FIBER REVENUES

Reported currency, SEK in millions, B2C
  • At 1.6 million homes passed, Telia remains the largest player
  • Positive recurring fiber revenue trend
  • Fiber installation revenues negatively impacted Q2 by permit

and other intermediary related issues

  • Total installation revenues 2017 likely to be 15-20 percent

lower than in 2016, consequently lower CAPEX

  • Fiber prices adjusted
