Hrvatski Telekom 1Q 20 - Drop in handset sales due to Covid-19

The top line came in lower yoy and below our estimates, with declines in both Mobile (-3.5%) and Fixed (-5.7%) revenue categories. The System Solutions segment advanced 26.6% on customized and standard ICT solutions. Mobile revenues decline was mostly due to lower sales of handsets caused by Covid-19, but it was partially cushioned by strong post-paid revenues. Smartphone customers share rose from 67% in 1Q 19 to 70% driving the mobile data ARPU growth, both in prepaid and post-paid. Broadband & TV revenues were up on EvoTV's contribution (consolidation started in March 2019) as well as a higher customer base and higher broadband ARPU. Optima Telekoms contribution was down 18% due to the cancellation of the bilateral telco relationship with Telekom Slovenia. Crnogorski Telekoms revenues went down 4.2% as the growth in post-paid and TV was not able to offset decrease in fixed voice and mobile prepaid.
