Highlights • On 4 January 2011, OTH sold its entire shareholding in Orascom Tunisia Holding and Carthage Consortium through which OTH owned 50% of Orascom Telecom Tunisia (“OTT”). As a result the proportionate consolidation of OTT during Q4 is no longer applicable under IFRS as it renders the entity an investment held for sale, and consequently a discontinued operation under IFRS rules. Figures for 2009 and 9M 2010 have been restated to reflect the accounting treatment of OTT. • Total subscribers exceeded 101 million, an increase of 16% over the same period last year. • Net Income before minority interest showed a sharp increase of 106% compared to the same period last year, reaching US$ 781 million1 for the period ending December 31st, 2010, mainly due to the gain recognized on the Mobinil transaction by comparing the carrying amount of the investments in Mobinil and ECMS to the relevant fair value, taking into consideration the net proceeds from the transaction for the global settlement fee amounting to US$300 million. • Revenues reached US$ 3,825 million1, increasing by 2% over the previous year as a result of strong growth in all GSM operations, with the exception of Algeria.

Tigers' Den (banglalink's headquarters) atGulshan. In July, 2004, it was reported that Egypt based Orascom Telecom is set to purchase the Malaysian stakes in Sheba Telecom through a hush-hush deal, as Sheba had failed to tap the business potentials in Bangladesh mainly due to a chronic feud between its Malaysian and Bangladeshi partners. An agreement was reached with Orascom worth US$25 million was finalized in secret. The pact has been kept secret for legal reasons, considering financial fallout and because of the feud. The main reason for the undercover dealing was the joint venture agreement between the Bangladeshi and the Malaysian partners, which dictates that if any party sells its Sheba shares, the other party will enjoy the first right to buy that.

  • Vimpelcom Publishes Pro Forma Financial Information
    VIMPELCOM PUBLISHES PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION Amsterdam (August 18, 2011) - VimpelCom Ltd. (“VimpelCom” or the "Company") (NYSE: VIP), a leading global provider of telecommunications services, today announced, for comparative purposes only, the publication of unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information for 1Q10, 2Q10, 3Q10, 4Q10, FY10 and 1Q11. VimpelCom established a new organizational structure following the acquisition of Wind Telecom to support the successful development of VimpelCom’s enlarged commercial and geographic footprint. The Company’s corporate headquarters are in Amsterdam with centralized corporate functions. The Company has organized its business in five Business Units: o Russia; o Europe and North America (including Italy and Canada); o Africa and Asia (including Orascom Telecom and South East Asia); o Ukraine; and o The Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). The primary reporting segmentation for VimpelCom will be structured following these geographical Business Units. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presented in this press release reflects what the Company’s results of operations would have looked like had the Company’s transactions with Wind Telecom S.p.A. (“Wind Telecom”) and Kyivstar CJSC (“Kyivstar”) occurred on January 1, 2010 (the “Combination Transactions”). As previously reported, on April 21, 2010, VimpelCom completed the combination of OJSC “Vimpel- Communications” (“OJSC VimpelCom”) and Kyivstar CJSC (“Kyivstar”), and on April 15, 2011, VimpelCom acquired 100% of Wind Telecom. As a result of the Wind Telecom acquisition, the Company owns indirectly 51.7% of Orascom Telecom Holding S.A.E. (“Orascom Telecom”) and 100% of Wind Telecomunicazioni S.p.A. (“Wind Italy”). The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information assumes that all spin-offs that are part of the transaction consideration for Wind Telecom would have happened on January 1, 2010, and that the sale of Orascom Telecom Tunisia also happened on that date.
