RESULTS BY REGIONAL BUSINESS UNITS
Telefonica O2 Europe
At the end of June 2007, Telefonica O2 Europe revenue was 7,068 million euros
(5,828 million euros in 2006), and operating income before depreciation and
amortization (OIBDA) reached 3,100 million euros (1,758 million euros in 2006),
which included restructuring charges totaling 114 million euros related to the
UK, Ireland and German businesses, as well as the capital gain from the sale of
Airwave (1,296 million euros). Operating Income (OI) was 1,350 million euros in
the first half, mainly affected by the impact of higher assets amortizations
derived from the Purchasing Price Allocation (PPA) process, which also impacted
negatively the 2006 OI figure (187 million euros).
Telefonica O2 Europe CapEx for the 6 month period ended 30 June 2007 amounted to
963 million euros (1,055 million euros in the same period of last year).
FINANCIAL TARGETS:1
• Telefonica O2 Europe
Revenue growth for the 12 months to December 2007 remains unchanged and is
expected to be in the range +11%/+14%. OIBDA growth is also unchanged and is
expected to be in the range +7%/+10%.
Capital expenditure for the group is expected to be less than 2,200 million
euros.
• O2 UK
Revenue growth is expected to be in the range +15%/+18%. OIBDA growth is
expected to be in the range +9%/+12%.
• O2 Germany (including Telefonica Deutschland)
Due to the challenging conditions in the German mobile market, revenue
growth is now expected to be in the range +7%/+10%, with positive service
revenue growth year-on-year, expected by the end of the year. To better
position the business for the future, additional investment in the growth
plans will be brought forward into the second half of 2007 and consequently
OIBDA growth is now expected to be in the range +21%/+25%.
• Telefonica O2 Czech Republic (including Telefonica O2 Slovakia)
Revenue growth is expected to be in the range +1%/+3%. OIBDA is expected to
be in the range -1%/+0%, due primarily to the costs associated with the
Slovakia business. Capital expenditure is expected to be around 9,000
million Czech Crowns.
Strategic and operational highlights:
• Management changes. In June Telefonica O2 Europe announced a number of
changes to its Board of Directors. Rudi Groger will become chairman of a
newly-created Supervisory Committee of the German business. His successor as
chief executive of O2 Germany is Jaime Smith, formerly chief executive of
Telefonica O2 Czech Republic. Salvador Anglada becomes the new chief executive
of Telefonica O2 Czech Republic. Both will report directly to Peter Erskine,
chairman and CEO of Telefonica O2 Europe, and sit on the Board of Directors of
the Company.
The Supervisory Committee of O2 Germany comes into existence on 1 October
2007 and will provide independent insight and advice on German market
developments to the management of the business. Until this point, Rudi
Groger will be working closely with Jaime Smith to ensure a smooth
transition.
• The O2 opens in London. In May 2005, AEG announced that it had joined
forces with O2 to transform the former Millennium Dome and the surrounding area
into the UK's most exciting and technically advanced music, sport and
entertainment destination. It has been renamed The O2 and opened in June 2007.
The centrepiece of the multi-million pound development is an indoor arena
for over 20,000 fans that will host over 150 world-class music,
entertainment and sport events in its first year of opening. There is also a
live music venue - indigO2 - with a capacity of over 2,300, a world-class
exhibition space that will host the Tutankhamen exhibition from November
2007, an eleven-screen state-of-the-art cinema complex, and a vibrant -
Entertainment Avenue- featuring a variety of bars, restaurants, and leisure
facilities. The O2 is one of the official venues for the London 2012
Olympics, hosting both the gymnastic and basketball finals.
The O2 will offer a selection of benefits to O2 customers. There will be
access to exclusive pre-sale tickets and exclusive music content. At the
venue O2 customers will have the chance to upgrade their seats, and get fast
track entry through special 'blue lanes' and access the blueroom bar for a
true VIP experience. The O2 is an integral part of O2's strategy to deliver
a great customer experience, and differentiate from the rest of the market.
• Ireland launches Wireless Broadband. On 9 July O2 Ireland launched its
O2 Broadband service, offering wireless broadband at speeds of up to 3.6Mbps,
utilising HSDPA (High Speed Downlink Packet Access) technology, which currently
covers 75% of the population.
The new service offers a viable alternative to fixed broadband in the home,
providing one of the fastest and easiest ways for customers in Ireland to
get Internet and email access, whether they are at home, in the office or on
the move. O2 mobile voice customers will receive a discount on the standard
monthly Broadband tariff.
• Telefonica O2 Czech Republic and Slovakia lower roaming charges. In
advance of the holiday season, Telefonica O2 Czech Republic launched the O2
Smart Roaming tariff with reductions of up to 82 % on calls made from 14 popular
holiday destinations. The O2 Smart Roaming tariff covers the most popular summer
destinations for Czech holidaymakers: Croatia, Slovakia, France, Italy, Spain,
Cyprus, Malta, Bulgaria and Greece, as well as non-European destinations -
Egypt, Turkey, Malaysia and Thailand. Calls back to the Czech Republic and
within the 'Smart Roaming' country visited are charged at a flat-rate of 9.90
Czech Crowns/min. Customers can also save on calling from the rest of the EU.
• Telefonica O2 Slovakia launches first post-pay product. In May the
Slovak business announced the launch of O2 Vo'nost', its first post-pay tariff
which customers can tailor to their own needs, offering no fixed contract term
or commitment. With two of the tariffs (O2 Vo'nost' 835 and 500), a range of
subsidised phones is also available.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 2006 base reported figures include eleven months of O2 Group (consolidated
since Feb.06), three months of start-up losses in Slovakia, and exclude Airwave
results. 2007 guidance assumes constant exchange rates as of 2006, and exclude
changes in consolidation. OIBDA excludes other exceptional revenues/expenses not
foreseeable in 2007. Personnel restructuring and Real Estate Programs are
included as operating revenues/expenses, except for those decided after guidance
was set at the beginning of the year (redundancies in O2 Group and Real Estate
Program in TEF O2 CR). For comparison, the equivalent other exceptional revenues
/expenses registered in 2006 are also deducted from reported figures.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
O2 UK
Total revenues in the April-June period were 1,828 million euros, an increase of
10.6% in local currency compared to the same period of last year. For the 6
months to 30 June 2007, total revenues were 3,587 million euros, an increase of
32.0% in local currency compared to the 5 month period to 30 June 2006. On a
like for like basis total revenue growth was 10.4%. Net service revenue for the
3 months to 30 June 2007 was 1,689 million euros, an increase of 11.4% in local
currency compared to the same period last year, driven by continued strong
customer and ARPU growth.
Operating income before depreciation and amortization (OIBDA) for the 3 months
to 30 June 2007 was 468 million euros, an increase of 5.1% in local currency
compared to the same period of last year. OIBDA in the first half totalled 890
million euros, an increase of 18.6% in local currency compared to the 5 month
period to 30 June 2006. On a like for like basis, OIBDA was flat. OIBDA in the
second quarter included a restructuring charge of 14.8 million euros relating
mainly to the reorganisation of the sales and marketing teams. Excluding this
charge, growth in local currency would have been 8.4% in the second quarter. As
expected, this reverses the trend seen in the first quarter, when on a like for
like basis OIBDA declined by 4.6%.
OIBDA margin in the second quarter was 25.6%, compared to 26.9% in the same
quarter in 2006 and 24.0% in the previous quarter. Excluding the restructuring
charge, margin would have been 26.4%. OIBDA margin for the first half was 24.8%,
while excluding restructuring charges it was 25.2%
The quarter again saw tough competition in the market, but the business
continued to perform well. Gross additions in the quarter were around 10% lower
than the same period in 2006, reflecting the increasingly mature nature of the
UK market but also the focus on customer retention. A total of 34,000 net new
customers were added in the quarter, taking the base to 17.8 million, 5.8%
higher than at the same time last year (excluding the Tesco Mobile customer
base, which reported 1.4 million customers at the beginning of the year). O2
UK's own channels accounted for over 60% of gross connections in the second
quarter.
A total of 76,000 net new contract customers were added in the second quarter
and at the end of the period contract customers made up 35.8% of the total base,
compared to 34.9% in the same period last year. Quarterly monthly contract ARPU
of 63.9 euros was up 2.4% quarter on quarter in local currency, due to increased
minutes of use, and up 0.6% compared to the second quarter last year. Contract
churn fell to 1.8% in the quarter, from 2.0% in the second quarter last year.
The number of pre-pay customers fell by 42,000 during the second quarter,
reflecting migrations from prepay to contract, along with the highly penetrated
market. However, those customers that left had, on average, a lower monthly
spend. Quarterly monthly pre-pay ARPU of 18.2 euros was 4.0% higher in local
currency than the second quarter last year and 8.4% higher than the first
quarter, reflecting the retention of higher value customers.
As a result, O2 UK's blended monthly ARPU of 34.5 euros was 4.9% higher than
the first quarter in local currency, and 2.8% higher than the second quarter of
last year, reflecting the increased weight of contract customers in the base,
and the continued growth in data ARPU offsetting declines in voice ARPU.
Quarterly monthly minutes of use were up 11.7% year-on-year at 189 minutes a
month, driven by propositions such as 'Long Weekends' and 'Favourite Place'.
Data ARPU of 11.0 euros was 8.6% higher in local currency than the same period
last year driven primarily by growth in text message volumes, up 18.7%, as well
as increasing usage of a range of non-SMS services, and 1.0% higher than the
previous quarter.
O2 UK's broadband unit Be had rolled out to over 770 exchanges by the end of
the quarter, giving its broadband network a population coverage of almost 50%,
with 31,000 customers.
CapEx in the second quarter was 182 million euros, with continued investment in
both the 3G network and existing 2G network to ensure a high level of service.
O2 UK promoted a number of products and services during the quarter, aimed at
acquisition and retention of customers and revenue growth. These included:
• Favourite Place - Pay and Go customers get 500 free minutes every
month to use from their 'favourite place'. Customers register the postcode of
their favourite place and need to top-up £10 or more a month for 500 free
minutes to UK landlines and O2 mobiles.
• Improvements to Best for Business calling plans - from 27 April, O2
business customers on corporate bundles received free calls to colleagues and to
any O2 mobile - including family and friends. This upgraded proposition
represents great value for business customers and sets O2 apart from the other
mobile operators in the business sector.
• Pay and Go Online customers 'number 1' offer - an extra 500 free
minutes to a chosen O2 mobile for 3 months, subject to a £10 minimum monthly
top-up.
• Launch of the BlackBerry Curve 8300 - O2 was the first mobile operator
in the UK to make the device available to customers.
O2 GERMANY
O2 Germany includes Telefonica Deutschland and comparable 2006 figures have been
restated on this basis. Total revenues in the 3 months to 30 June 2007 were 861
million euros, a decrease of 2.9% compared to the three month period ended 30
June 2006. Year to date total revenue was 1,703 million euros, an increase of
16.4% compared to the five month period to 30 June 2006. On a like for like
basis, revenue declined by 2.9%.
Mobile service revenue for the 3 months to 30 June 2007 was 727 million euros,
down 3.8% compared to the same period last year, an improvement in the trend
seen in the first quarter (which saw a decline of 4.6%), reflecting the
continued ARPU weakness in the German market and the impact of the 20%
termination rate cut in November 2006, partly offset by growth of the customer
base. The termination rate cut reduced second quarter service revenue by over
4%.
Operating income before depreciation and amortization (OIBDA) for the 3 months
to 30 June 2007 was 98 million euros, a decrease of 49.8% compared to the same
period in 2006. OIBDA in the second quarter included an exceptional charge of
96.5 million euros in respect of a structural reorganisation, which will
strengthen customer facing units while the number of employees in central and
supporting functions will be reduced by around 700. In total O2 Germany mobile
will reduce its headcount from around 4,700 to around 4,000 employees. At the
same time, units and departments will be merged to accelerate decision making
processes as well as time to market for product innovations. This
re-organisation will better position the business for the future growth
opportunities that the German market presents in both mobile and DSL. Excluding
this charge, OIBDA would have been 194 million euros, broadly flat compared to
the same period last year. For the six months period, cumulative OIBDA is 259
million euros, a decline of 20.4% compared to the 5 month period to 30 June
2006. On a like for like basis, the decline was 29.1%.
OIBDA margin in the second quarter was 11.4%, compared to 22.0% in the same
quarter last year, reflecting the consolidation of Telefonica Deutschland, as
well as the aforementioned exceptional charge (margin would have been 22.6% in
the second quarter excluding this charge). OIBDA margin for the first half was
15.2%, and 20.9% excluding restructuring charges.
In a highly competitive environment, a total of 374,000 net new customers were
added in the quarter, taking the base to 11.6 million, 11.8% higher than at the
same time last year. The Tchibo Mobile customer base grew by 40,000 to 913,000
by the end of the quarter.
O2 Germany added a total of 191,000 net new contract customers in the quarter,
with quarterly monthly ARPU of 35.2 euros, 2.7% higher than the previous
quarter, and 10.1% lower than the same quarter last year. This reflected the
impact of the termination rate cut in November 2006, seasonal usage patterns,
increasing competition in the German market and the introduction of new customer
offers.
A total of 183,000 net new pre-pay customers were added in the quarter.
Quarterly monthly ARPU of 6.7 euros was 1.3% lower than the previous quarter and
24.9% lower than the second quarter last year, reflecting in addition to the
above mentioned factors, higher market penetration and the growth in multiple
SIM ownership. Additional pre-pay customer acquisition campaigns featuring both
new O2 propositions and new offers from partners, will be launched during the
rest of the year.
Blended quarterly monthly ARPU in the second quarter was 20.9 euros, an increase
of 2.0% from the previous quarter, but 13.5% lower than the same quarter last
year. This trend reflects the ongoing impact of the termination rate cuts, the
rapid growth in the pre-pay customer base over the past 12 months, which now
makes up 50% of the total base, and the increasingly competitive market
environment. Termination rate cuts reduced monthly ARPU in the quarter by
approximately 3 euros.
Blended quarterly monthly minutes of use grew by 3.7% year-on-year to 133
minutes, driven by new propositions such as Genion flat rate and Genion S/M/L.
O2 Germany now has a total of 4.1 million Genion customers (70% of the post-pay
base), with 62% of all net new post-pay customers opting for one of the Genion
tariffs.
Monthly data ARPU was 5.1 euros, broadly flat compared to the previous quarter
and 5.5% lower than the second quarter last year due to the higher number of
lower spending pre-pay users in the base and a shift from SMS to voice usage
with the introduction of flat rate voice tariffs. To address the imbalance of
voice vs. data and SMS tariffs, O2 Germany refreshed its data and SMS packs
during the second quarter.
O2 DSL had acquired 34,000 customers by the end of the second quarter, with
Telefonica Deutschland reporting 339,000 ULL lines in total, from around 40,000
lines at the end of the second quarter in 2006. Equivalent ADSL lines in service
reached just over 796,000 at the end of June, from 400,000 at the end of June
last year. The broadband market grew by approximately 1.3 million lines in the
second quarter, or around 8%, slightly lower than in the first quarter due to
the strike action at Deutsche Telekom. Telefonica Deutschland took around 13% of
the market net additions in the second quarter. The ULL network now includes
over 1,850 local exchanges, giving population coverage of nearly 50%.
CapEx in the quarter was 203 million euros with continued expenditure on both
the 3G and 2G networks.
O2 Germany launched a number of new products and services during the quarter,
including:
• The Family&Office flat rate for O2 DSL. Calls from the fixed net DSL
line to up to 5 mobile numbers are free. O2 also reduced the basic fee of all
three DSL tariffs (S/M/L) by 10 euros.
• The new 'O2 Surf Card' and O2 Surf Box mini. Both offer customers fast
and easy Internet access on the move. The O2 Surf Card is aimed at business
customers who need to access their company network and offers download speed of
up to 3.6 Mbit/s. The O2 Surf Box mini is targeted at consumers.
• Mobile Music non-stop: in July, the 'MTV-Music-Pack from O2' was
launched. O2 customers are able to download the MTV top 10 hits every week to
their mobile for only 5 euros per month. They can also view the latest MTV
Mobile Channel videos, using a 3G device. In addition, subscribers to the MTV
Music-Packs enjoy a special price of only 99 cents per track download at the O2
Music Shop.
• O2 Genion special offer: customers signing up for the O2 Genion L
tariff can chose from a selection of high-end handsets for only 1 euro.
• The Xda nova, a tri band device which supports GSM/GPRS/EDGE and also
includes Bluetooth, WiFi, a 2 megapixel camera and a 1 GB microSD card, but
weighs only 112g. It uses the innovative TouchFLO touch screen interface. In
combination with a Genion L contract the device costs 49.99 euros.
O2 IRELAND
Total revenues in the 3 months to 30 June 2007 were 249 million euros, an
increase of 3.9% compared to the same period last year. Revenue for the 6 month
period to 30 June 2007 was 487 million euros, an increase of 23.1% compared to
the 5 month period to 30 June 2006. On a like for like basis growth was 2.8%.
Mobile service revenue for the second quarter was 237 million euros, an increase
of 4.5% compared to the same period last year, reflecting the growth of the
customer base and the increase in blended ARPU. The termination rate cut reduced
second quarter service revenue by just under 1%.
Operating income before depreciation and amortization (OIBDA) for the second
quarter was 86 million euros, broadly flat compared to the same period last
year. An exceptional charge of 2.8 million euros was included in OIBDA, related
to the restructuring of various departments within the business and the costs
associated with the integration of the O2 Retail Head Office into Corporate
Headquarters. Excluding this charge, OIBDA would have grown by 3.5%. OIBDA
margin in the second quarter was 34.5%, and excluding the charge would have been
35.6%.
In a competitive market O2 Ireland traded well, with gross connections at a
broadly similar level to the second quarter last year. At the end of June the
total customer base was 1.6 million customers, 2.1% higher than at the same time
last year.
O2 Ireland added a total of 14,000 net new contract customers in the quarter.
Quarterly monthly ARPU of 83.8 euros was 5.0% lower than the second quarter last
year but 2.2% ahead of the previous quarter.
Due to the impact of increased competitor activity, the pre-pay customer base
fell during the quarter, by 15,000 customers. Monthly pre-pay ARPU was 30.0
euros, an increase of 2.0% on the same period a year ago and 7.0% compared to
the previous quarter.
Blended monthly ARPU of 46.7 euros was reduced by approximately 0.4 euros due to
the termination rate cut and was 1.8% higher than the same quarter last year and
down 5.6% higher than the previous quarter.
Quarterly monthly minutes of use increased by 4.7% year-on-year to 249 minutes,
mainly due to the higher proportion of post-pay subscribers in the base.
Monthly data ARPU was 11.2 euros, 17.5% higher than the second quarter last year
but 3.2% lower than the first quarter.
In addition O2 Ireland launched a number of pricing initiatives and services
during the quarter. These included:
• O2 Friends, a major new pricing initiative for Speak easy customers.
The offer entitles all Speak easy customers to make 1c calls at off peak hours
and at weekends to three friends of their choice on the O2 network until 2009.
Customers are required to top up their phone by at least 20 euros every month.
• The Xda Orbit, exclusive to O2, featuring GPS technology and Windows
Mobile Email, and the Blackberry Curve. In June the company also launched a
major new nationwide advertising campaign 'Let's change the way we work'
designed to promote the benefits that mobile technology can bring to the work/
life balance.
• O2 Ireland also continued to trial broadcast mobile TV with 350
consumers in the Greater Dublin area using state of the art Nokia N92 handsets.
Research results from the trial will be released in the next quarter.
TELEFONICA O2 CZECH REPUBLIC
Total revenues for the first six months of the year amounted to 1,095 million
euros, an increase of 3.1% in local currency. The Czech mobile business was the
key driver of this growth, with the Czech fixed line business reporting a slight
increase in revenues year-on-year, confirming the trend seen in the first
quarter.
Operating income before depreciation and amortization (OIBDA) in the first half
was 504 million euros, a decrease of 2.2% in local currency compared to the
first half of 2006, giving a margin of 46.0%, 2.5 percentage points lower than
the same period last year, with around 2 points coming from the impact of the
Slovak operations.
Total CapEx for the Telefonica O2 Czech Republic in the first half amounted to
98 million euros, an increase of 2.5% in local currency, mainly related to the
deployment of infrastructure in Slovakia.
The Czech mobile business maintained its focus on developing attractive voice
and data packages, along with its policy of prepaid to contract migration. Total
business revenues for the Czech mobile business grew by 5.5% year-on-year in
local currency in the first half to reach 558 million euros, with a 6.1%
increase in the second quarter alone.
The total number of mobile customers reached 4.9 million at the end of June, and
increase of 2.6% year-on-year. A total of 111,000 net contract customers were
added in the second quarter, bringing the total contract base to 2.1 million, an
increase of 20.3% year-on-year, with contract customers representing 42.4% of
the total customer base, up from 36.2% a year ago. Contract monthly ARPU of 32.2
euros was down 8.0% year-on-year in local currency, reflecting the migration of
prepay customers, but stable compared to the previous quarter (up 0.9%).
The pre-pay customer base declined by 7.4% year-on-year to 2.8 million at the
end of June, mainly due to the pre-pay to contract migration strategy. Monthly
ARPU of 8.8 euros was up 4.2% in local currency compared to the second quarter
last year and up 7.3% compared to the first quarter.
Blended monthly ARPU was 18.5 euros, an increase of 3.4% year-on-year in local
currency, with minutes of use growing 16.9% to 120 minutes.
Activities in the Czech fixed line business continued to focus on the
development of broadband services and increasingly the ICT/Business Solutions
area. The business introduced a new range of bundles and converged propositions
in the first half of the year, in particular the O2 Duo and O2 Trio bundles,
combining flat-rate fixed voice tariffs with ADSL and/or IPTV and O2 Duo Mobil,
which combines mobile with ADSL or IPTV services.
The total number of fixed telephony accesses fell by 17.2% to reach 2.2 million
at the end of June, with net disconnections of 81,000 in the second quarter,
compared to 114,000 in the previous quarter. Total broadband ADSL accesses
(retail+wholesale) reached 526,000 at the end of June, with 24,000 net new
accesses in the second quarter. The total number of O2 TV customers increased to
38,000 at the end of June, a net gain of 12,000 in the second quarter.
Total business revenues for the Czech fixed line business grew by 0.3%
year-on-year in local currency in the first half to reach 535 million euros,
with a year-on-year increase of 0.7% in the second quarter alone. Year-on-year
growth of 18.3% in Internet and Broadband revenues for the first half of the
year, together with growing revenues from IT and Business Solutions, driven by
new contract wins from Government institutions, offset the decline in revenues
from the traditional voice and access business.
Telefonica O2 Slovakia. In the second quarter the company continued to rollout
its own mobile network, targeting 400 sites by September 2007 to fulfill license
conditions. The company also successfully completed the first phase of its
direct sales network rollout, opening 12 brand shops. The distribution network
also consists of more than 3,500 indirect points of sale, in addition to the
recently launched online 'e-shop'. In June, the company introduced the
innovative postpaid product 'O2 Vo'nost'', which allows customers to use
postpaid services without having to sign a contract. By the end of June the
company had recorded 455,000 registered customers.

RESULTS BY REGIONAL BUSINESS UNITS
Others Companies
Atento Group
Revenues for the Atento Group reached 565 million euros in the January-June 2007
period, equivalent to a year-on-year growth of 11.1% when compared to the same
period the previous year, as a result of the organic growth experienced in Latin
America.
Revenues generated by external clients to the Telefonica Group advanced 18.6% on
an annual basis versus the first semester of 2006 and represented 49.2% of
Atento's total revenues to June 2007, up 46.1% when compared to the same period
the previous year. The main drivers of this growth were:
• Brazil: increased revenue from Itau, Redecard, Losango and Banco do
Brasil.
• Mexico: increased activity with BBVA-Bancomer, mainly in Finanzia
services and collection services.
• Venezuela: growth in revenue from the CANTV Group, the addition of new
customers from the financial sector, such as Econoinvest, and increased revenues
from telemarketing management with Banco de Venezuela.
• Colombia: increased activity in the multisector market with Citibank,
BSCH and Whirlpool and new client acquisitions (Sony, IFX, Banca Andina and
Bancoldex).
In terms of geographical distribution of revenue, Brazil accounted for 40.3% of
the total and Spain 24.6%. Combined, their contribution was 4.9 p.p. lower than
the same period the previous year. Atento Mexico continued to post strong
growth, contributing 11.8% of the group's total revenues, compared to 9.4% in
the first semester of 2006. Venezuela accounted for 4.2%, up from 3.4% in the
same period last year, and Peru for 3.7%, up from 2.7%.
Operating costs rose 10.6% year-on-year to 492 million euros. This was largely
the result of the increase in personnel costs underpinned by the growth in the
Group's activity and higher facility leasing and maintenance costs.
Operating income before depreciation and amortization (OIBDA) for the Atento
Group amounted to 73 million euros in the first semester of 2007, a 13.8%
year-on-year increase due to increased business activity. In terms of
profitability, OIBDA margin stood at 12.9%, 0.1 p.p. higher than the first
semester of 2006. Atento Brazil contributed 32 million euros or 42.9% of total
OIBDA. Of the remaining operations, the largest contributions were by Mexico
(17.0% or 13 million euros), Chile (9.5% or 7 million euros), Venezuela (7.8% or
6 million euros) and Peru (7.7% or 6 million euros).
Operating income for the six-month period of 2007 amounted to 59 million euros,
representing annual growth of 16.2%.
CapEx in the first semester of 2007 amounted to 10 million euros, compared to 12
million euros in the same period the previous year (-15.4% year-on-year), mainly
deployed in Brazil, Mexico and Spain.
Operating cash flow (OIBDA-Capex) presented a growth of 20.8% when compared to
the first semester of 2006, reaching 63.0 million euros, as a result of
continued growth in operating income coupled with a lower investment effort.
At an operational level, the Atento Group ended June 2007 with 51,191 positions
in place, marking a 20.6% year-on-year increase. The average number of occupied
positions for 2007 stood at 41,083. Productivity in the first half of 2007 was
78.1%, 1.3 p.p. lower than in the first semester of 2006.
