Mobile Communication segment

Note: Detailed data of the Mobile Communication segment are shown in the appendix on pages 27, 28 & 29

Revenue decline primarily driven by weaker FX rates

Higher EBITDA contribution from new operations partly offset weakness of established operations

Revenues in the Mobile Communication segment decreased by 3.3% to EUR 2,422.7 million in the first nine months of 2009 mainly due to foreign currency translation. Revenues were also impacted by lower international roaming revenues, the expiry of the national roaming agreement in Croatia as well as lower prices for voice and data. Foreign currency translation effects had a negative impact on revenues in the amount of EUR 55.5 million. On a local currency basis revenues decreased slightly by 1.1%.

A higher EBITDA contribution from Belarus and the reduction of losses associated with the launch of operations in the Republic of Serbia and the Republic of Macedonia partly offset a lower EBITDA contribution from Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia and Slovenia and resulted in a decline in EBITDA by 7.0% to EUR 957.5 million in the first nine months of 2009. Foreign currency translation effects negatively impacted EBITDA by EUR 17.8 million. On a local currency basis EBITDA declined by 5.3%.

As a result of impairment charges in the amount of EUR 352.0 million related to the impairments of the goodwill in Belarus and the license in the Republic of Serbia, operating income declined from EUR 551.3 million to EUR 122.9 million during the first nine months of 2009. Excluding the impairment and on a local currency basis, operating income was EUR 474.7million.
