DNA adds to pay TV base

Finnish telco DNA now has over 300,000 pay TV customers across its cable and terrestrial networks, while overall cable TV numbers have slipped slightly to 591,000, down 1,000 on the previous quarter.

DNA’s combined fixed-line voice, broadband and cable TV base fell to 1,016,000, down from 1,027,000 a year earlier.

Pay TV numbers were boosted by the September 2013 acquisition of PlusTV, which is now being renamed using the Welho brand already used for cable services.

DNA posted year-end net sales of €766.4 million, flat year-on-year, while EBITDA was also flat at €190.7 million.
