TOTAL PLAY ANNOUNCES REVENUE OF Ps.9,303 MILLION AND EBITDA OF Ps.4,055 MILLION IN THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2022


MEXICO CITY, Oct. 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Total Play Telecomunicaciones, S.A.P.I. de C.V. ("Total Play"), a leading telecommunications company in Mexico, which offers internet access, pay television and telephone services, through one of the largest 100% fiber optic networks in the country, today announced financial results for the third quarter of 2022.

Third quarter results

Revenue for the quarter totaled Ps.9,303 million, compared to Ps.7,270 million from the previous year. Total costs and expenses were Ps.5,248 million, from Ps.4,214 million a year ago.

As a result, Total Play's EBITDA totaled Ps.4,055 million, from Ps.3,056 million the previous year. The company registered operating income of Ps.640 million, compared to Ps.753 million a year ago. Total Play reported net loss of Ps.1,843 million, from loss of Ps.836 million in the same period of 2021.

Revenue from services

The growth in Total Play's revenue in the quarter is mainly the result of increased sales in the residential segment, due to higher demand from households for the company's telecommunications services. The continuous increase in Total Play´s income is reaffirmed this period despite intense competition in the industry — which affects market prices — and the normalization of face-to-face activities throughout the country. This shows the growing preference of users for the superior attributes of our internet, pay television and telephony services, which optimally satisfy the connectivity and entertainment needs of millions of homes.

Costs and expenses

Total costs and expenses grew 25%, as a result of a 21% increase in service costs and a 27% increase in general expenses. The growth in costs, to Ps.1,983 million, from Ps.1,635 million in the previous year, results mainly from the purchase of content, memberships, link rentals and other interconnection services and licenses for network operation.

The increase in expenses, to Ps.3,265 million, from Ps.2,579 million, reflects higher personnel, advertising and promotion, maintenance, as well as call center expenses, in the context of growing operations in the company.

EBITDA and net result

Total Play's EBITDA was Ps.4,055 million compared to Ps.3,056 million in the previous year.

Relevant variations below EBITDA were the following:

Growth of Ps.1,111 million in depreciation and amortization, as a result of user acquisition costs — telecommunications equipment, labor and installation expenses — as well as investments in fiber optic network coverage.

Increase of Ps.155 million in interest payments, derived mainly from an increase in the balance of financial debt.

Growth of Ps.122 million in other financial expenses as a result of those related to debt issuances and derivative financial instruments.

Increase of Ps.89 million in foreign exchange loss in the period, as a result of a higher net liability monetary position in dollars this period, compared to the previous year, together with depreciation of the peso against the dollar in both quarters.

Total Play reported a net loss of Ps.1,843 million, from a loss of Ps.836 million in the same period of 2021.

Balance sheet

As of September 30, 2022, the company's debt with cost was Ps.46,915 million, compared to Ps.40,671 million in the previous year. The growth of the debt balance is related to the issuance of Certificados Bursátiles and loans from financial institutions during the period.

The lease liability was Ps.6,485 million, compared to Ps.4,738 million in the previous year.
