Outlook

Outlook for 2001

The further development of traffic revenues will be decisive for the achievement of the budgeted full-year revenues, the first results of the new tariff schemes give encouraging signals. Cost cutting is on track.

Mobile Lower subscriber acquisition costs and the focus on quality customers in Austria as well as a growing contribution from Croatia should enable a stable margin development in spite of the additional costs expected for relaunching the Slovenian business.

Data Stronger revenue growth in the second half of the year should allow the achievement of the full year target; margins will fall due to higher intercompany prices for fixed line services.

Internet Focus in the second half of the year will be the enlargement of the broadband product portfolio and b-2-b activities for small and medium enterprises. Investments into the new internet portal as well as enhanced marketing initiatives lead to a higher costs base.
