The number of individual subscribers to Com Hem’s cable service in Sweden climbed by 4,000 on the quarter to reach a record high of 987,000.
The operator continues to enjoy continued growth in broadband with another 7,000 RGUs added to a new high of 757,000.
Operating profit of SEK 222 million compares with 232 million in previous years.
However, it wasn’t all good news as Digital TV RGU’s declined by 1,000 to 653,000 following price increases, though TiVo customers increased by 3,000 (a penetration rate of 41%).
Price increases also impacted on churn at Com Hem’s DTT platform Boxer. Churn remains at 19.3% while it lost 7,000 more RGUs.
Com Hem’s own churn has increased to 14.8% from 13.6%, again related to price increases.
