For the financial year 2006 Telekom Austria Group expects operating revenues to rise by approximately 5% and adjusted EBITDA to increase by about 10%. Although depreciation and amortization charges are expected to be marginally higher due to the consolidation of Mobiltel, Telekom Austria anticipates that operating income and net income will rise by approximately 20%.
