(1) EBITDA is defined as Total Revenues minus operating cost and expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization). We believe that EBITDA is a meaningful measure of our performance. It is commonly used to analyze and compare media companies based on operating performance, leverage and liquidity. Nonetheless, EBITDA is not a measure of net income or cash flow from operations and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, an indication of our financial performance, an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or a measure of liquidity. Other companies may compute EBITDA in a different manner; therefore, EBITDA as reported by other companies may not be comparable to EBITDA as we report it.
(2 ) EBITDA Margin is defined as EBITDA over Total Revenues.
OPERATING RESULTS
Total Revenues reached Ps. 1,030,771 million in 9M23, a decrease of 8.1% in real terms compared to Ps. 1,122,215 million in 9M22, mainly driven by the difficulty of increasing prices for services along with an increasingly higher inflation rate.

Mobile Services Revenues decreased by 6.2% in real terms to Ps. 418,261 as of 9M23, mainly as a result of the challenge presented by the increasing inflation which couldn´t be totally passed through to prices.
In Argentina, Personal mobile subscribers reached approximately 20.8 million (+759 thousand compared to 9M22) and around 39% of them are postpaid. Mobile internet revenues reached 92% of Personal Argentina service revenues. Mobile ARPU decreased 7.7% in real terms during the 9M23 compared to 9M22 (Ps. 2,060.5 in 9M23 vs Ps. 2,231.5 in 9M22). Mobile churn was 1.8% as of 9M23, compared to 2.4% in 9M22.
On the infrastructure side, our subsidiary Telecom continued to enhance the mobile internet experience of its clients through the deployment of the 4G and 4G+ networks throughout the country, reaching more than 14.9 million clients with 4G devices. During 9M23, the 4G technology traffic represented 96.7% of the total traffic.
In addition, it has been preparing its network for the arrival of 5G technology by expanding coverage, availability, and capacity of the network through technologic reconversion and continuing the deployment of 4G. During 1H23, 97 sites with mobile DSS 5G antennas were enabled in some of the country's main cities (totaling 240 sites with this technology), with the goal of preparing the technical and regulatory conditions that allow the full development of the 5G network. In this direction, it acquired a 100MHz spectrum block in the 3.5GHz Band through public bidding, to start 5G deployment.
As of September 30, 2023, Núcleo customer base increased 1.6% to 2.4 million subscribers, of which 22% are postpaid. Revenues from Núcleo services were Ps 34,383 million in 9M23, a decrease of 9.8% compared to 9M22, mainly due to a decrease in ARPU measured in constant pesos, partially offset by the appreciation of the Guaraní vis a vis the Argentine Peso.
Internet Services Revenues dropped 7.2% in real terms to Ps. 221,488 in 9M23 mainly due to a 9.5% lower Broadband ARPU. Of the 4.1 million broadband customers reached in 9M23, around 84% subscribed to services with speeds of 100Mb or higher. Monthly churn increased to 1.7% in 9M23, from 1.5% in 9M22.
Telecom Argentina continues deploying FTTH technology (Fiber To The Home), improving clients' connectivity experience with symmetric speeds of up to 500 Mb, with low latency and multiple devices connected, among other advantages. As part of the initiatives to continue evolving the customer experience of fixed internet services, during the end of this year, Telecom doubled the internet speed to all its home customers (with HFC, FTTH technology).
Cable TV Services Revenues amounted to Ps. 185,380 million in 9M23, a decrease of 14.2% compared to 9M22, mainly due to the challenge presented by the increasing inflation that cannot be fully passed through to the price of the service, which translates into lower revenues in Constant Pesos and to the change of consumer habits of our clients. Cable TV ARPU reached Ps. 5,876.5 in 9M23, a decrease of 5.9% compared to 9M22. Additionally, Cable TV churn increased to 1.8% in 9M23 from 1.3% in 9M22.
During the first nine months of 2023 our subsidiary Telecom continued boosting its entertainment proposal with innovative content and new national and international productions, positioning itself as the most important integral platform in Argentina.
In addition, it continued activating the ISDBT digitalization service solution to its analogical customers, which allows clients to connect to a digital service from the traditional cable connection without needing a decoder.
Fixed Telephony and Data Services Revenues reached Ps. 121,423 million in 9M23, a decrease of 12.9% compared to 9M22, mainly due the restatement effect as of September 30, 2023 and a decrease in the fixed telephony customer base. Additionally, ARPU in fixed telephony reached Ps. 2,694.5 in 9M23, decreasing 6.3% when compared to 9M22.
On the corporate segment side, our subsidiary Telecom continued to develop a series of initiatives aimed at businesses, accompanying them in their digital transformation process, helping them evolve and grow their e-commerce platforms, logistics and inventory, among others.
In addition, it continues adding proposals to its cybersecurity services portfolio.
Revenues from equipment sales totaled Ps. 75,526 million in 9M23, a rise of 3.6% in real terms compared to 9M22, mainly due to an increase in the quantities sold.
Consolidated Operating Costs and Expenses (Excluding D&A and impairment of PP&E and intangible assets) totaled Ps. 734,263 million in 9M23, a decrease of Ps. 66,892 million in real terms, or 8.3% compared to 9M22.
This reduction in costs and expenses was mainly the result of lower salaries and severance payments; lower costs related to service revenues: programming and content costs and taxes and fees with the regulatory authority; as well as savings in other costs: other operating income and expense, fees for services, maintenance, materials and supplies, interconnection and transmission costs, bad debt, and commissions and advertising costs; partially offset by higher cost of equipment and handsets. More than 99.8% of the costs and expenses are related to Telecom Argentina operations.
EBITDA reached Ps. 296,508 million in 9M23, a decrease of 7.6% in real terms from Ps. 321,060 million reported for 9M22, mainly driven by lower revenues, partially offset by lower operating costs.
Depreciation, amortization and impairment of PP&E, intangible assets and rights-of-use amounted to Ps. 346,588 million in 9M23, a decrease of 56.8% in real terms compared to 9M22, mainly as a result of the impairment of goodwill registered in 9M22.
Equity in earnings from unconsolidated affiliates totaled Ps. 1,178 million in 9M23, compared to Ps. 815 million in 9M22.
Financial Results net totaled Ps. 61,600 million as of 9M23, compared to Ps. 175,421 million in 9M22, mainly as a result of lower positive FX differences, given the smaller gap between FX variation and inflation rate; lower positive inflation adjustments results and higher debt interest costs; partially offset by lower negative results of operations with securities and bonds.
Income tax as of September 30, 2023 reached Ps. 75,855 million, from Ps. (10,263) million in September 2022.
Net Income for the period totaled Ps. 86,196 million in 9M23, compared to a net loss of Ps. (314,530) million reported for the same period of 2022. The Equity Shareholders net income for the period amounted to Ps. 31,722 million.
