  • Service revenue expanded by 11.3% in Mexican peso terms, with EBITDA increasing by 11.9%, reflecting strong operational performance.
  • The company achieved a net profit of MXN6.4 billion, nearly tripling from the previous year, driven by higher operating profit and reduced financing costs.

  • The company experienced disconnections in the prepaid segment, particularly in Brazil and Mexico, with 243,000 and 136,000 disconnections respectively.
  • Net debt increased by MXN47.3 billion relative to December 2023, partly due to the depreciation of the Mexican peso impacting non-peso financial obligations.
