Yesterday’s third quarter results set a pattern for BT’s financial year, with the telco continuing to balance consistent revenue declines against EBITDA improvements driven by its ongoing transformation and cost reduction strategy. The Q3 numbers now point to a 2% year on year drop in turnover for the full financial year.
All eyes are on BT’s long term plan which predicts an extra £1.5bn of normalised free cash flow by the end of the decade, derived solely from lower capex and operating costs enabled by its move to an all fibre, all IP network. But should the telco fail to simultaneously halt (and ideally reverse) the continuing revenue shrinkage in its Global and Enterprise divisions, those improvements could ultimately be academic.
