►   Customer base

The Group customer base reaches 67.5 million customers, up 11.1%. This growth was due both to the Mobile and Fixed line customer bases in Morocco (+5.2% and 3.5% respectively) and the extension of the Group's scope with the consolidation of Tigo Chad as a subsidiary in July 2019.

►   Revenues

In 2019, Maroc Telecom Group generated total revenues⁽⁴⁾ of MAD 36,517 million, up 1.3% (+0.9% on a like-for-like basis⁽¹⁾). This performance reflects both the continued growth in activities in Morocco and the resilience of international activities despite the increased competition and regulatory pressure.

At the end of 2019, Maroc Telecom Group's adjusted earnings from operations (EBITA)⁽⁵⁾ amounted to MAD 11,540 million, up 4.3% on a like-for-like basis⁽¹⁾.

►   Group share of net income

The Group share of adjusted Net Income was up 1.0% on a like-for-like basis⁽¹⁾.

►   Cash Flow

Adjusted Cash Flow From Operations (CFFO)⁽⁶⁾ was up 33.8% (+29.0% on a like-for-like basis⁽¹⁾), to MAD 13,352 million due to the increased EBITDA and effective management of working capital requirements (WCR).

At December 31, 2019, Maroc Telecom Group's consolidated net debt⁽⁷⁾ represented 0.9 time the Group's annual EBITDA excluding the impact of IFRS16.

►   ANRT decision

The decision taken by the Management Committee of the ANRT on January 17, 2020, relating to anti-competitive practices on the fixed-line market and fixed broadband internet access, has been notified to Maroc Telecom on January 27, 2020.

In this context, Maroc Telecom has made a provision in its accounts as of 31 December 2019  for an amount of MAD 3.3 billion.

In a difficult competitive and regulatory environment, the Group's international activities generated revenues of MAD 16,095 million, practically unchanged compared with the same period in 2018 (+0.3% on a reported basis and -0.6% on a like-for-like basis⁽¹⁾). This change is mainly attributable to the reduction in Mobile termination rates and in international incoming revenues, partially offset by the increase in Mobile Data and Mobile Money services. Excluding the impact of the reduction in call termination rates, revenues were up 1.2% on a like-for-like basis⁽¹⁾.

In 2019, earnings from operations before depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) amounted to MAD 6,629 million, unchanged on a like-for-like basis⁽¹⁾. The EBITDA margin rose 0.2 points on a like-for-like basis⁽¹⁾ to 41.2%.This performance was due to an improved gross margin related to the reduction in call termination, despite the fiscal and sectoral growing pressure in certain countries. Excluding the impact of fiscal and sectoral taxes, the EBITDA margin would have been improved by 1.7 pt.

Over the same period, adjusted earnings from operations (EBITA)⁽⁵⁾ were down 5.4% (- 5.0% on a like-for-like basis⁽¹⁾) to MAD 3,246 million, owing to increased amortization and depreciation expenses.

Adjusted cash flows from operations (CFFO)⁽⁶⁾ from International activities were up by 58.1% (+47.3% on a like-for-like basis⁽¹⁾) to MAD 3,927 million. This performance is explained by optimal management of working capital requirements.
