Orange (ORA.FR) said Tuesday that first-quarter revenue remained
broadly stable, as growth in most markets offset a slight downturn
in France.
Revenue fell 0.1% on a comparable basis in the first quarter to
10.19 billion euros ($11.38 billion) compared with EUR10.2 billion
a year ago, the French telecommunications company said.
Analysts expected Orange to generate EUR10.15 billion in revenue
during the three-month period, according to consensus estimates
provided by Orange.
Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization after leasing, or Ebitdaal, rose 0.7% to EUR2.58
billion despite the negative impact of promotional offers, Orange
said. The company said it began using Ebitdaal as a financial
indicator in January to account for the adoption of the IFRS 16
accounting standard.
Orange said revenue in France fell 1.8% to EUR4.41 billion due
to the effects of a "fierce promotional environment." In Spain,
revenue rose 0.4% to EUR1.32 billion, while revenue in the
company's Middle East and Africa segment increased 5.3% to EUR1.35
billion.
The company confirmed its full-year targets, including "slightly
lower" Ebitdaal growth on a comparable basis compared with 2018 and
higher operating cash flow on a comparable basis.
