Xavier Pichon, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
2023 was definitely a pivotal year for Orange Belgium. The acquisition of VOO was clearly a milestone event of the year, which made us stronger in the market.
We have transformed our organization to act as One company, to maximize value creation and to materialize synergies following this acquisition.
In recent months, we have also been laying the foundations of our Lead the Future strategy. Regarding the first pillar on network leadership, we recently announced that Orange Belgium is Belgium's first telecom provider to offer a nationwide gigabit network, allowing 95% of Belgian citizens to enjoy very high broadband speeds of up to 1 Gbps. We had also promising results in terms of customer experience excellence, the second pillar of our strategy with an optimization of our digital touch points and our customer relation processes. We
are also proud of our achievements on the third pillar of our strategy about being a responsible company; notably, we overachieved our digital inclusion ambitions for 2023, while being on track with our CO2 emission reduction target.
2024 will be a challenging year with market evolutions but we remain very confident in our ability to execute our strategy.
Antoine Chouc, Chief Financial Officer, stated:
I am pleased to announce our financial results for the second half of 2023,
which for the first time include the consolidated figures of VOO for a whole semester. Our solid commercial performance, pricing adaptations and tight cost control enabled us to offset the impact of inflation on our margin. We are proud
to having slightly overachieved our EBITDAaL guidance.
Following the acquisition, we are strongly focused on executing the synergies: the MVNO migration has already been completed, the first purchasing synergies are being unlocked and the common go-to-markets will create significant efficiencies. These promising results 6 months after the closing make us confident that we will deliver the expected synergies and thus unlock significant value and contribute to our overall growth strategy.
For our 2024 guidance we foresee EBITDAaL between EUR515m and EUR535m, while eCapex
will be within the range of EUR365m and EUR385m.
2023 dividend
Considering the balance sheet impact of the acquisition of VOO, the Board of Directors will not propose any dividend for the financial year 2023 at the Annual General Meeting.
2024 outlook
The Company targets an EBITDAaL between EUR515m and EUR535m. Total eCapex in 2024 is
expected to be between EUR365m and EUR385m.
