Com Hem pushes Tele2 up

July 18, 2019 12.01 Europe/London By Julian Clover

Revenues at the Swedish telco Tele2 increased by 33% following its merger with cablenet Com Hem.

Tele2 reported revenue of SEK 6.8 billion, representing an organic decline of 2%.

The Com Hem TV base grew by 2,000 subscribers year-on-year following smaller price increases.

However, the Boxer pay-TV business continued to decline with a loss of 9,000 subscribers, largely due to customers connecting to fibre as it became available in their area. Revenues fell by 6%, largely on subscriber numbers, but offset in part by successful price adjustments.
