RCS&RDS declined comment on financial figures.
The increase was most likely generated by the expansion of the company’s cable TV and fixed Internet service operations, its most important lines of business.
In mid last year, RCS&RDS had 2.4 million cable TV customers and 1.6 million fixed Internet customers, or 62% of the local cable TV market customers and 47% of the Internet market customers, according to the data revealed in the prospectus of the bond issue that helped RCS&RDS raise EUR450 million at the end of last year.
The revenue of the entire RCS&RDS group (which includes international markets) stands at more than EUR600 million a year.
