Relevant Events

América Móvil’s consolidated financial statements comprise the results of Telmex and Telmex Internacional from July 1st. The historical figures presented in this report have been adjusted accordingly for comparison purposes. All financial information is presented under IFRS.

On October 7th, América Móvil’s Brazilian subsidiary Embratel closed its tender offer for non-voting shares of the Brazilian cable operator Net Serviços, having acquired 143.8 million shares at the tender price of 23 reais per share, thereby increasing its equity interest in Net Serviços to 77.3%(2) from 35% prior to the tender.

América Móvil Consolidated Results

With the economies recovering in our region of operations—some of them expanding quite rapidly—and data services continuing their rapid rise on both the fixed and wireless platforms, our operating and financial results for the third quarter turned out to be quite solid, with access lines exhibiting double-digit growth and wireless voice revenues picking up from last year.


Our third quarter revenues were up 5.3% from a year before, to 153.6 billion pesos, with wireless service revenues rising 9.1% and fixed-line revenues remaining flat. Within the wireless space data services continued to be the major driver of growth, exhibiting a 27.1% pace, with their share of wireless service revenues rising to 22.0%. In the fixed-line siness broadband and video services maintain a strong momentum and have compensated for the reduction in fixed voice revenues.


 

The quarter’s EBITDA was up 6.0% from the prior year to 63.0 billion pesos, bringing the total through September to 186.2 billion pesos. Depreciation and amortization charges where 10.3% higher  than a year before on account of faster depreciation schedules as the result of a revision in the useful lives of assorted telecom equipment to reflect the high rates of technological obsolescence.

Operating profits of 41.1 billion pesos in the quarter were up 3.9% year-on-year, as the expansion in EBITDA was partly offset by the higher depreciation charges. They helped bring about a net profit of 23.4 billion pesos after comprehensive financing costs of 7.6 billion pesos, the latter stemming mostly from our net interest expenses and the effects of certain currency and interest rate moves.

Mexico

Our Mexican operations ended September with 85.2 million accesses, 5.9% more than a year before as wireless lines —62.4 million—expanded 7.0% year-on-year and fixed line accesses—22.8 million—increased 2.9%. On the wireless front we gained 1.1 million clients in the third quarter for a total of 3.3 million subs in the nine months to September, whereas on the fixed-line side the gains in broadband accesses countered the reduction in voice lines, for a net increase of 99 thousand. Postpaid wireless subscribers continued to grow more rapidly than prepaids (21.9% vs. 5.6%) as Telcel’s wireless data capabilities continued to give it a competitive edge in that segment of the market.

The quarter’s revenues were up 2.9% year-on-year to 62.1 billion pesos. Wireless service revenues increased 8.6% led by data revenues that expanded 25.5%, whereas fixed line revenues declined 3.1% as the increase in broadband service revenues failed to fully offset the decline in fixed-line voice revenues. At 164 pesos, Telcel’s quarterly ARPU was slightly higher than the one observed the prior year, even in spite of the increase in the subscriber base that took place in the period, while MOUs reached an all-time high of 211, 8.1% higher than in the year-earlier quarter.

EBITDA came in at 33.0 billion pesos in the quarter, resulting in an EBITDA margin of 53.2%. In the absence of the integration, Telcel’s EBITDA margin would have been 57.8%, slightly higher year on year, and that of Telmex would have come down 3.7 percentage points from a year before, to 40.2%.

On October 4th, Telcel received from the Secretary of Communications and Transport (SCT) the titles for the concession of spectrum on the 1.7 GHz band obtained in the recent auction. It received a total of 210 MHz: 20 MHz nationwide (in each of the nine regions in which Mexico is divided) and an additional 10 MHz in three regions.

Brazil

We finished September with 48.8 million wireless subscribers in Brazil, having obtained 1.9 million subscribers in the third quarter—4.1% more than a year before—and 4.3 million subscribers year-to-date. Our wireless subscriber base increased 15.3% in the period. Our RGUs in the fixed-line business expanded 23.3% to 17.5 million, bringing the number of accesses we have in the country to 66.3 million, including nearly one million DTH subscribers, five times as many as a year ago.

Third quarter revenues increased 2.3% over the prior year to reach 5.3 billion reais, with wireless revenues—2.6 billion reais—accounting for slightly less than half of that amount. Wireless service revenues rose 4.5% driven by data revenues, which were up 25.1%, while fixed-line revenues expanded 5.1% on the back of broadband and video services.

Third quarter EBITDA increased 17.1% year-on-year to 1.6 billion reais, bringing the total for the first nine months of the year to 4.9 billion reais. The third quarter EBITDA margin, 31.1%, is four percentage points higher than that of the year-earlier quarter.

Our subsidiary Embratel closed its tender offer for the outstanding prefered shares of Net Serviços on October 7th. It acquired 143.8 million shares in the tender at a price of 23 reais per share. Embratel is now obliged, through January 13th, 2011, to buy any remaining shares that investors wish to sell at the same price. As of October 26th, Embratel has a 79.3% economic interest in that entity.

Colombia-Panama

We registered 371 thousand net subscriber additions in the quarter, 65.4% more than in 2009, which brought our net adds for the first three quarters to 956 thousand, with our subscriber base reaching 28.8 million wireless clients in September, 5.1% more than a year before. In the fixed-line side we ended the period with 2.9 million RGUs, 7.4% more than in the year-earlier quarter, with broadband being the fastest growing product line.

Our third quarter revenues, 1.8 trillion Colombian pesos, were up 9.2% year-on-year, with wireless revenues of 1.5 trillion Colombian pesos increasing 9.8% on the back of service revenues that rose 5.5% and equipment revenues that jumped 64.2% as net adds surged. Wireless service revenues were helped along by a 36.4% increase of data revenues. Fixed-line revenues, 303 billion Colombian pesos, were up 6.3% from a year before.

The quarter’s EBITDA of 818 billion Colombian pesos was 7.2% higher than that of the same quarter of 2009 in spite of the reacceleration of wireless subscriber growth. At 45.0% our margin for the period was slightly lower compared to the prior year. In the first nine months of 2010 our EBITDA added up to 2.5 trillion Colombian pesos, 10.3% more than the year before.

In September we began our DTH service in Panama.

Chile

Our operations in Chile ended the period with 4.4 million wireless subscribers, having added 336 thousand subscribers in the third quarter. The quarter’s net gains were nearly three times as high as those of the same period of 2009. One fourth of the quarter’s subscriber additions were postpaid, which resulted in our postpaid base growing 52.5% year-on-year compared to the 32.8% growth rate of our overall subscriber base. We had 795 thousand RGUs, 28.6% more than a year before, led by broadband accesses.

Our quarterly revenues of 113.2 billion Chilean pesos were up 22.6% over the prior year, with wireless revenues expanding at a somewhat faster pace (29.8%) driven by data revenues, which were up 74.1% annually. As regards our fixed line revenues, at 39.0 billion Chilean pesos they were 10.8% higher than in the year-earlier quarter. They now represent approximately 34% of our revenues.

Third quarter EBITDA of 8.9 billion Chilean pesos exceeded that of the previous year by 51.1%.

On October 26th we began to sell our fixed line products under the Claro brand.

Central America and the Caribbean

The net subscriber gains of our combined operations in Central America and the Caribbean totaled 304 thousand in the quarter, surpassing by 8.1% those of a year before and taking the total for the first nine months of the year to 1.2 million. Our wireless subscriber base in the region ended September with 16.8 million clients, a 10.1% increase on the same quarter of 2009, with both Central America and the Caribbean expanding at nearly equal rates.

United States

Tracfone added 745 thousand subscribers in the third quarter, 4.6% more than a year ago, to finish September with 16.7 million clients, a 26.2% year-on-year increase.

Our third quarter revenues came in at 738 million dollars, exceeding by 75.1% those of the same period of 2009, a reflection of the success of the company´s strategy to move upscale in the prepaid segment, which has resulted in its ARPU expanding by one third. In the nine months to September our revenues reached two billion dollars, having risen 69.3% year-on-year boosted by the sales of StraightTalk, its successful bucket-plan sold nationwide.

EBITDA for the period, 81 million dollars, was up slightly (3.9%) held back by the costs associated with the development and expansion of our StraightTalk brand, with the EBITDA margin for the period falling to 11.0% of revenues. EBITDA for the first three quarters was 227 million dollars.
