1 – Other Revenues includes Voice, xDSL, FTTC and
IPTV.
Net revenue continues to grow above inflation (+6.5% YoY), led
by the strong performance of Mobile Service Revenue (MSR)
(+9.3 YoY), driven by the double-digit growth of Postpaid
Revenue (+11.4% YoY). Postpaid's strong performance is related
to the increase in customer base (+6.6% YoY), both due to
migrations from prepaid as well as through the acquisition of new
customers, annual price adjustments, and by maintaining
postpaid's (ex-M2M) churn in its lowest historical level,
0.97% per month.
Fixed revenue maintained its positive performance
(+1.6% YoY), driven by the increase in FTTH Revenue, which
continued to expand strongly (+14.7% YoY) in 1Q24, because
of investments in network deployment and fiber customer additions.
FTTH network is currently present in 443 cities (+7
cities YoY) with 26.8 million homes passed (+10.0%
YoY) and 6.3 million homes connected (+12.3% YoY).
EBITDA totaled R$5,277 million
(+6.8% YoY), with a margin of 39.0% (+0.1 p.p. YoY), due
to the strong service revenue performance.
Operating Cash Flow totaled R$3,403 million (+4.5% YoY), with a margin of
25.1% (-0.5 p.p. YoY) over net revenue. In 1Q24, Capex
ex-IFRS16 totaled R$1,874
million (+11.2% YoY) or 13.8% of revenues (+0.6 p.p.
YoY), directed towards strengthening our mobile network.
Net income attributed to Telefônica Brasil reached
R$896 million in 1Q24 (+7.3%
YoY). Shareholder remuneration paid up to April reached
R$2,190 million, related to previous
interest on capital deliberations. Additionally, R$1,500 million from the resources resulting from
the capital reduction will be paid on July
10th, 2024, while R$53
million were invested in share buybacks. For the years
2024 to 2026, the Company has committed to distribute an amount
equal to or above 100% of net income for each fiscal year.
