FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
| Acceleration in the growth of the main financial and operating metrics. |
| Increased value accesses: LTE (+31% y-o-y), smartphones (+6%), FTTx/Cable (+23%; record net additions in the quarter of 724k), mobile contract (+6%; 2.2m net additions, 7-year record), Pay TV (+6%). |
| Revenues (12,144m; -6.3% y-o-y) accelerated their organic growth to +2.0% in the quarter. |
| April-June OIBDA (4,237m; +1.9% y-o-y) increased by 4.1% organic (+3.3% in the first quarter) and OIBDA margin expanded (+2.8 p.p. y-o-y; +0.7 p.p. in organic terms). |
| In the second quarter, net income (902m) grew by 9.9% y-o-y and by 11.0% per share (0.16). |
| Reported April-June results are affected by net positive impacts in OIBDA (225m) and negative impacts in net income (-60m), mainly associated with a favourable court ruling in Brazil, and partial goodwill impairment and tax asset reversal in Mexico. |
| Radical transformation of our networks. |
| 47.3m premises passed with FTTx/cable (+15% y-o-y) and LTE coverage of 73% (+6 p.p.). |
| Leaders in network virtualisation and in the creation of a global customer-centric digital ecosystem. |
| Financial flexibility continued increasing. |
| Free cash flow (1,548m in January-June 2018) grew 32.7% y-o-y excluding spectrum. |
| Net debt (43,593m at June; -10.1% y-o-y) decreased for the 5th consecutive quarter (-382m). |
| The Company reiterates its guidance and the dividend announced for 2018. |
| T. España reinforced its positioning with the launch of O2 Brand and football content acquisition, whilst growing in revenues (+0.3% y-o-y in organic terms) and OIBDA (+0.2%), with OIBDA margin at 40.5% in April-June. |
| T. Brasil organic OIBDA growth accelerated y-o-y in the quarter (+7.1%), with OIBDA margin expansion of 2.2 p.p. after posting a new record in fibre connections and increasing contract net additions y-o-y. |
| T. Deutschland improved its commercial activity in the second quarter with the launch of O2 Free Boost and O2 Connect and grew in mobile service revenues (ex-regulation +0.2% y-o-y organic), OIBDA (+0.3%) and operating cash flow (+3.2% in the first half of the year). |
| T. UK maintained in April-June its leading contract churn in the market, and growth accelerated both in revenues (+5.6% y-o-y organic) and OIBDA (+8.2%), while operating cash flow increased by 21.0% y-o-y in January-June. |
| T. Hispam Sur; solid increase in revenues and OIBDA y-o-y organic growth in the quarter (+8.7% and +8.8% respectively) posting net contract additions in all the countries and a gradual progress in FTTx/Cable. |
| T. Hispam Norte; strong commercial activity focused on high value. April-June revenues -0.4% y-o-y organic and OIBDA -2.8%. However, excluding regulation growth trends accelerated (+1.5% and +5.1% respectively). |

Comments from José María Álvarez-Pallete, Executive Chairman:
Telefónica second quarter results showed an improvement in the y-o-y organic growth trends of revenues, OIBDA and OIBDA margin expansion. Moreover, net debt decreased for the fifth consecutive quarter thanks to the strong free cash flow generation (998 million), which grew by 55% excluding spectrum payment in the UK. These results allow us to reiterate our guidance and dividends for 2018.
Our value offer to customers remains key, and we continue investing and expanding our ultra broadband networks. As of June, we have 47.3m premises passed with proprietary FTTx/cable network, +15% y-o-y. LTE coverage grew by 6 p.p. to an average 73% in all our footprint.
Lastly, we remain convinced that the key levers to a sustainable digital future lie with our capacity to radically transform our networks, create a customer-centric digital ecosystem, establish digitalisation as the cornerstone for generating efficiencies and remain at the vanguard of cognitive intelligence.

The financial information related to January-June 2018 contained in this document has been prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as adopted by the European Union, which do not differ for the purposes of the Telefónica Group, from IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).
Telefónicas management model, regional and integrated, means that the legal structure of the companies is not relevant for the release of Group financial information, and therefore, the operating results of each of these business units are presented independently, regardless of their legal structure. For the purpose of presenting information on a business unit basis, revenue and expenses arising from invoicing among companies within Telefónicas perimeter of consolidation for the use of the brand and management contracts have been excluded from the operating results for each business unit. This breakdown of the results does not affect Telefónicas consolidated earnings.
The English language translation of the consolidated financial statements originally issued in Spanish has been prepared solely for the convenience of English speaking readers. Despite all the efforts devoted to this translation, certain omissions or approximations may subsist. Telefónica, its representatives and employees decline all responsibility in this regard. In the event of a discrepancy, the Spanish-language version prevails.

01
The access base of Telefónica Group stood at 357.5m at June 2018 (-1% y-o-y) and increased vs. March 2018 by 546k accesses, supported by intense commercial activity focused on high-value customers.
The quality of the customer base continued improving, after average revenue per access growth accelerated in the quarter to 3.0% y-o-y organic (+2.9% in January-June) and average life per customer increased following a reduction in churn levels (-0.1 p.p. y-o-y).
Growing demand for data, speed and content resulted in high-value accesses growth acceleration: i) LTE customers totalled 106.6m (+31% y-o-y) with quarterly net additions of 3.7m and a penetration of 42% (+10 p.p. y-o-y); ii) mobile contract (119.7m; +6% y-o-y) reported the highest quarterly net additions since the third quarter of 2011 (+2.2m; 1.8 times y-o-y) and represented 44% of total mobile accesses (+3 p.p. y-o-y); iii) smartphones (+6% y-o-y; 163.9m), with quarterly net additions of 2.3, reached a penetration of 65% (+4 p.p. y-o-y); iv) FTTx/Cable (12.2m; +23% y-o-y) posted record quarterly net additions of 724k accesses (1.9 times y-o-y; +530k in January-March of 2018), already representing 57% of total fixed broadband access (+10 p.p. y-o-y) with a coverage of 47.3m passed premises with proprietary network (+15% y-o-y); and v) Pay TV (8.7m; +6% y-o-y) presented quarterly net additions of 131k accesses (2.4 times y-o-y).
It should be noted that the following factors impacted second quarter results;
| T. Brasil: following the final court ruling in favour of Telefónica Brasil regarding the base for calculating the companys contributions to PIS (Programa de Integração Social) and COFINS (Contribuição para Financiamento da Seguridade Social) from September 2003 to July 2014, a non-current asset with the Tax Administration has been recognized (855m). This factor impacted positively January-June 2018 consolidated results of Telefónica Group (+485m in OIBDA and +444m in net financial expenses). In addition, in T. Brasil there were contingencies (106m) and restructuring costs (28m). |
| T. Hispam Norte; a partial write-off of the goodwill allocated to T. México (108M) was registered, following a deterioration due to variations in the discount rate (WACC) and the perpetuity growth rate resulting from changes in macro conditions reflected, among other factors, in a higher risk-free rate. In addition, related to a change in the tax assumptions used, deferred tax assets for temporary differences were derecognized in T. México, impacting Corporate income tax (294M). |
| T. Deutschland: restructuring expenses (18m). |
Reported variations of the consolidated financial statements for January-June 2018 reflected the adoption of IFRS 15 and 9 since 1 January 2018 (results of January-June 2017 are reported following prior accounting standards). Organic variations excluded the impact of the accounting change to IFRS 15 in 2018 (-17m in revenues; +10m in OIBDA of the second quarter; -27m and +21m respectively in the first six months). The accounting change to IFRS 9 had no significant impact on the results.
In the second quarter, the exchange rate evolution reduced y-o-y revenue growth by 8.8 p.p. and that of OIBDA by 10.7 p.p. (-8.7 p.p. and -10.0 p.p. respectively in January-June). However, the negative impact of the depreciation of currencies at OIBDA level decreased significantly in terms of cash flow generation by reducing the payment in euros of CapEx, taxes and interests.
5
Revenues (12,144m in the second quarter; 24,334 in January-June) decreased by 6.3% y-o-y in the quarter (-6.7% in the half year). In organic terms, however, they grew 2.0% y-o-y (+2.0% in January-June) backed by the strong pace of growth from handset sales (+19.6% in the second quarter; +18.1% in the half year) and the positive performance of service revenues (+0.7% both in the second quarter and in the first half).
Mobile data revenues increased in the quarter by 6.4% y-o-y in organic terms (+7.9% in January-June), already representing 62% of mobile service revenues (+2 p.p. y-o-y in organic terms).
Excluding the negative impact of regulation (-1.2 p.p. in the quarter and first six months) revenues would have risen by 3.3% y-o-y in organic terms in the quarter (+3.2% in the first half of the year).
In the second quarter, provisions for restructuring costs amounted to 46m (18m in T. Deutschland and 28m in T. Brasil), impacting personnel expenses (30m) and other net income/expense (17m). In the second quarter of 2017, restructuring costs totalled 25m (primarily in T. Deutschland). In January-June, restructuring costs reached 64m (113m for the same period in 2017).
Also, 106m contingency expenses in Brazil were registered in the second quarter, affecting personnel expenses (10m), other operating expenses (35m) and other net income/expense (61m).
Finally, reported evolution of operating expenses was affected by the positive impact associated with the before mentioned Brazilian court ruling in the second quarter of 2018 (485m).
Operating expenses totalled 8,036m in the quarter and decreased by 11.2% y-o-y (-9.9% in the first half of 2018).
In organic terms, operating expenses increased by 1.9% y-o-y in the second quarter (+1.5% in the first half of the year) due to the growth acceleration in supplies (+4.8% y-o-y in April-June; +3.0% January-June) associated with higher handset consumption, growing content costs and the impact of RLAH on European operations, despite interconnection savings.
The y-o-y growth trend in organic terms of other operating expenses slowed down and remained virtually stable (+0.1% in the second quarter; +0.7% in the first six months), reflecting efficiencies from digitalisation and integration synergies, which compensated higher network expenses. Personnel expenses decreased by 0.2% y-o-y in organic terms in the second quarter (-0.1% in January-June).
The average headcount in January-June 2018 stood at 122,563 employees (-3.0% y-o-y).
In the second quarter of 2018, impairment of goodwill and other assets totalled 109m, mainly associated with the partial deterioration of the goodwill allocated to T. México, previously mentioned.
Gain on sale of fixed assets in the second quarter amounted to 40m, highlighting capital gains on the sale of fibre assets in Mexico with an impact of 14m on OIBDA (12m in April-June 2017) and capital gains on the sale of real estate in Colombia (9m).
Operating income before depreciation and amortisation (OIBDA) totalled 4,237m in the second quarter, increasing 1.9% y-o-y. In January-June, OIBDA amounted to 8,102m (-0.9% y-o-y).
In organic terms, OIBDA accelerated its growth trend to 4.1% y-o-y in the quarter (+3.7% in January-June), reflecting the positive growth in revenues. Excluding the impact of the regulation (-2.2 p.p. in April-June and January-June) OIBDA would have increased by 6.4% y-o-y in organic terms in the quarter and 5.9% in the first half of the year.
Underlying OIBDA reached 4,002m in April-June (-4.7% y-o-y) and excluded the impact associated with the beforementioned Brazilian court ruling (485m), the partial impairment of goodwill allocated to T. México (-108m), contingencies in Brazil (-106m), restructuring costs (-46m) and the impact on OIBDA of the adoption of IFRS 15 (10m). In the first six months, underlying OIBDA amounted to 7.865m (-5.1%).
6
OIBDA margin in the second quarter stood at 34.9% (+2.8% p.p. vs. April-June 2017) and 32.9% in organic terms (+0.7 p.p. y-o-y). In January-June, it reached 33.3% (+1.9 p.p. y-o-y) and 32.3% in organic terms (+0.5 p.p. y-o-y).
Depreciation and amortisation totalled 2.178m in the quarter and decreased by 7.6% y-o-y (-8.4% in January-June) and by 1.9% y-o-y in organic terms (-1.1% in January-June).
Thus, operating income (OI) reached 2,059 in the second quarter and rose by 14.4% y-o-y (+9.7% in January-June). In organic terms, it grew 12.2% y-o-y in the quarter (+10.3% in the first six months).
Net financial expenses in the second quarter (1m) were mainly affected by the impact associated with the aforementioned favourable court ruling in Brazil on financial results (444m). Excluding this impact, its evolution compared to the same period in the previous year (748m) reflected in 2018 savings due to the reduction in both debt and cost of debt, and in 2017 losses and impairments from the stake in Mediaset Premium and Prisa. In January-June 2018 (383m) net financial expenses decreased by 68.0% y-o-y, affected by the aforementioned factors.
Corporate income tax totalled 939m in April-June, mainly affected by the deferred tax assets reversal in T. Mexico and the impact associated with the aforementioned court ruling in Brazil.
Profit attributable to non-controlling interests in the second quarter (218m) was higher than the same period in the previous year (26m), mainly due to the greater profit attributable to minority interests in T. Brasil, affected by the aforementioned impacts.
In this regard, the profit attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent in the second quarter reached 902m and grew 9.9% y-o-y (1,739m in January-June; +8.6% y-o-y).
In underlying terms, it decreased by 2.1% y-o-y in the second quarter (-1.6% in the first six months of 2018), after excluding in April-June 2018 the impacts associated to: i) the aforementioned Brazilian court ruling (452m), ii) deferred tax assets reversal in T. México (-294m), iii) partial goodwill impairment in T. México (-108m), iv) depreciation and amortisation charges from purchase price allocation processes (-108M), v) contingencies in Brazil (-74m), vi) restructuring costs (-36m) and vii) the adoption of IFRS 15 (3m).
Basic earnings per share reached 0.16 in the second quarter, growing 11.0% y-o-y (0.29 in the first half of the year; -0.8% y-o-y). In underlying terms, EPS totalled 0.20 in April-June (-2.1% y-o-y) and 0.37 in January-June (-2.5% y-o-y).
CapEx for the first half of 2018 amounted to 3,932m (+12.1% y-o-y) and included 595m from spectrum (588m in the second quarter in the United Kingdom; 7m in the first quarter in Argentina). In organic terms, CapEx increased by 5.5% because of the different execution calendar and continued to be focused on the radical transformation of networks (deployment of ultrafast networks, network virtualisation, simplification and digitalisation of processes and systems).
Operating cash flow (OIBDA-CapEx) totalled 4,170m in the first half of 2018, decreasing by 10.7% y-o-y, affected by the aforementioned acquisition of spectrum in the United Kingdom. In organic terms Operating cash-flow grew by 2.4%, reflecting good business performance.
Interest payments in the first half of the year (986m) increased by 1.1% y-o-y, and the effective cost of interest payments in the last twelve months stood at 3.48% at June 2018 (3.50% at March 2018).
Tax payments amounted to 356m in January-June 2018, decreasing by 33.7% y-o-y, mainly due to larger tax refunds from previous years and exchange rates evolution.
Working capital consumed 985m in the first half of 2018 due to CapEx seasonality, payment of taxes and site rentals, and the effect associated with the aforementioned Brazilian court decision (as the impact in cash generation is expected between 2019 and 2021), partially offset by the execution of factoring measures on accounts receivable and the extension of payment terms with suppliers or with the factoring company where those had been discounted. The improvement of 359m vs. January-June 2017, was mainly due to lower restructuring payments and seasonal impacts.
7
Operations with minority shareholders amounted to 406m in the first six months of 2018 (255m in the first half of 2017) and their y-o-y variation was affected by the payment in the first quarter of 2018 of an extraordinary dividend to Telxius shareholders (166m; mainly associated with the optimisation of the companys capital structure). In April-June 2018, payments to minority shareholders totalled 238m, in line with the same period in 2017 (234m).
Free cash flow reached 1,548m in the first half of the year (-4.8% vs. the same period in 2017), thus rising by 32.7% y-o-y excluding spectrum payments.
Net financial debt at June (43,593m) decreased 637m vs. December 2017 thanks to free cash flow generation (1,548m; including spectrum payments of 619m, mainly in the United Kingdom), the replacement of capital instruments (226m) and other factors totalling 546m (855m associated with the aforementioned favourable court ruling in Brazil, 59m with the lower value in euros of net debt in foreign currencies, and others amounting to -368m, including the extension of payment terms with suppliers or with the factoring firm). Contrarily, the following factors increased debt; i) remuneration to shareholders (1,186m, including the payment of capital instrument coupons), ii) labour-related commitments (398m) and iii) net financial investments (99m).
In the second quarter of the year, debt decreased 382m thanks to free cash flow generation (998m; including the spectrum payments of 590m) and other factors totalling 589m (855m associated with the Brazilian court ruling, 117m with the lower value in euros of net debt in foreign currencies and others amounting to -383m, including the extension of payment terms with suppliers or with the factoring firm). On the other hand: i) remuneration to shareholders (962m, including the payment of capital instrument coupons), ii) labour-related commitments (197m) and iii) net financial investments (46m), increased debt.
During the first half of 2018, the financing activity of Telefónica increased to approximately 10,814m equivalent (without considering the refinancing of commercial paper and short-term bank loans) and focused on maintaining a solid liquidity position, and refinancing and extending debt maturities (in an environment of low interest rates). Therefore, as of the end of June, the Group has covered debt maturities for the next two years. The average debt life stood at 8.95 years (compared with 8.08 years in December 2017).
After the closing, in July, Telefónica Deutschland closed a senior debt issuance of 600m with a maturity in July 2025 and an annual coupon of 1.750%.
Throughout the first half of year, Telefónica Group obtained funding by means of extending payment terms with suppliers or with the factoring firm where those had been discounted, for a total of 226m equivalent (598m equivalent in January-June 2017).
Meanwhile, Telefónica, S.A. and its holding companies continued their issuance activity under the Promissory Notes and Commercial Paper Programmes (Domestic and European), maintaining an outstanding notional balance of approximately 1,934m at the end of June.
At the end of June, Telefónica maintained undrawn, committed credit lines with different credit institutions for an approximate amount of 12,733m (12,282m maturing in more than twelve months) which, combined with the cash equivalents position and current financial assets excluding Venezuela, placed liquidity at 18,947m.
Definitions:
Organic growth: The average exchange rates in 2017 are assumed, with the exception of Venezuela (results from 2017 and 2018 at synthetic exchange rate upon the close of each period), considering a constant perimeter of consolidation. This excluded the effects of the accounting change to IFRS 15 in 2018, write-downs, capital gains/losses from the sale of companies, tower sales, restructuring costs and material non-recurring impacts. CapEx excludes spectrum investments.
Underlying growth: Figures reported excluding the effects of the accounting change to IFRS 15 in 2018, write-downs, capital gains/losses from the sale of companies, tower sales, restructuring costs and material non-recurring impacts as well as depreciation and amortisation charges from purchase price allocation processes.

Digitalisation and Monetisation
(y-o-y changes in organic terms)
Telefónica progressed in the development of its four platforms to drive customer-centric digitalisation. The first platform, the physical assets, guarantee an excellent connectivity over an increasing convergent, flexible, capable and efficient network:
| Fiber in Spain reached 20.2m premises passed in June and the industrialisation of the deployment process enabled the extension of the fiber network with the same quality but in a more agile and efficient manner in Latin America. In Hispam, FTTx/cable coverage amounted to 8.2m premises passed in June (+51% y-o-y) and 18.8m in Brazil. Overall, FTTx/cable network coverage reached 78.5m premises passed (47.3m of own network, +15% y-o-y), and connected customers increased to 12.2m (+23% y-o-y). In Spain, the costs of the deployment process have been reduced on a 50% basis during the past five years, and among the main efficiencies achieved it is noteworthy the 60% reduction in network incidents when migrating to fiber in the past two years and the 41% reduction in the installation time of the new customer equipment (HGU) vs. the previous equipment. |
| LTE coverage stood at 73% in June (+6 p.p. y-o-y) at June; 92% in Europe and 67% in Latam) supporting LTE traffic, which already accounts for the 62% of the total traffic. At the same time, 4.5G deployment in Germany, Brazil, Mexico and Colombia, use of Massive MIMO, spectrum use optimisation and improvement in the speed of access, shows the progress towards 5G. |
| Telefónica continues expanding its unified fixed access customer hardware portfolio in the operators, as a basis for own and third-party services integration with an excellent quality. Out of more than 30m installed devices, more than 3m are HGU (Home Gateway Unit) hardware, that will include the latest technological advances (Smart WiFi, 802.11 pre-ax, GPON upgrade) at a less cost. |
| The Companys virtualisation programme progresses, driven by UNICA (global solution under an industrialisation process), and at the end of June it is in production in 7 Data Centers of 4 operators (Argentina, Colombia, Germany and Peru), being a reality the dynamic, virtual and centralized management of network functions through SDN/NFV solutions hosted in data centers. |
In the second platform, we have the structural transformation of systems and IT. The 25% of the total customer base has migrated to Full Stack as of June 2018 (+8 p.p. y-o-y) and 62% of the Companys business processes are already digitized and managed in real time (+8 p.p. y-o-y), improving time-to-market and customer experience.
Telefónicas digital transformation is moving forward with the execution of initiatives encompassed in the 5 priorities of the E2E digitalisation programme: i) Increase direct interaction with our customers in the sales (focus on online sales), ii) Promote top-ups and sale of additional bundles through digital channels, iii) Increase the efficiency of the payment and collection process, improving customer experience, iv) Improve the experience in the provision and technical support and v) Improve the experience in customer care.
Thus, the execution of the Digitalisation Plans in all operators is reflected both in the operating KPIs improvement and the capture of savings, with remarkable progress made in Spain and Brazil (KPIs for the second quarter of 2018 below).
In Spain:
| Digital channel sales account for 28% of total sales after increasing by 45% y-o-y (+16% in June 2018 vs. December 2017). |
| 49% of consumer customers (+9 p.p. y-o-y) and 61% of business customers (+6 p.p. y-o-y) use digital channels, and the use of the Mi Movistar App has increased by 54% (1.4m users in June). |
9
| 37% of the technical incidents are self-managed by customers (+19% y-o-y) thanks to the proactive detection of incidents with direct impact on satisfaction (-13% customers dissatisfied with technical support). |
| On TV, the personalization of the advertising and the content recommender in Movistar+ are increasing their effectiveness, having multiplied by 5 the effectiveness of the latter. |
| The use of Advance Analytics optimises the CapEx required for deploying FTTH fibre. |
In Brazil:
| 66% of customer interactions are already in digital channels after increasing by 22% y-o-y. |
| Use of the Meu Vivo App increased by 66% y-o-y to 7m users (+15% in June 2018 vs. December 2017). |
| Prepay top-ups via digital channels increased by 16% y-o-y. |
| E-billing increased by 53% y-o-y so that half of the customers are using only digital invoicing. |
| All the above has contributed to reduce calls to the call center by 25% in annual terms. |
In this context, customers are demanding an increasingly digital experience and Telefónica has a leadership position to capture the monetisation of the higher data consumption, due to the evolution of its operating model and the continuous transformation of the portfolio of products and services, the third platform.
In the consumer segment, an ecosystem of platforms is being created to enrich the customer experience around connectivity: Novum (personalized digital Telco experience integrated with AURA), Smart Wifi (intelligent connectivity management and home wifi devices), Consumer IoT (connection of personal services) and Movistar Play (open platform of entertainment services). This ecosystem drives the demand for data and speed, and increases ARPU and customer loyalty. This is achieved through the adoption of recurrent integrated plans in prepay with tiered pricing structures (with a penetration of 43% in Latam, and more than 60% in Brazil), which translate into an ARPU improvement higher than 10% and churn improvement; and also through the acceleration upselling in contract, with family data plans (United Kingdom, Argentina and Central America) and the offer enriched with digital services (music and video), dedicated data and content, highlighting the Movistar Play OTT video service (present in almost every Latam country). On the other hand, in fixed customers the UBB and contents are the basis of customer development.
In the corporate segment, the value proposition integrates new digital services on connectivity services (both own ones and those of the best partners in the market), creating an open digital ecosystem that provides differential solutions. This, together with the differential advantage of the great capillarity of our global network: 45,000 km and more than 1,000 PoP, 24 Data Centers, 11 security centers and a sales force of 12,000 sales specialists, specialized in the sale of digital services, position Telefónica as a key technological partner for the digital transformation of customers. An example of such value proposition is the global agreement signed in June with Avianca for its digital transformation in 27 countries during the following 5 years.
Broadband connectivity and services beyond connectivity revenues continue to grow and stand at 53% of the Companys revenues as of June 2018 (+2 p.p. y-o-y).
In particular, digital services revenues totalled 1,663m in the quarter and continue to grow significantly by 28.5% y-o-y (3,271m, +28.5% in the first half).
i) Video revenues in April-June amounted to 718m (+0.4% y-o-y) and Pay TV accesses excluding OTT services totalled 8.7m (+6% y-o-y), with notable growth in IPTV base (+17% y-o-y), and churn reduction (-0.1 p.p.). At the end of May, Telefónica announced that it would integrate Netflix in its video and TV platforms (promotion already launched in the UK) reaffirming the commitment to a content offer as complete as possible, with original production and third parties. In the first six months Video revenues amounted to 1,440m (+0.7% y-o-y).
10
ii) Revenues from Advanced Digital Services aimed at corporate clients, reached 353m (+34.3% y-o-y, 658m, +28.5% in the first half) driven by Cloud business (159m; +42.2% y-o-y) and Security (97m, +29.5% y-o-y, +63.4% in corporates), having announced in the quarter the alliance with Devo, specialist in Big Data security, and the collaboration with Rivetz for the development of advanced mobile security protocols. Likewise, the Latch patent concession in the USA has been obtained.
iii) Contents contributed 435m of revenues in the quarter, and maintained a triple-digit growth (+127% y-o-y) again driven by Brazil. In the first six months they amount to 858m (+138.6%).
iv) Other Digital Services revenues grew by 8.5% due to the advertising business (+17.1% in first half).
Finally, taking advantage of the capabilities of the fourth platform, and on the commitment to a new model of relationship with customers, from July 3rd it is available to access Aura in 6 stores in Madrid and Barcelona through Movistar Home, the new device (8 inches screen) that will allow to reach the center of the home (interacting with the fixed telephony, television and connectivity) and will be commercialized in the coming months in Spain.
(y-o-y changes in organic terms)
During the second quarter, Telxius continued expanding its business by accelerating the deployment of new infrastructures and reported solid operational and financial performance.
Revenues amounted to 186m and accelerated their growth to 6.1% y-o-y. Tower business revenues (81m) maintained a solid y-o-y growth of 8.8% and Cable revenues (105m) returned to growth (+4.1% y-o-y; -3.1% in Q1), despite the negative euro/dollar impact on dollar-denominated contracts of subsidiaries with functional currency euro.
In the first half of the year, revenues totalled 366m (+4.0% y-o-y), with the tower business contributing 161m (+9.1% y-o-y) and the Cable business 205m (+0.4% y-o-y).
OIBDA improved its growth trend to +4.5% y-o-y (+0.6% in H1) and amounted to 87m (173m in H1). The OIBDA margin stood at 47.0% (47.3% in H1).
The Tower business continued adding towers to the portfolio (+141 in Q2), mainly in Spain, Brazil and Chile (+165 in H1) and ended June totalling 16,453 towers. This, together with the new co-location contracts signed primarily in Spain, Brazil and Germany, resulted in a tenancy ratio of 1.34x (+0.04x y-o-y).
In the Cable business, the demand for international data traffic managed by Telxius showed a strong y-o-y growth in bandwidth capacity services (+28%) and IP traffic (+27%).
CapEx reached 98m in H1 (56m in H1 17) and reflected the deployment of new cables, MAREA (connecting the USA and northern Spain) and BRUSA (will connect USA with Puerto Rico and Brazil). This investment will significantly decrease in the second half of the year, once the deployment period has finalised.

(y-o-y changes in organic terms)
Telefonica España main financial figures presented y-o-y growth in the second quarter (+0.3% in revenues and +0.2% in OIBDA) reflecting the positive business performance (retail accesses grow by 1.4%, Fusión customers and ARPU, by 2% and 6% respectively, mobile contract by 7%, whilst the quarter showed simultaneous growth at both consumer revenues +1.0% and business revenues +1.2%), which was partially offset by the negative impacts of the migration of Yoigo and Pepephone wholesale/MVNO customers (whose effects will no longer be relevant in 2019), and the regulatory impact related mobile interconnection rate cut.
Growth in accesses (+0.4% y-o-y, +1.4% in retail accesses) took place particularly in the higher value ones, because of the differentiation strategy, supported in both the continuous deployment of our FTTH network (the largest in Europe, over 20 million premises passed), and commercial actions aimed at reinforcing our competitive positioning, as the recently announced O2 portfolio launch and acquisition of Premium TV content. These differential levers allow the Company to continue increasing its customers value, raising operational leverage and improving the sustainability of the business model.
Movistar Fusión customers (4.5m) grew by 2% y-o-y, with 22k net additions, and already account for 89% of the total TV base (+5 p.p. y-o-y), 86% (+2 p.p.) of fixed broadband and 82% (+6 p.p.) of mobile contract. Fusión continues growing in terms of quality, which is reflected in the strong performance of total accesses included in Fusión (21.2m, +10% y-o-y), driven by mobile accesses (+1.2m y-o-y) and TV (+437k) and the higher percentage of customers with high-value bundles (27%, +3 p.p. y-o-y). Thus, the average mobile lines per Fusión customer rose to 1.9 (vs. 1.7 in June 2017), Fusión customers with TV rises to 78% (+8 p.p. y-o-y) and customers with high-speed fibre to 38%.
Fusión ARPU stood at 89.5 and increased by 5.5% y-o-y, on tariff upgrades and an improved customer mix. The lower pace of growth vs. the previous quarter (-2 p.p.) is explained by a tariff upgrade calendar that differs from the previous year. Churn remained stable vs. March at 1.5%, and we should highlight the increased base of medium and high-value customers which show greater loyalty level and hence a higher average customer life (6 years).
Mobile accesses kept showing strong net additions in April-June (+153k) and solid progress in contract (+7% y-o-y, +233k accesses in the quarter), driven by multiline Fusión bundles and positive balance in portability. Churn (1.5%) remained stable both y-o-y and sequentially.
Fixed broadband accesses (6.0m) notably improved their trend and recovered the y-o-y growth, after reporting the best net additions figure since the fourth quarter in 2016 (+17k), thanks to the growth of gross additions (+21% y-o-y) and improved churn (1.6%, -0.1 p.p. vs. the previous quarter; stable y-o-y). Higher quality fibre accesses (3.7m) accelerated their strong growth (+14% y-o-y; +117k net additions), and now represent 61% of the total broadband base (+7 p.p. vs. June 2017).
Fixed telephony accesses (-4% y-o-y) reduced their quarterly net loss (-92k vs. -124k in the first quarter).
Pay TV customers (3.9m) grew y-o-y for the fifth straight quarter (+7%) after posting quarterly net additions of 8k affected by the periods seasonality.
Wholesale accesses rose to 4.0m (-8% y-o-y) with particularly strong growth in NEBA Fibre (1.2m, 2.1x y-o-y), which now represents 29% of the total (+16 p.p. y-o-y; +5 p.p. q-o-q), reflecting the continuous acceleration of net additions (+163k accesses, +44% y-o-y).
18
Premises passed with FTTH stood at 20.2m (540k quarterly increase) and connected customer uptake rose to 24% (18% retail and 6% wholesale).
Revenues in the second quarter grew to 3,167m and continue showing y-o-y growth (+0.3%) on higher service revenues (3,079m; +0.1% y-o-y) and higher handset sales (+7.5% y-o-y). Total revenues (6,265m) and service revenues (6,086m) in January-June grew by 0.7% and 0.4% y-o-y respectively.
Consumer revenues in April-June (1,670m) increased 1.0% y-o-y, a slower pace than what seen in the first quarter (-1.9 p.p.) because of the different upgrade calendar of both convergent and non-convergent tariffs (more concentrated in the second quarter of 2017 and in the first quarter of 2018). Fusión revenues grew 7.7% and non-Fusión revenues decreased by -12.9% both y-o-y.
Business revenues (880m) reversed their trend and again showed growth (+1.2% y-o-y, +1.8 p.p. vs. the first quarter), levered by the solid and sustained progress of IT revenues (+7.4%; +2.2 p.p. q-o-q). Likewise, Communications revenues (-0.7% y-o-y) improved sequentially (+1.4 p.p.) on seasonal factors.
Wholesale and other revenues (529m) decreased by 4.4% y-o-y (vs. -3.5% in the first quarter) due to the larger negative impact this quarter from the loss of wholesale/MVNO customers (Yoigo and Pepephone) and the regulatory impact related to mobile interconnection rate cut (-36% since the beginning of February), not offset by the wholesale fibre revenue growth.
Operating expenses for April-June (1,977m) sequentially improved their y-o-y performance (flat y-o-y, vs. +0.6% in the first quarter) primarily because of greater personnel savings. In the first half of the year, total expenses (3,916m) grew by 0.3 y-o-y.
Supplies (886m in April-June) increased by 3.5% y-o-y, because of higher content expenses and higher IT sales. Sequentially, performance improved because of lower handset consumption. Additionally, net content costs (after wholesale revenues) increase by 11% y-o-y (vs. +8% in January-March).
Personnel expenses (491m in the quarter) improved y-o-y performance (-5.6% vs. -4.0% in the first quarter) on higher savings from the voluntary employment suspension plan (29m). Headcount at the end of June stands at 26,758 employees (-5% y-o-y).
Other operating expenses (600m) come down y-o-y (-0.3%) thanks to the containment of commercial expenses and to overall efficiencies, which offset the higher commercial activity in the quarter.
OIBDA in April-June therefore rose to 1,283m growing 0.2% y-o-y, and the OIBDA margin stood at 40.5% (flat vs. second quarter 2017). In January-June OIBDA stood at 2,507m (+0.4% y-o-y) with the OIBDA margin at 40.0% (-0.1 p.p. y-o-y).
CapEx in the first half of the year stood at 778m (+10.4% y-o-y), affected by execution calendars. Operating cash flow totalled 1,729m (-3.5% y-o-y).

(y-o-y changes in organic terms)
Telefónica Deutschland delivered a solid set of results, fully on-track with FY 2018 guidance, on successful synergy capture and strong operational momentum in a dynamic but still rational market. Since 5 June 2018, the refresh of the O2 Free portfolio (including the boost option to double data volumes for +5 per month) and the launch of O2 Free Connect (allowing to share high-speed data volume for up to 10 devices) further support data growth and ARPU-uplift.
Contract mobile customers (21.8m; +4.1% y-o-y) benefitted from +333k net additions in the quarter (+69% y-o-y) leveraging the O2 Free tariffs and a continued strong partner trading (58% of gross additions; +61% in Q1) as a result of 4G offers. Prepay customers (21.2m; -13% y-o-y) remained impacted by lower demand after the regulatory changes introduced in the summer of 2017, though net disconnections were reduced in the quarter to -148k (-535k in Q1 2018). Smartphone penetration continued to grow (+6 p.p. y-o-y to 63%) and LTE accesses increased (+15% y-o-y) to 16.6m, with penetration reaching 40% (+7 p.p. y-o-y). The average data usage for O2 contract LTE customers increased by 69% y-o-y to 3.4 GB per month in the quarter (+22% q-o-q). Retail broadband accesses were lower (-2% y-o-y to 2.0m), while demand for VDSL (1.3m; +39% y-o-y) remained strong with 86k net additions. Wholesale DSL registered -55k net disconnections due to the planned dismantling of the legacy infrastructure, with only 8k accesses remaining as per the end of the quarter.
Revenues reached 1,758m in Q2 18, down by -1.2% y-o-y (3,525m in H1 18; -0.8% y-o-y) and -0.3% excluding regulatory effects (flat y-o-y in H1). Mobile service revenues totalled 1,311m in the quarter and declined (-0.9% y-o-y in Q2 18 and -0.7% in H1 18) on headwinds from the European roaming legislation, the continued rotation of the legacy base and the increasing share of partner MSR. Ex-regulation, MSR growth evolution remained positive at +0.2% y-o-y (+0.3% y-o-y in H1 18). Handset revenues totalled 249m in Q2 18, up 7.5 % y-o-y (+9.1% y-o-y in H1 18) on the back of continued strong demand for smartphones. Fixed revenues amounted to 192m in the quarter and continued to decline (-13.0% y-o-y in Q2 18; -12.7% y-o-y in H1 18) due to the ongoing migration of the wholesale customer base.
Operating expenses amounted to 1,281m in Q2 18 and decreased by 1.6% y-o-y, reversing trends vs. Q1 18 ( -0.5% y-o-y in H1 18). Supplies reached 538m in Q2 18 and decreased by 1.7% y-o-y (-0.6% in H1 18) mainly as a result of lower interconnection costs, despite higher handset consumption and higher costs for outbound roaming. Personnel expenses (151m) were lower 0.9% y-o-y (+0.7% in H1 18) as the inflation-related salary adjustments in 2018 have been more than compensated with the savings related to the successful completion of the employee restructuring programme. Other operating expenses reached 591m in Q2 18 and were 1.7% lower y-o-y (-0.8% y-o-y in H1 18), benefitting from integration synergies. Restructuring expenses amounted to 18m in Q2 18 (19m in Q2 17).
OIBDA (479m in Q2 18; 882m in H1) continued to grow at +0.3% y-o-y (+0.5% in H1 18), albeit at a slower pace vs. Q1 18 due to lower incremental synergies (~30m in Q2 18 and ~65m in H1 18; mainly rollover effects from FTE restructuring and network consolidation) and a higher regulatory drag (-17m in Q2 18; -31m in H1 18). OIBDA margin stood at 27.2% in the quarter and expanded by 0.4 p.p. y-o-y (25.0% in H1 18; +0.3 p.p. y-o-y), driven by the focus on profitable growth and efficient cost management.
CapEx in the first half of 2018 totalled 424m and decreased by 2.3% y-o-y, still benefiting from efficient CapEx management and incremental synergies of ~25m, while network integration, the subsequent LTE rollout and the strategy to bring fibre to the backhaul progressed according to plan.
As such, operating cash flow (OIBDA-CapEx) was up 3.2% y-o-y to 458m in H1 18.

(y-o-y changes in organic terms)
Telefónica UK continued to deliver a good set of results, growing financials in the second quarter of 2018, despite regulatory impacts and accounting changes. The Company remains UKs favourite mobile network carrier with total base more than 32m customers and continues to lead market loyalty with the lowest churn. Customers continued to spend more with the Company, reflecting continued focus on great customer propositions and experiences.
Total mobile accesses grew by 0.3% y-o-y and remained market-leading at 32.1m including partners on Telefónica UKs network (7.3m). Own brand contract net additions were 84k (43k ex-M2M; 16k in Q1), increased by +1.2% y-o-y to 15.9m (64% penetration, +1.7 p.p. y-o-y reflecting market trends), supported by new tariffs and new channels strategy. Churn remained low at 1.0% (flat y-o-y and q-o-q). Additionally, LTE accesses were -0.7% y-o-y down to 12.5m with a penetration of 59% (+0.8 p.p. y-o-y). In prepay, net quarterly disconnections decreased to -101k (-245K in Q1), in-line with market dynamics.
Revenues continued to increase this quarter for the 7th consecutive quarter to 1,638m, up 5.6% y-o-y (3,223m; +4.2% in H1), mainly as a result of an increase in customer spend driven by an update of tariffs for RPI in April, and higher handset, wholesale and non-mobile revenues, which more than offset regulatory drag of 2.1 p.p.
Mobile service revenues continued to grow in the quarter and totalled 1,221m up +3.5% y-o-y; +2.3 p.p. q-o-q (2,384m; +2.4% in H1). Excluding regulatory impacts from roaming and MTRs grew +6.2% y-o-y, vs. +2.8% in Q1 (+4.5% in H1), mainly driven by higher average subscriptions and continuing MVNO growth.
Handset & other revenues amounted to 417m, up 13.4% y-o-y (840m; +11.2% in H1), again driven by flagship device sales together with continuing growth from the smart metering programme (SMIP) and B2B ICT solutions.
Operating expenses totalled 1,221m in the quarter to +5.2% y-o-y (+3.3% in H1). Supplies (546m) grew +5.7% y-o-y (+3.6% in H1) driven by higher commercial efforts and a discretionary spend phasing in handsets. Personnel expenses amounted to 112m, +2.3% y-o-y (+0.9% in H1) and other expenses increased +5.2% y-o-y to 563m (+3.5% y-o-y in H1), mainly driven by network improvement and stronger trading activity in the market.
OIBDA totalled 450m in the quarter increasing by +8.2% y-o-y; (879m; +7.2% in H1), reflecting the robust top-line performance and a reduction in Annual Licence Fee payments, and more than offsetting the impact of regulation (-37m in the quarter). Thus, OIBDA margin was 27.5% improving +0.7 p.p. y-o-y (+27.3%; +0.8 p.p. in H1), also supported by efficient cost controls.
CapEx amounted to 987m in the first six months, after investing 588m in the acquisition of 40MHz of 4G spectrum (2.3GHz), and 40MHz (3.4GHz). CapEx reduced -6.1% y-o-y in organic terms, on efficient expenditure in network capacity and customer experience. Operating cash flow (OIBDA-CapEx) increased by 21.0% y-o-y in organic terms in the first half of the year.

(y-o-y changes in organic terms)
In the second quarter of 2018 Telefónica Brasil accelerated organic growth in OIBDA and showed margin improvement to 36.5% in organic terms. Telefónica Brasils differential assets and the continued focus to grow in value (new record in fibre connections and y-o-y growth in contract net additions) more than offset the decrease in fixed voice revenues and the worse macroeconomic environment in the quarter, that mainly affected prepay revenues.
Mobile accesses increased by 1% despite the loss of prepay accesses (migration to contract and decrease of low-value accesses), which was offset by the strong growth in contract accesses (+11% y-o-y). Vivo maintained its leadership position with a contract market share of 41.3% as of May 2018 after leading the capture of new contract accesses with a 36.9% share in the last two months. Net contract additions of 936k in the quarter, +9% y-o-y (+29% in the first half) thanks to the greater commercial activity, with stable churn rates y-o-y (both in the quarter and in the first half) despite the higher commercial aggressiveness in the market. The migration to higher value plans drove data ARPU, which grew 11.8% in the first half of the year (total ARPU +0.6%).
In fixed retail broadband accesses (7.5m at June; stable y-o-y) the sharp rise in FTTH connections was particularly noteworthy, achieving a historical record (+162k in the quarter, +284k in the first half) as coverage was expanded to 7.6m homes passed (18.8m with FTTx). Additionally, Pay TV accesses increased by 51% y-o-y after reporting net additions of 56k in the quarter (+106k accesses in the first half). The growth in value translated into a greater sustainability of the business with solid y-o-y growth in ARPU (+7.9% in broadband and +4.2% in pay TV in the first half of the year).
Quarterly revenues (2,522m; 5,227m in the first half) increased by 0.5% y-o-y (+2.0% excluding regulation; +0.8% in the first half, +2.5% excluding regulation). Mobile service revenues (1,476m in April-June) increased by 1.9% in the quarter (+2.7% in the first half) backed by solid contract performance (+7.1% in the quarter, +8.1% in the first half), offsetting the worse trend in prepay (-18.1% in the quarter, -15.3% in the first half; due to the overall macroeconomic slowdown and a more competitive environment). Handset revenues increased by 60.5% in the quarter (+40.9% y-o-y in the first half) on a greater focus on profitable handset sales. Fixed revenues (-5.2% y-o-y in the quarter, -4.6% in the first half) were impacted by a higher drop in voice revenues, the regulatory impact, and the Brazilian truckers strike that temporarily affected broadband installation in the quarter. These impacts are partially offset by the excellent performance of fibre revenues (+20.3% in the quarter; +21.0% in the first half) and IPTV (+59.1% in the quarter; +62.6% in the first half).
Operating expenses (1,233m in the quarter) decreased for the tenth straight quarter (-0.7% y-o-y, -1.3% in the first half) thanks to the digitalisation and cost containment measures. Supplies (530m) increased by 14.2% y-o-y (+5.5% in the first half) due to higher handset costs, partially offset by the reduction in termination rates. Personnel expenses (295m) increased below inflation (+2.6% y-o-y, +2.9% in the first half) and included 28m for headcount restructuring costs in the quarter. Other operating expenses (408m) decreased by 8.9% y-o-y in the quarter (-5.9% in the first half) thanks to the boost in digitalisation that is mainly behind the decrease in commercial expenses (commissions and call center expenses, among others).
26
OIBDA reported in the quarter was positively affected by 485m associated with the favourable court ruling related to the exclusion of ICMS from the PIS/COFIN tax base, as well as to contingencies amounting to -106m. OIBDA stood at 1,275m (2,257m in the first half) and increased in organic terms (excluding the aforementioned impacts, the headcount restructuring, the accounting change to IFRS 15 and the exchange rates impact) by 7.1% y-o-y in the quarter (+5.8% y-o-y in the first half) with an OIBDA margin expanding y-o-y by 2.2 p.p. to 36.5% in organic terms (36.3% in the first half, +1.7 p.p. y-o-y).
CapEx in the first half amounted to 892m (+17.2% y-o-y, as a result of phasing of investments throughout the year), allocated mainly to the fibre and 4G networks expansion. Thus, operating cash flow reached 1,365m in the first half of the year, decreasing by 2.6% in organic terms.

(y-o-y changes in organic terms)
During the second quarter, Hispam Sur maintained solid growth levels (+8.7% in revenues and +8.8% in OIBDA) with a noteworthy trend improvement in Chile (return to growth in revenues and OIBDA) and in Peru due to a better commercial activity in contract, pay TV, fibre and the savings achieved from efficiency measures and digitalisation.
Mobile accesses (43.0M) decreased by 4% y-o-y as a result of the loss of prepay accesses in Argentina (affected by the implementation of a mandatory real-name registration policy). Nonetheless, contract accesses increased by 3% y-o-y (quarterly net additions of +353k, positive in all countries of the region) and LTE accesses by 44%.
In the fixed business, pay TV accesses accelerated its y-o-y growth to 9% (vs. 7% in the first quarter) as a result of the excellent performance of this service in Peru, where another record was set for gross additions, driven by the continuous improvement in the content offer. Accesses connected with FTTx and cable networks increased 61% to 2.1m (306k new FTTH and cable accesses connected in the quarter) after accelerating their deployment throughout the quarter (7.4m premises passed, 631k passed in the quarter).
Revenues in the second quarter rose to 1,798m and increased by 8.7% y-o-y (3,631m in the first half, +8.2%) thanks to the gradual update in tariffs in Argentina, better performance in Chile as well as in Peru, growth in mobile data (+16.5%) and broadband and new services (+7.0% y-o-y). Operating expenses amounted to 1,333 (2,673m in the first half) and grew by 9.0% mainly as a result of the increase in Argentina (due to the impact of the inflation and peso depreciation) and greater commercial activity in the region, partially offset by the efficiency measures implemented.
OIBDA reached 507m in the quarter (+8.8% y-o-y; 1,024m in the first half, +9.8%). OIBDA margin stood stable y-o-y at 28.2% (28.2% in the first half, +0.4 p.p. y-o-y).
CapEx amounted to 553m at June (+7.9% y-o-y), allocated primarily to the fibre network deployment and the improvement and expansion of mobile networks. As a result, operating cash flow (OIBDA-CapEx) amounted to 471m in January-June (+12.0% y-o-y).
In the second quarter, Telefónica Argentina posted solid y-o-y growth in revenues and OIBDA (+22.3% and +27.7% respectively), levered on the progressive increase in ARPU (growth in value accesses and the gradual update in tariffs). In April, the Company completed the brand unification process under the Movistar trademark for B2C and SME customers.
Mobile accesses (18.7m) decreased by 6% y-o-y on the prepay accesses loss, though contract accesses growth accelerated to 5% with net additions of 99k in the quarter (+84k in the second quarter of 2017; +136k accesses in the first half) and LTE accesses grew by 43% y-o-y with a penetration of 37% (+12.8 p.p. y-o-y) and 4G coverage of 79%.
Retail broadband accesses decreased in the quarter (1.6m; -10% y-o-y) affected by the loss of copper accesses due to the focus on fiber deployment. Thus, FTTx accesses were multiplied by 2.6 times y-o-y to 353k in June (59k new accesses connected in the quarter of which 55k connected with FTTH) after deployment accelerated to reach 1.6m premises passed.
Revenues amounted to 703m in the quarter (+22.3% y-o-y; 1,458m in January-June, +23.6%), showing solid growth in both businesses. Mobile service revenues (395m in the quarter) increased by 22.4% y-o-y, driven by the growth in value accesses and ARPU (+30.9% y-o-y in the first half of 2018). Data revenues increased by 38.2% y-o-y, with notable data traffic expansion of 60%. Handset revenues grew by 48.8% y-o-y on higher gross additions including profitable device sales and increasing high-end devices mix. Fixed business revenues (238m) increased by 15.8% y-o-y leveraged on the 19.2% y-o-y growth of broadband ARPU in the first six months (greater weight of fibre accesses and tariffs updates).
29
Operating expenses (492m in the quarter) increased by 20.0% (+17.6% in the first half), below inflation as a consequence of efficiency measures and digitalisation, which offset the impact of price hikes and depreciation of the peso. The quarterly OIBDA totalled 218m (+27.7% y-o-y) and 463m in the first half (+39.5% y-o-y). OIBDA margin stood at 31.0% (+1.3 p.p. y-o-y).
CapEx amounted to 254m in June (including 6m investment in the 2.6 GHz spectrum) and grew by 26.8% y-o-y, mainly allocated to expanding the fibre network (in line with the aforementioned deployment acceleration) and improving service quality. Operating cash flow (OIBDA-CapEx) stood at 208m in the first six months (+57.5% y-o-y).
In the second quarter of 2018, Telefónica Chile posted simultaneous growth in revenues (+0.3%) and OIBDA (+1.3%) for the first time in the last 10 quarters thanks to the progressive value customer capture (contract and fiber) and the efficiency measures achieved despite the intense competitive environment.
Mobile accesses amounted to 8.8m (-2% y-o-y). Contract notably improved (+8% y-o-y; 39% penetration, +4 p.p. y-o-y) with 94k net additions in the quarter (-15k accesses in the second quarter of 2017; 185k in the first half of the year) as gross additions increased (+31% y-o-y; +25% in the first half) due to the good reception of the new plans launched in the third quarter of 2017 and the integration of Movistar Play as a differential attribute in the offer. Smartphones grew by 18% y-o-y (42% penetration, +7 p.p. y-o-y) and LTE accesses increased by 50% (to 2.8m) with a penetration of 34% (+12 p.p. y-o-y) after increasing population coverage to 86%.
Retail broadband accesses amounted to 1.1m (-1% y-o-y) after reporting 9k net additions in the quarter driven by the acceleration in FTTx deployment (+1.6m premises passed; 421k connected). It is worth highlighting the increase in FTTH connections (+59% y-o-y to 234k connected; +47k in the quarter) which represented 21% of total broadband accesses. Additionally, Pay TV accesses (679k) increased by 1% y-o-y with 6k net additions in the quarter (-5k in the first half).
Quarterly revenues stood at 525m (1,051m in the first half) and reversed their y-o-y trend (+0.3% y-o-y; -0.3% in the previous). Mobile service revenues (231m; -5.4% y-o-y; -6.8% in the first half) improved their trend after ARPU slowed down its y-o-y decline (-6.6% in the quarter; -11.0% January-March). Handset revenues (74m; +61.0% y-o-y) increased y-o-y growth by 2.8 p.p. compared to the first quarter boosted by the greater commercial activity. Fixed business revenues (220m) decreased by 3.4% y-o-y (-2.2% in the first half) due to lower voice and pay TV revenues, partially offset by growth in fixed broadband revenues (+0.3% y-o-y; +1.8% in the first half).
Operating expenses (378m in April-June) increased by 0.7% y-o-y (+1.4% in the first half) explained by higher commercial expenses, mainly handset consumption (although to a lower extent than the increase in handset sales) partially balanced by efficiency measures.
The quarterly OIBDA stood at 158m and increased by 1.3% y-o-y (312m in the first half; -1.5% y-o-y). OIBDA margin increased by 0.3 p.p. y-o-y to 30.1% (29.7% in January-June, -0.5 p.p. y-o-y).
CapEx in the first half amounted to 168M (-3.1% y-o-y), mainly allocated to LTE coverage expansion and high-speed network deployment in the fixed business. Operating cash flow (OIBDA-CapEx) amounted to 144m and increased by 0.4% compared to the first six months of 2017.
In the second quarter of 2018, Telefónica Perú continued to improve the trend in revenues and OIBDA after posting again solid commercial results, with a new record in Pay TV quarterly net additions and an acceleration in contract accesses growth. All of this, despite the intense competition in the market.
Mobile accesses (13.9m) decreased by 4% y-o-y as a consequence of the loss registered in the last two quarters of the previous year. However, in this quarter there is an improvement in the contract segment, with net additions of 154k accesses (-340k in the second quarter of 2017; +182k in the first half) thanks to higher market rationality (entry barrier
30
rise and tariffs updates) and an improved offer. Additionally, net portability is positive in the quarter thanks to both the positive contract performance and the stabilization in prepaid (+44k accesses vs. +21k accesses in the previous quarter). 4G accesses grew by 43% (26% penetration; 73% coverage).
Retail broadband accesses (1.9m; +9% y-o-y) posted quarterly net additions of 62k (new record), with an acceleration in FTTx and cable accesses growth (+60% y-o-y to 1.3m connected; 203k connected in the quarter with FTTH). FTTx and cable premises passed reached 4.2m (196k passed in April-June; 479k in January-June). Pay TV accesses (1.5m) increased by 13% y-o-y after reaching net additions of 66k in the quarter with record gross adds, leveraged on differentiation (technical solution and exclusive content with wide acceptance of the sports channel) and success of commercial campaigns aimed at the migration from 2 play to 3 play.
Moreover, Movistar Play momentum continued as a differential characteristic in the fixed and mobile offers.
Revenues totalled 518m in the quarter (-4.5% y-o-y), improving the y-o-y trend compared to previous quarters (1,019m in January-June with a 6.8% decrease) thanks to higher revenues from contract and fixed services, and despite the negative impact from regulation (+0.5% y-o-y in the quarter excluding regulation). Mobile service revenues (189m) decreased by 13.7% y-o-y (-13.4% in the first half) impacted by intense competition and regulation. Handset revenues increased by 9.9% y-o-y in April-June (-6.4% in January-June) thanks to the commercial momentum mainly in contract. Quarterly fixed business revenues (253) increased by 3.0% y-o-y due to higher voice and access revenues (+9.2% y-o-y) and the good performance of pay TV (+2.9% y-o-y with ARPU increase of 1.7% y-o-y), which offset the change in the commercialisation of fixed equipment.
Operating expenses (426m in the quarter) increased by 0.7% (+0.3% in the first half) due to the higher commercial activity, partially offset by the impact of the new termination rates and efficiency measures. Thus, OIBDA amounted to 111m in the quarter (decreasing by 19.1% y-o-y, although improving the y-o-y trend by 15.8 p.p. vs. the first quarter), and to 210m in the first half (-27.4% y-o-y). OIBDA margin stood at 21.5% (-3.7 p.p. y-o-y, -5.5 p.p. in January-June).
CapEx in the first half (122m) decreased by 13.7% y-o-y and was focused on the service quality improvement, 4G coverage increase and high-speed networks deployment, as well as on the Companys digitalisation processes. As a consequence, operating cash flow (OIBDA-CapEx) amounted to 88m in June (-42.7% y-o-y).

(y-o-y changes in organic terms)
Hispam Nortes quarterly results remained affected by regulatory impacts and a greater competitive intensity in prepay in Mexico. Nevertheless, it is worth highlighting the positive commercial results both in contract and LTE within the mobile business, as well as in broadband and pay TV in the fixed business.
Mobile accesses rose to 67.4m as of June (+1% y-o-y) after recording 200k net additions in contract and 299k in prepay throughout the quarter (+397k and +170k in the first half of 2018). LTE accesses increased 70% y-o-y and reached a penetration of 25% (+10 p.p.) and a coverage of 48%.
In the fixed business, retail broadband accesses (1.2m; +28% y-o-y) presented 21k net additions (+44k accesses in the first half), with a strong growth of FTTx and cable accesses (+421% y-o-y; +117k new accesses connected in the quarter; FTTH accesses already accounting for more than 15% of the total FTTx base in June), with 91k new premises passed in the quarter to a total coverage of 844k premises passed. Pay TV accesses increased by 5% with 29k net additions (+49k in the first half).
Revenues in the second quarter (1,027m; 1,998m in the first half) remained virtually stable (-0.4%; -1.3% in the first half), improving the y-o-y trend vs. the first quarter by 1.7 p.p. boosted by a better performance in Colombia, Central America and Ecuador. Excluding the regulatory impact, operating revenues would have increased by 1.5% y-o-y (+0.8% in the first half).
Operating expenses (793m; 1,532m in the first half) rose 3.2% in April-June (+1.7% in January-June) led by commercial expenses and partially compensated by efficiency measures.
OIBDA amounted to 176 in April-June (434m in January-June), a 2.8% decrease vs. the same period of the previous year (-5.1% in the first half), affected by the regulatory impact in Mexico, although the return to growth in Colombia is particularly noteworthy (affected by 9m associated with capital gains from the sale of real estate assets). Regulation dragged y-o-y growth by -7.9 p.p. in the quarter and by -8.1 p.p. in the first half. Additionally, in the second quarter a partial write-off of the goodwill allocated to T. Mexico of 108M has been recorded (without any impact at the country level). The OIBDA margin was 17.1% in the quarter (-0.7 p.p. y-o-y; 21.7% in the first half, -1.1 p.p. y-o-y).
CapEx (165m in January-June; -36.0% y-o-y) was mainly allocated to improving and expanding the fixed and mobile networks. Operating cash flow (OIBDA-CapEx) rose to 269m in the first half (+20.4% y-o-y).
Telefónica Colombia accelerated its revenues and OIBDA y-o-y growth in the quarter, reflecting both a good commercial performance (positive net additions and y-o-y churn improvement in the main services), and savings from efficiency measures. Operating cash flow advanced 38.7% y-o-y in the first half.
Mobile accesses rose to 15.1m (+9% y-o-y) with +354k net additions in the quarter (+166k accesses in the second quarter of 2017; +480k accesses in the first half). Contract accesses grew by 3% y-o-y after reaching 60k net additions, the highest level in 8 quarters, due to a greater commercial activity following the success of the latest launched offer (more for more strategy rising the entry level, offering higher data allowance and including Movistar Play to all plans). In prepay, accesses increased 12% y-o-y (net additions of +294k; +122k in the second quarter of 2017; +441k in the first half), worth highlighting the improvement of the commercial proposition (extension of the validity for data and minutes allowance). Smartphones reached a 44% penetration (+2 p.p. y-o-y) and LTE accesses rose by 57% y-o-y (34% penetration, +10 p.p. y-o-y; 59% coverage) boosting mobile data traffic (+35% y-o-y in April-June).
37
Retail broadband accesses (1.2m; +27% y-o-y, positively impacted by the inclusion of accesses from the Telebucaramanga and Metrotel subsidiaries consolidated in the fourth quarter of 2017) presented 12k net additions in the quarter (-8k accesses in the second quarter of 2017; +36k in the first half). FTTx sustained a positive performance and practically doubled its connections vs. to previous quarter (+421% y-o-y; 117k connected in the quarter; reaching a total of 47k FTTH accesses at June) with 844k premises passed (34% connected). Furthermore, Pay TV accesses increased 7% y-o-y, with +17k net additions in the quarter (+4k in the second quarter 2017; +34k in the first half), worth highlighting the launch of the Movistar Series channel included in the Movistar Play offer in March.
Revenues (370m in Abril-June) rose 2.3% y-o-y (721m, +0.7% in January-June). Mobile service revenues (188m) grew 2.8% y-o-y (+1.8% in the first half) leveraged on the accesses growth and the strong boost in data (+7.4%). Handset revenues reverted their trend and grew 0.5% y-o-y (-2.5% in the first half) led by the increase in commercial activity with associated handset sales. Fixed business revenues (146m) showed an acceleration in growth to +2.0% (stable in the first half), driven by broadband and new services (+20.7% y-o-y in the quarter; +17.7% in the first half).
Operating expenses amounted to 261m (+5.5% y-o-y; 506m, +3.4% in the first half) due to higher commercial expenses and the change in the sale of fixed equipment which implies an accounting recognition as Opex (previously as Capex), partially offset by increased efficiencies and savings from digitalisation. OIBDA rose to 128m and grew 5.0%y-o-y in the quarter (252m in the first half, stable y-o-y) despite the negative regulatory impact (+6.0% y-o-y in the quarter excluding regulation; +1.8% in the first half), and was affected by the capital gains from the sale of real estate assets (9m of impact in the quarter). OIBDA margin was 34.6% (+0.9 p.p. y-o-y; +34.9% in the first half, -0.1 p.p.).
CapEx amounted to 66m in the first half (-42.2% y-o-y, impacted by the change in the recognition of fixed equipment previously mentioned) and was mainly allocated to fibre deployment and LTE expansion. Operating cash flow (OIBDA- CapEx) increased 38.7% y-o-y in the first half.
The performance of Telefónica México remained affected by the regulatory changes and increased commercial aggressiveness in the prepaid market. On the other hand, the strategic focus on high-value customers growth was translated into a solid growth of contract accesses (+14% y-o-y).
Mobile accesses reached 25.5m and rose 1% y-o-y after reporting 231k net additions (-380k in the second quarter of 2017; +429k in the first half). Contract net additions increased to +83k accesses in April-June (+62k in the same period of 2017; +187k accesses in the first half) led by an improved offer and better distribution channel. Mobile data traffic increased 39% y-o-y in the quarter, driven by growth in LTE (+39%; 51% coverage). Prepay remained stable y-o-y, but accesses with frequent top-ups decreased 14% y-o-y due to the above mentioned higher aggressiveness in the market.
In fixed accesses, it is worth highlighting the continuous growth of internet en el hogar (internet at home; broad band offered through the mobile network), which has already reached 27k users.
Revenues (297m) fell 6.1% y-o-y (574m in the first half, -5.8% y-o-y), negatively affected by the decrease in termination rates and lower revenues from prepay, that was partially compensated by handset sales (+26.2% y-o-y in the quarter as a result of greater commercial activity in high-value segments). Excluding the regulatory impact, revenues would have decreased 0.6% y-o-y in April-June (stable in January-June).
Operating expenses (266m; 507m in the first half) increased 2.7% y-o-y in April-June (+1.5% in January-June) as a result of higher handsets consumption (although to a lesser extent than the growth in revenues seen from handset sales), partially offset by the efficiencies achieved in network and systems. OIBDA rose to 55m (-24.6% y-o-y; 97m in the first half, -26.2% y-o-y) and includes capital gains from fibre optic sales in the quarter of 14m (+12m for the same concept in the second quarter of 2017), as part of the continuous asset optimisation strategy. Excluding the negative regulatory impact, OIBDA would have increased 3.6% y-o-y (+5.3% in January-June). The OIBDA margin was 18.6% (-4.5 p.p. y-o-y; 16.8% in the first half, -4.7 p.p. y-o-y).
CapEx amounted to 45m in January-June (-33.8% y-o-y). Operating cash flow (OIBDA-CapEx) decreased by 18.1% y-o-y in the first half.

Alternative performance measures
Information included in compliance with the ESMA Guidelines, 5 October 2015, on Alternative Performance Measures (APM), applicable to published regulated information from 3 July 2016.
The management of the Group uses a series of APM in its decision-making, in addition to those expressly defined in the IFRS, because they provide additional information useful to assess the Groups performance, solvency and liquidity. These measures should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for the measures presented according to the IFRS.
The APM included in this report are: Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization, Net financial debt and Net financial debt plus commitments, leverage ratio, Free cash flow, Organic result and Underlying result.
Operating income before amortisation (OIBDA)
Operating income before depreciation and amortization (OIBDA) is calculated by excluding solely depreciation and amortization from operating income. OIBDA is used to track the performance of the business and to establish operating and strategic targets of the Telefónica Group companies. OIBDA is a commonly reported measure and is widely used among analysts, investors and other interested parties in the telecommunications industry, although not a measure explicitly defined in IFRS, and therefore, may not be comparable to similar indicators used by other companies. OIBDA should not be considered as a substitute for operating income.
The detailed reconciliation of Telefónica Groups OIBDA and Operating Income and each of its segments, can be found in this document (Telefónica Group and Segment P&Ls), as well as on the selected financial information contained in https://www.telefonica.com/documents/162467/142176244/rdos18t2-data.zip.
The OIBDA is also defined on the financial information published by the Group as of 30 June, 2018 (see particularly Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements for the 6-month ended June 30, 2018).
Debt indicators
a) | Net financial debt and Net financial debt plus commitments |
As calculated by us, net financial debt includes: (i) current and non-current financial liabilities in our consolidated statement of financial position (which includes the negative mark-to-market value of derivatives) and (ii) other payables included in Payables and other non-current liabilities and Payables and other current liabilities (mainly corresponding to payables for deferred payment of radio spectrum that have a financial component). From these liabilities, the following are subtracted: i) cash and cash equivalents, ii) current financial assets (which include short-term derivatives), iii) the positive mark-to-market value of derivatives with a maturity beyond one year, and iv) other interest-bearing assets (components of Receivables and other current assets and Financial assets and other non-current assets in our consolidated statement of financial position). The accounts included in the net financial debt calculation recorded in Payables and other non-current liabilities or Financial assets and other non-current assets have a maturity beyond one year and a financial component. In Receivables and other current assets we include the customer financing of terminal sales classified as short term, and Financial assets and other non-current assets includes derivatives, instalments for the long term sales of terminals to customers and other long term financial assets.
We calculate net financial debt plus commitments by adding gross commitments related to employee benefits to net financial debt, and deducting the value of long-term assets associated with those commitments and the tax benefits arising from the future payments of those commitments.
We believe that net financial debt and net financial debt plus commitments are meaningful for investors and analysts because they provide an analysis of our solvency using the same measures used by our management.
45
We use net financial debt and net financial debt plus commitments to calculate internally certain solvency and leverage ratios used by management. Nevertheless, neither net financial debt nor net financial debt plus commitments as calculated by us should be considered as a substitute for gross financial debt as presented in the consolidated statement of financial position.
The reconciliation of Telefónica Groups gross financial debt according to the consolidated statement of financial position, net financial debt and net financial debt plus commitments at the end of June 2018 can be found on page 13 of this document and in the financial information contained in https://www.telefonica.com/documents/162467/142176244/rdos18t2-data.zip. Net financial debt is also defined on the financial information published by the Group as of June 30, 2018 (see Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements for the 6-month ended June 30, 2018).
b) | Leverage ratio |
The leverage ratio is calculated as the ratio of net financial debt over OIBDA for the past 12 months, including or excluding the OIBDA of the companies which are incorporated or removed from the perimeter of consolidation, and excluding certain factors in line with the calculation of organic OIBDA.
The reconciliation of the leverage ratio can be found in the selected financial information contained in https://www.telefonica.com/documents/162467/142176244/rdos18t2-data.zip.
Free Cash Flow
The Groups free cash flow is calculated starting from Net cash flow provided by operating activities as indicated in the consolidated statement of cash flows; deducting (Payments on investments)/Proceeds from the sale of investments in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, net, adding the cash received form government grants and deducting dividends paid to minority interests. The cash used to cancel commitments related to employee benefits (originally included in the Net cash flow provided by operating activities) is added as it represents the payments of principal of the debt incurred with those employees.
We believe that free cash flow is a meaningful measure for investors and analysts because it provides an analysis of the cash flow available to protect solvency levels and to remunerate the parent companys shareholders and other equity holders (which is why free cash flows do not consider payments to minority interests). The same measure is used internally by our management. Nevertheless, free cash flow as calculated by us should not be considered as a substitute for the various flows of cash as presented in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
The reconciliation of net cash flow from operations, according to the consolidated statement of cash flows (on astraight-line basis) and the Groups Free cash flow according to the above definition, can be found on the selected financial information contained in https://www.telefonica.com/documents/162467/142176244/rdos18t2-data.zip. Free cash flow is also defined in the financial information published by the Group as of June 30, 2018 (see Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements for the 6-month ended June 30, 2018).
Organic Result
Year-on-year changes referred to in this document as organic or presented in organic terms intend to present a homogeneous comparison, by applying a constant perimeter of consolidation, constant exchange rates and other specific adjustments which are described herein. Organic variations provide useful information about the evolution of the business due to several factors:
| They provide information on the organic performance of the Groups operations in the different markets in which it operates, by maintaining constant exchange rates and perimeter, removing the impact of certain exogenous factors which may distort the year-on-year comparison since they are specific to a certain moment and not associated with the ordinary performance of the business (such as, for example, capital gains or losses from the sale of companies or restructuring associated to simplification plans and aimed at improving efficiency and future profitability of the Company) and therefore, helping the business performance analysis in homogeneous terms. |
46
| Organic results are therefore used both internally and by the various agents in the market to conduct consistent monitoring of trends and of the operating performance of the business. Moreover, this data helps the comparison between the business performance of Telefónica and that of other operators, although the term organic is not a term defined in IFRS, and the organic measures included herein may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. |
For the purposes of this document, organic variation 2018/2017 is defined as the reported variation adjusted by the following factors:
| Assumes average constant foreign exchange rates of 2017, except for Venezuela (2017 and 2018 results converted at the closing synthetic exchange rate for each period). |
| Considers a constant perimeter of consolidation. |
| Excludes in 2018 the impact of IFRS 15 accounting change. |
| At OIBDA and Operating cash flow levels, excludes write-downs, capital gains/losses from the sale of companies, sale of towers, restructuring expenses and non-recurrent material impacts. |
| CapEx also excludes investment in spectrum. |
Reconciliation between reported data and organic revenue figures, OIBDA and operating cash flow can be found in the selected financial information contained in https://www.telefonica.com/documents/162467/142176244/rdos18t2-data.zip.
The Management Report contained in the Consolidated Financial Statements for the period ended June 30, 2018 of Telefónica Group also includes the description of the adjustments for the calculation of the organic variations.
Underlying Result
Underlying results or results in underlying terms and year-on-year changes referred to in this document as underlying or presented in underlying terms intend to present a comparison with the adjustment of certain factors which distort the year-on-year comparison of the business performance. Unlike the organic result, no exchange rate or perimeter adjustments are made to the underlying result. Likewise, the underlying result is calculated up to net income, while organic variations are calculated up to the Operating Cash Flow (OIBDA - CapEx). The underlying result and variations, provide useful information for the company and market agents because:
| They provide additional information on the underlying performance of the Groups operations in the different markets, removing the impact of certain factors which distort the year-on-year comparison, as they are specific to a certain moment and not associated with the ordinary performance of the business, and facilitate the underlying analysis of the business. |
| The inclusion of the business underlying performance is used both internally and by the various agents in the market to perform consistent monitoring of trends and operating performance of the business; this data also facilitates the comparison between the business performance of Telefónica and that of other operators, although the term underlying is not a term defined in IFRS, and the underlying measures included herein may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. |
For the purposes of this document, underlying variation 2018/2017 is defined as the reported variation as adjusted by the following factors:
| Excludes in 2018 the impact of IFRS 15 accounting change. |
| At OIBDA level, excludes write-downs, capital gains/losses from the sale of companies, sale of towers, restructuring expenses and material non-recurrent impacts. |
| At net income level, amortisation of assets from purchase price allocation processes is also excluded. |
Reconciliation between reported data and OIBDA underlying figures and net can be found on the selected financial information contained on https://www.telefonica.com/documents/162467/142176244/rdos18t2-data.zip.
