Makedonski Telekom AD-Skopje maintained the leading position on the fixed voice services market in 2015, show the unaudited consolidated financial statements as per the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

The sales revenues in 2015 amounted to MKD 10.615 million, which represents a decrease of 3.5% compared to 2014.

The operating profit before taxation at the end of 2015 amounted to MKD 1,421 million that is a decrease of 22.6% compared to the previous year, which reflects the revenue decrease that is partly compensated with the lower expenses.

The total net profit at the end of 2015 amounted to MKD 1.243 million which is an increase of 41.2% compared to the same period of the previous year. This is a result of the changes in the legislation pertaining to profit tax that are applicable as of the beginning of January 2014, under which the profit tax is paid at the moment of dividend distribution regardless of the ownership structure.

"After a longer period of decline, in 2015, we managed to slow down negative trend of revenues. Last year we reached the set targets, we strengthened our efficiency and at the same time we improved the customer and technical service. We transformed our technological leadership into a superior customer experience, as one of the key company focuses. After the legal merger of T-Mobile with Makedonski Telekom, the introduction of the single "Telekom" brand and the promotion of the new product portfolio "Magenta 1" we managed to further strengthen the position of Makedonski Telekom as the leading provider of integrated telecommunications services in the country" said Mr. Andreas Maierhofer, Chief Executive Officer of Makedonski Telekom.

According to the unaudited financial statements, at the end of 2015 Makedonski Telekom managed to maintain the leading position on the fixed voice services market with 62% market share (internal data). Despite the 12% drop in the fixed voice services revenues compared to 2014, with 225 thousand customers at the end of 2015 Makedonski Telekom maintained the leading position on the fixed voice services market.

The DSL customer base at the end of 2015 remained stable compared to the previous year, resulting in DSL customer base of 190 thousand, whereas the broadband internet market share amounted to 49.3% (internal data).

As a result of the high quality, the interactivity and the unique TV experience, in 2015 Makedonski Telekom achieved good results in the digital TV segment, i.e. the IPTV service. At the end of 2015, the number of MaxTV customers amounted to 103.4 thousand which is an increase of 5.3% compared to 2014. Thus Makedonski Telekom has the biggest share on the TV market reaching 24.3% of the total TV market (internal estimate).

In the mobile segment, Makedonski Telekom has a market share of 47.3% (internal estimate). The subscriber base at the end of 2015 had 1,230 thousand subscribers which is an increase of 2.7% compared to the end of 2014 when it had 1,197 thousand subscribers.

The mobile voice services revenues at the end of 2015 decreased by 11.2% compared to the same period of the previous year as a result of the decrease of the tariffs. The trend of increased usage of mobile services continues, where the packages include more and more minutes for the same price. Accordingly, the decrease of the tariffs and the increased competition resulted in the decrease of the Average Revenue per User (ARPU) by 8.6% compared to same period of 2014.

The revenues from non-voice services increased by 7.5% compared to 2014, as a result of the increased mobile internet revenues, the increased data traffic and the increased use of data tariff models. At the end of 2015, the System Integration and IT revenues increased by 145% compared to the same period of the previous year, as a result of the increased revenues from ICT projects, Cloud Computing services and other integrated solutions for business customers. For the most part, the increased revenues are resulting from the project with the public transport company "JSP Skopje" on the introduction of automatic fare collection.
