1 – Other Revenues includes Voice, xDSL, FTTC and IPTV.
Net revenue grew (+7.4% YoY), driven by the strong performance of Mobile Service Revenue (MSR) (+8.8 YoY), which was boosted by the growth of Postpaid Revenue (+9.7% YoY). Postpaid's strong performance is related to the increase in customer base (+7.2% YoY), both due to migrations from prepaid as well as to the acquisition of new customers, annual price adjustments, and by maintaining postpaid's (ex-M2M) churn in historical low levels, 0.99% per month.
Fixed revenue had the biggest increase since 2015, +3.9% YoY, mainly driven by the increase in FTTH Revenue, which continued to expand strongly (+17.1% YoY) in 2Q24. FTTH network is currently present in 444 cities (+5 cities YoY) with 27.3 million homes passed (+10.5% YoY) and 6.5 million homes connected (+12.7% YoY).
EBITDA totaled R$5,455 million (+7.3% YoY), with a margin of 39.9% (-0.1 p.p. YoY), due to the strong service revenue performance.
Operating Cash Flow totaled R$3,114 million (+14.0% YoY), with a margin of 22.8% (+1.3 p.p. YoY) over net revenue. In 2Q24, Capex ex-IFRS16 totaled R$2,341 million (-0.5% YoY) or 17.1% of revenues (-1.4 p.p. YoY), directed towards strengthening our mobile network.
