Swisscom’s Bluewin TV ended Q2 with around 80,000 paying customers, or double the number 12 months earlier.
Its total broadband subscriber total meanwhile rose by 12.8% year-on-year to reach 1,699,000.
Swisscom’s net revenue in the first half of 2008 amounted to CHF5.991 billion (€3.696 billion), or 17.6% more than in the corresponding period in 2007.
At the same time, its EBITDA amounted to CHF2.472 billion, an increase of 18.9% year-on-year.
Swisscom attributes its most of its increase in revenues to the acquisition of Italy’s Fastweb in spring 2007.
