TURKCELL 3Q13 - BETTER

TL241m NI beat the cons of TL4m by wide margin but down by 60% y/y due to FX losses, increased interest expenses on loans, higher D&A, and higher tax rate. Financial costs were not as high as the consensus estimates; and strong top line and operational margins supported the bottom line to a level higher than market expectations. EBITDA of TL2,387m in 3Q18 (up by 47% y/y at 41.2% margin) was 7% above cons and was all time high. 2018 guidance upped for 20-22% top line growth (prev. 16-18%) and EBITDA margin of 39%-41% (prev. 37%-40%). Op. capex/sales guidance is unchanged at 18%-19%. Results are positive.
