurement date. For the purpose of this earnings release, we include all subscribers of Zimbabwe, which is accounted for as investment at cost, into business unit Africa & Asia and subscribers of all our Canada equity investee into business unit Europe and North America, both of which are included into total subscribers of VimpelCom.
MOU (Monthly Average Minutes of Use per User) is calculated by dividing the total number of minutes of usage for incoming and outgoing calls during the relevant period (excluding guest roamers) by the average number of mobile subscribers during the period and dividing by the number of months in that period.
Net debt is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure and is calculated as the sum of interest bearing long-term debt and short-term debt minus cash and cash equivalents, long-term and short-term deposits and fair value hedge. The Company believes that net debt provides useful information to investors because it shows the amount of debt outstanding to be paid after using available cash and cash equivalent and long-term and short-term deposits. Net debt should not be considered in isolation as an alternative to long-term debt and short-term debt, or any other measure of the company financial position. Reconciliation of net debt to long-term debt and short-term debt, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures, is presented below in the reconciliation tables section.
Reportable segments , the Company identified Russia, Europe and North America, Africa & Asia, CIS and Ukraine based on the business activities in different geographical areas. Although Georgia is no longer a member of the CIS, consistent with VimpelComs historic reporting practice VimpelCom continues to include Georgia in its CIS reporting segment. Intersegment revenues are eliminated in consolidation.
Organic growth Revenue and EBITDA are non-U.S. GAAP financial measures that reflect changes in Revenue and EBITDA excluding foreign currency movements and other factors, such as business under liquidation, disposals, mergers and acquisitions. We believe investors should consider these measures as they are more indicative of our ongoing performance and management uses these measures to evaluate the Companys operational results and trends.
