Event Summary

Telenor reported robust financial results for Q4 and the full year 2025, demonstrating strong growth in its Nordic operations. CEO Benedicte Schilbred Fasmer highlighted the company's progress in simplifying its portfolio, including the sale of Allente to Viaplay Group, the disposal of Telenor===Telenor Pakistan, and the agreement to divest its stake in True Corporation. These strategic moves are aimed at creating a more Nordic-centric Telenor, freeing up capital, and reducing risk. The company announced a proposed dividend of NOK 9.70 per share and a planned three-year share buyback program of NOK 15 billion. Proceeds from the True Corporation sale will also be used to repay a bond loan and fund the acquisition of GlobalConnect Norway B2C. Telenor also emphasized its role in cybersecurity, having stopped billions of digital attacks in 2025, and the performance of KNL Networks in providing critical communication solutions to the Finnish and Swedish Armed Forces. The financial outlook for 2026 projects continued low to mid-single-digit organic growth in Nordic service revenues and adjusted EBITDA.
