million (2013: 1.900 million subscribers).
Thanks to subscriber growth and the improved quality of the tariff mix,
gross profit rose by EUR23.6 million (19.8%) to EUR142.6 million (2013:

Average gross profit per MVNO user (AGPPU) increased by 3.9% to EUR6.47

the EBITDA margin increased by 5.0 percentage points to 29.4% (2013:

issued in 2012 rose by EUR10.5 million (16.9%) to EUR72.6 million (2013:
