1) New accounting standard in force since January 2018, which requires revenues to be recognized based on the contract with the customer, not necessarily aligned with billing. For Vivo, revenue recognition of mobile offers with handset subsidy will change, as the subsidy will now be distributed between services and handsets. In addition, certain costs to acquire customers through contracts will now be capitalized if the amortization period is less than12 months.
2) Excludes the following non-recurring items: a positive effect of R$1,381.7 million, due to final judgment in the Superior Court of Justice, in favor of the Company, recognizing the right to deduct ICMS tax from the basis of calculation of PIS/COFINS contributions related to Vivo’s operations from 2004 to 2013; and an expense of R$487.1 million related to non-recurring tax contingencies recognized in 3Q18.

Net Mobile Revenues increased 1.8% y-o-y in 3Q18. Revenue growth is mainly due to the increase of Data and Digital Services Revenues (+8.2% y-o-y) and higher Handset Revenues (+72.4% y-o-y), thanks to strong sales activities in the period, up-selling of postpaid plans with larger data bundles to the customer base and sale of handsets through our physical and virtual channels. On the other hand, the macroeconomic scenario, the expansion of unlimited voice plans, lower interconnection tariffs, a decline in prepaid mobile revenues and the maturity of services such as Voice and SMS continued to negatively affect the performance of Net Mobile Revenues.
|
Outgoing Voice Revenues fell 28.1% from 3Q17, mainly reflecting the migration to data services. In addition, the prepaid segment continued to be influenced by the lower volume of top-ups in the annual comparison, mainly due to macroeconomic conditions and the migration of customers to hybrid plans. | |
Interconnection Revenues rose 14.2% over 3Q17, mainly due to the expansion of unlimited voice plans in the sector, partially offset by the MTR tariff reduction in February 2018. | ||
Data and Digital Services Revenues grew 8.2% y-o-y, driven by our strategy focused on data. For a further quarter, the higher adoption of Family Plans and increase of Digital Services Revenues contributed to this performance. In the quarter, Data and Digital Services Revenues represented 79.6% of Net Mobile Services Revenues, up 6.7 p.p. y-o-y. | ||
SMS (P2P Messaging) Revenues fell 18.7% y-o-y in 3Q18, reflecting the lower consumption of this service due to its maturity. | ||
Mobile Internet Revenues decreased 9.1% in the annual comparison. This performance was directly related to higher usage and consumption of digital services, leading to the migration of revenues between the lines. | ||
In 3Q18, Digital Services Revenues moved up 75.3% y-o-y, representing 34.6% of Data and Digital Services Revenues (+13.3 p.p.), due to the inclusion of value-added services in the prepaid, hybrid and pure postpaid plans since 2017. | ||
Handset Revenues rose 72.4% over the same quarter of the previous year, in line with the strategy of gaining market share in this relevant and growing market, through our brand and our sales channels, attracting high-end consumers to our physical and online stores. |

1) Broadband revenue includes residential and SME customers.
2) Non-voice revenues include revenues from Broadband, Corporate Data and IT, Pay TV and Other Services.
|
Voice Revenues dropped 16.3% y-o-y in 3Q18, mainly due to the maturity of the service and fixed-to-mobile substitution. | |
Interconnection Revenues moved up 14.2% y-o-y in 3Q18, mainly due to an agreement, related to fixed infrastructure capacity, partially offset by a reduction in TU-RL (-35.5%) and TU-RIU (-54.4%) in February 2018. | ||
Broadband Revenues rose 14.2% in 3Q18 over 3Q17, driven by the increase in Ultra-Broadband Revenues, which accounted for approximately 69.6% of this line in the period and grew 28.5% over the previous year, reflecting the Company’s efforts to expand the base and to migrate customers to higher speeds, fueling fiber accesses, whose ARPU is higher, in addition to expanding the FTTH network to 16 new cities in 2017 and 16 new cities in the first nine months of 2018. FTTH revenues climbed 48.2% over 3Q17. | ||
Corporate Data and IT Revenues fell 16.4% y-o-y, due the negotiation of a relevant corporate contract in 3Q17, which left a larger basis for comparison. Excluding this contract, Revenues would have grown 4.1% y-o-y, driven by data, cloud and IT services growth. | ||
Pay TV revenues increased 0.8% from 3Q17. The Company continued with its selective strategy for this service, focusing on higher-value products, such as IPTV, whose revenues grew 44.3% y-o-y, designed to improve customer experience and optimize the profitability of this service. |

1) Excludes the following non-recurring items: a positive effect of R$1,381.7 million, mainly due to final judgment in the Superior Court of Justice, in favor of the Company, recognizing the right to deduct ICMS tax from the basis of calculation of PIS/COFINS contributions related to Vivo’s operations from 2004 to 2013; and an expense of R$487.1 million related to non-recurring tax contingencies recognized in 3Q18.
Recurring Operating Costs, excluding Depreciation and Amortization expenses, decreased 4.2% over the same period last year, to R$6,905.3 million in the quarter, while inflation was +4.5% (IPCA 12M).
|
Personnel Costs declined 0.9% year over year, mainly due to the organizational restructuring implemented in 2Q18, partially offset by the effect of inflation on salaries and benefits in the period. | |
The Cost of Services Rendered fell 5.9% y-o-y in 3Q18, mainly because of lower regulatory taxes due to a strict policy of removing unprofitable customers from the base, costs related to a major contract negotiated in 3Q17, which did not occur this quarter, optimized energy consumption, and reductions in MTR/VC and TU-RL/TU-RIU in February 2018. |
The Cost of Goods Sold grew 23.0% over 3Q17, due to the Company's strategy of focusing on handset sales since 4Q17.

Selling Expenses fell 5.9% in 3Q18, reflecting the progress of the Company’s simplification, efficiency and digitalization initiatives. | ||
The Provision for Doubtful Accounts ended 3Q18 at R$406.0 million, due to the growth in sales activity, focusing on high-end customers (postpaid, FTTH and IPTV). The default level remained stable, almost in line with 2Q18, reaching 2.5% of Gross Revenues in 3Q18. | ||
Third-Party Services fell 6.8% in the annual comparison. The increase in digitalization in customer care, exemplified by the higher penetration of e-commerce in the sale of products and services, by the accelerated adoption of e-billing by new and existing customers, and by the technical support through virtual channels and the MEU VIVO app, led to a reduction in commissioning, billing-related (printing and mailing) costs, providing our customers with a unique and customized experience. | ||
Other Net Operating Revenues (Expenses) totaled revenues of R$870.9 million in the quarter, due to the non-recurring effects of the period, mainly related to the gain resulting from a judicial decision referring to the exclusion of ICMS from the base of PIS/COFINS collection for Vivo’s operations between 2004 and 2013. |

The increase in EBITDA was due to the growth in mobile and ultra-broadband revenues combined with effective and lasting cost-efficiency measures adopted by the Company in the period. | ||
Considering the non-recurring effects of the period, EBITDA increased 29.6% y-o-y in 3Q18 (R$4,766.5 million), with an EBITDA margin of 44.2%. |

Free Cash Flow from Business Activities reached R$1,844.1 million in 3Q18, 4.0% (R$76.0 million) lower than the same period of 2017, reflecting the increase in the Capex level, partially offset by an improved operating result. In 9M18, Free Cash Flow from Business Activities came to R$4,846.8 million, up 6.4% y-o-y (R$290.2 million), due to a better operating performance.
Free Cash Flow after non-recurring items fell R$190.6 million in 3Q18, mainly influenced by the extraordinary payment related to the organizational restructuring placed in 2Q18 and to PIS/COFINS contributions referring to the financial gain arising from the judicial decision won in the period.
