Eltel’s Q4 and FY 2016 operative EBITA significantly below previous guidance – Q4 report to be published one day earlier

Report this content

On 26 January 2017, Eltel estimated that Group’s full-year 2016 operative EBITA would be in the range EUR 17-22 million and EUR 0-6 million in the fourth quarter 2016. Based on conclusions in the conducted investigation of certain projects, led by a team of external auditors, required provisions are significantly higher than previously estimated. Consequently, Group’s full-year 2016 operative EBITA is expected to be in the range EUR 0-3 million.

Due to these circumstances, Eltel will publish its full-year 2016 and fourth quarter interim report one day earlier than communicated, on Tuesday 21 February 2017 at 7.00 CET.

Eltel’s CEO Håkan Kirstein, interim CFO Lars Nilsson and Chairman of the Board Ulf Lundahl will host a presentation via audiocast in English starting at 9.00 CET. The interim report and the presentation will include structural measures and strategic revisions.

The presentation will be audiocasted live on www.eltelgroup.com. For those who would like to participate on the telephone conference in connection with the presentation, the telephone numbers are:
