This growth has been mainly driven by (i) a lower 123 178 151 199 73 139 churn ratio (churn fell to 13.9% from 14.3% in 2014), (ii) an improved GARPU (Global ARPU grew by €2.18 YoY up to

194 218 €55.75) and (iii) an ongoing increase in mobile customer penetration rate. In terms of fixed customers in 2015, both the 172 205 141 187 number of customers and the number of RGUs per customer have slightly increased vs. 2014 (from 279,212 to 279,353

This trend is stabilizing quarter after quarter, namely: -4.8% in the first quarter, -0.5% in the second quarter and -0.5% in the third quarter, mainly driven by an accelerated revenue growth in SoHo and the stabilization in SMEs and Large Accounts segments. • Other Revenue is in line with 2014 levels, despite the negative evolution of Wholesale revenues on the back of regulatory changes in the last quarter of 2014.
