  • Telenor Third Quarter: Restructuring and Cost Reductions
    Telenor third quarter: Restructuring and cost reductions Telenor's third quarter results for 2002 show a strong profit and revenue growth in international operations, whereas the growth in the Norwegian market is in decline. Domestic operations are characterised by restructuring and a focus on efficiency and cost reductions. This has resulted in improved margins and lower investments in fixed and mobile networks in Norway. Major write-downs, primarily in Telenor Business Solutions, have produced a loss before taxes. Telenor's revenues in the third quarter were NOK 12,210 million, which is an increase of 21 per cent or NOK 2,146 million compared to the same period in 2001. Revenues increased in the first nine months by NOK 5,664 million, or 19 per cent, to NOK 35,784 million compared to the same period last year. Despite the increase in revenues, Telenor reports a loss before taxes and minority interests of NOK 105 million in the third quarter. This figure includes write-downs of NOK 738 million, which are primarily related to the restructuring of managed services in Telenor Business Solutions. For the first nine months the profit before taxes and minority interests was NOK 309 million. Telenor's third quarter results for 2002 are characterised by restructuring and a focus on cost reductions as a result of the decline in the domestic growth. The group programme Delta 4, of which the aim is to reduce the cost base by NOK 4 billion gross by the end of 2004 compared to 2001, is proceeding according to plan. Total savings of approximately NOK 700 million had been achieved by the end of the third quarter and by the end of the year the cost reductions will be around NOK 1 billion.
