Highlights

Q1 organic service revenue grew 2.2%*; Europe 0.8%* (1.8%* ex regulation), AMAP 7.9%*

Good momentum in Europe: robust growth in Italy and Spain, similar underlying trends in Germany, UK recovering

Acceleration in AMAP: Vodacom 5.6%* (International 7.9%*), Turkey 13.9%*

India (-13.9%*) stabilising quarter-on-quarter, as low-end share gains mitigate continued unitary price declines

Sustained data growth of 63%; ‘more-for-more’ propositions stabilising consumer ARPU in Europe

Continued momentum in fixed: 300,000 broadband net adds

Enterprise up 1.5%*, led by share gains in fixed and ongoing success in IoT (up 15.1%*)

Vittorio Colao, Group Chief Executive, commented:

"We have made a good start to the year in Europe, where our commercial momentum remains robust, and growth accelerated across AMAP. Although competition in India remains intense, service revenues stabilised compared with the prior quarter. Our substantial investments in network leadership, an excellent customer experience and even greater ‘more-for-more’ propositions for customers are enabling us to monetise strong demand for mobile data. We are gaining profitable market share in broadband, and a growing proportion of our customers now take our fully converged offers. Our world-leading Internet of Things platform contributed to another quarter of solid growth in Enterprise. In addition, we are executing our ‘Fit for Growth’ cost efficiency programme in line with our plans. Overall, this performance gives us confidence in reiterating our outlook for the year."
