Mobilink’s revenue decreased 6% YoY to PKR 26 billion during fourth quarter of FY2013, down from Rs. 27.2 billion during the same duration last year.<br />

Company said that this negative growth is mainly because of unstable 
security situation, higher withholding taxes and government requested 
network shutdowns during religious events.<br />

Company’s revenues for entire FY2013 stood at Rs. 108 billion, slightly up from Rs. 106 billion it generated an year ago.<br />

Mobilink’s EBITDA during Q4 FY 2013 fell 18 percent to Rs. 10 billion
 from Rs. 12 billion during the same duration last year. EBITDA margin 
was down 5.8 percentage points at 37.2 percent.<br />
Financial report released by VimpelCom – the parent group of Mobilink
 – said that regulatory measures increased costs related to new sales, 
power outages and lower interconnect charges due to increased focus on 
on-net deals impacted the overall EBITDA.
<br />
Due to network modernization project going on, CAPEX in FY13 
increased by 10% to USD 190 million. With this investment, Mobilink 
expects not only to further enhance the data and voice services it 
provides to its customers, but also to pave the way to introducing 3G 
services as soon as these are licensed.<br />
