COMMENTS BY CEO, ALİ TAHA KOÇ, PhD
Resuming the Real Growth Path
As we celebrate our 30th anniversary at Turkcell Group, we
remain committed to creating value for our stakeholders through
strong foundations and an innovative vision. In line with our
strategic goals, we took a significant step by completing the sale
of our assets in Ukraine on September 9, 2024. The proceeds from
this transaction have been reflected in our third-quarter financial
results.
We have proudly led Türkiye's digitalization journey for over 30
years. We will now share our expertise and vision on the global
stage. With my recent election to the board of directors of GSMA,
the global GSM association, I am honored to represent not just the
Turkcell brand but also Türkiye. We will continue to make
significant contributions to the mobile communications sector and
the broader digital landscape under the GSMA umbrella.
We continue the renewable energy investments in line with our
plans. Recently, we completed the first phase of our solar energy
investments, installing 54 MW of power, with 6.4 MW already
activated in the third quarter. Following the acquisition of the
necessary permits, we will progressively bring the remaining
capacity online.
We delivered a strong quarter, driven by a robust ARPU
performance of Turkcell Türkiye, an expanding postpaid subscriber
base, and contributions from our Techfin business. In the third
quarter of 2024, our group revenues rose by 6.9% on an annual basis
to TRY 40.2 billion, while our EBITDA1 margin increased by 1.4
points to 44.2% despite the wage increase we made to protect the
purchasing power of our employees, who are our focus of value. Our
net income reached TRY 14.3 billion, with our strong operations,
which contributed TRY 3.1 billion, along with the proceeds from the
asset sale in Ukraine. In the third quarter, Turkcell Türkiye's
subscriber base increased by 322 thousand to 43.5 million.
Despite the aggressive competition, we achieved strong
operational results
In the third quarter, we continued to deliver a strong
operational performance. We gained a net of 515 thousand postpaid
subscribers, bringing our total net additions in the last 12 months
to 1.9 million. As a result, the share of our postpaid subscriber
base grew by 4 percentage points year-on-year, reaching 74%. Thanks
to our expanding postpaid subscriber base, price adjustments, and
successful upsell, our Mobile ARPU2 growth increased to 6.9%
year-over-year. Since May, we have observed increased activity in
the Mobile Number Portability (MNP) market due to the aggressive
pricing actions of competitors. This trend intensified further in
the third quarter as competition heightened. Increased competition,
along with seasonality, resulted in a mobile churn rate of 2.2% for
the third quarter.
In line with our customer-focused approach, we introduced our
'30th Year 1000 Mbps Speed Campaign' to our fixed broadband
customers in September. In the fixed broadband segment, we remain
focused on fiber subscribers, having gained 47 thousand net
subscribers thanks to the strong demand for our high-speed and
end-to-end fiber service, while our subscriber base exceeded 2.4
million. The share of our 12-month contract packages, implemented
to mitigate the effects of inflation, increased by 23 percentage
points year-on-year among our residential fiber subscribers,
reaching 82%. In the third quarter of 2024, our residential fiber
ARPU rose 15.1% year-on-year thanks to the increasing 12-month
contract subscriber share, upsell strategy and price adjustments in
fixed broadband services and IPTV.
Our Techfin business continues to support financial
performance
Our strategic focus area, Techfin, which includes our Financell3
and Paycell brands, continued to support group revenue strongly in
the third quarter. Financell grew by 38.1% on an annual basis,
recording a revenue of TRY 1.1 billion, supported by the increase
in average interest rates, while the net interest margin of 4.1%
continued to improve. On the other hand, Paycell revenues grew by
19.6%, reaching TRY 970 million, driven by the high demand for our
POS solutions and the increasing volume of Paycell Card. The
transaction volume of the "Pay Later" mobile payment service, which
has the largest share in Paycell revenues, increased by 24%
(non-group) to TRY 3.1 billion. Since its launch, our POS solutions
have exceeded demand expectations, maintaining a strong performance
with an 86% increase in transaction volume.
The number of standalone paid users of our digital services4
decreased by 14% year-on-year, reaching 5.0 million, in line with
our expectations as we prioritized profitability. Meanwhile, our
TV+ platform, which has consistently expanded its market share
since its launch, has now become the second-largest player in the
market, according to the ICTA's second-quarter report.
In our Digital Business Services portfolio, the revenues from
our four next-generation data centers, with a total IT capacity of
55 MW –33 MW of which is active—and cloud services offering
value-added services, grew by 43% in the third quarter, reaching
TRY 639 million. We are committed to expanding the capacity of our
data centers, which will remain a key strategic priority in the
years ahead.
We revise our guidance
Due to higher-than-expected inflation in the second half of the
year, we have revised our year-end inflation forecast upwards.
Accordingly, we are updating our revenue growth target5 for 2024 to
approximately 7%. We maintain our EBITDA margin expectation at
approximately 42% and our operational capex to sales6 ratio target
at approximately 23%.
I extend my heartfelt thanks to all our employees for their
contributions to our success and express my gratitude to our Board
of Directors for their continued support.

Revenue of the Group rose 6.9% year-on-year in Q324. This
was mainly driven by Turkcell Türkiye’s strong performance
supported by a larger postpaid subscriber base that generates more
ARPU than prepaid subscribers, upsell efforts and a solid increase
in fixed segment ARPU. The Techfin segment’s solid revenue growth
of 30.9% also supported the Group revenue increase.
Turkcell Türkiye revenues, comprising 87% of Group revenues,
rose 7.1% year-on-year to TRY34,854 million (TRY32,550
million).
- Consumer segment4 revenues grew 10.8%
year-on-year on the back of rising postpaid subscriber share, price
adjustments, and upsell efforts.
- Corporate segment4 revenues declined by
1.4% year-on-year. Constrained demand in the tightening economic
environment negatively impacted the hardware revenues of digital
business services, which declined by 44.1% year-on-year. Recurring
service revenues rose 18% year on year.
(4) Following the change in organizational structure, the
revenues from sole proprietorship subscribers that we define as
Merchant, which were previously managed under the Corporate
segment, are being reported under the Consumer segment as of and
from the third quarter of 2023. Within this scope, past data has
been revised for comparative purposes.
- Standalone digital services revenues across
consumer and corporate segments rose 4% year-on-year, primarily
attributed to price adjustments, despite the continued shrinkage of
the paid user base in consequence of our profitability-focused
strategy.
- Wholesale revenues were down 9.9%
year-on-year to TRY2,378 million (TRY2,639 million), resulting from
alternative data solutions in the market.
Turkcell International1 revenues, comprising 2% of Group
revenues, rose 20.6% to TRY935 million (TRY775 million).
Techfin segment revenues, comprising 5% of Group revenues, were
up 30.9% year-on-year to TRY2,132 million (TRY1,629 million).
Financell’s revenue grew 38.1%, and Paycell’s revenues increased
19.6% year-on-year. Please refer to the Techfin section for
details.
Other segment revenues, at 6% of Group revenues, which mostly
include non-group call center and energy business revenues and
consumer electronics sales revenues, declined 14.6% year-on-year to
TRY2,251 million (TRY2,636 million). This was primarily caused by
weak demand for consumer electronics.
Cost of revenue (excluding depreciation and amortization)
decreased to 44.8% (47.8%) as a percentage of revenues in Q324. The
decline in the cost of goods sold (2.2pp), interconnection cost
(1.1pp), and other cost items (1.2pp) outweighed the rise in
personnel expenses (0.9pp) and funding cost (0.6pp) as a percentage
of revenues.
Administrative Expenses increased to 4.1% (3.2%) as a
percentage of revenues in Q324. This was mainly led by higher
employee expenses (0.7pp) as a percentage of revenues.
Selling and Marketing Expenses increased to 6.3% (5.4%)
as a percentage of revenues in Q324, due mainly to the rise in
personnel expenses (0.6pp) as a percentage of revenues.
Net impairment losses on financial and contract assets
decreased to 0.6% (0.8%) as a percentage of revenues in Q324.
EBITDA2 grew 10.4% year-on-year in Q324, leading to an
EBITDA margin of 44.2% (42.8%).
- Turkcell Türkiye’s EBITDA rose 12.6%
year-on-year to TRY16,739 million (TRY14,865 million) with an
EBITDA margin of 48.0% (45.7%). The primary contributors to margin
improvement were lower interconnection costs and a reduction in
cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenues.
- Turkcell International EBITDA declined 1.2%
year-on-year to TRY365 million (TRY369 million), leading to an
EBITDA margin of 39.1% (47.6%). The increase in personnel expenses
led to a margin dilution.
- Techfin segment EBITDA decreased 4.1%
year-on-year to TRY595 million (TRY620 million) with an EBITDA
margin of 27.9% (38.1%). This was driven by increases in funding
costs for Financell and administrative expenses as a percentage of
revenues.
- The EBITDA of other subsidiaries was at
TRY58 million (TRY236 million).
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased 8.8%
year-on-year in Q324.
Net finance expense of TRY345 million (positive TRY2,187
million) was recorded for Q324, including a TRY1.5 billion monetary
gain and net FX losses of TRY1.8 billion.
See Appendix A for details of net foreign exchange gain and
loss.
Other expenses decreased to TRY179 million (TRY2,916
million) in Q324.
Income tax expense was TRY2,290 million (TRY9,764
million) in this quarter. Higher corporate tax was more than offset
by lower deferred tax expenses.
(1) As per our Company’s announcement on September 9, 2024, we
no longer hold any shares in companies operating in Ukraine as of
Q324. (2) EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. See page 14 for
the explanation of how we calculate adjusted EBITDA and its
reconciliation to net income.
Profit /(loss) from discontinued operations of TRY11,214
million (TRY266 million) was recorded in Q324. This figure includes
Ukrainian assets sales.
Net income of the Group was TRY14.3 billion (negative
TRY4,495 million) in Q324, thanks to our solid operations and the
proceeds from the sale of our Ukrainian assets.
Total cash & debt: Thanks to the proceeds from the
sale of our companies operating in Ukraine, consolidated cash as of
September 30, 2024, increased to TRY81,009 million compared to
TRY67,901 million as of December 31, 2023. Excluding FX swap
transactions, 57% of our cash is in US$, 21% in EUR, 1% in CNY, and
22% in TRY.
Consolidated debt as of September 30, 2024, decreased to
TRY106,728 million from TRY114,237 million as of December 31, 2023.
TRY3,894 million of our consolidated debt is comprised of lease
obligations. Please note that 40% of our consolidated debt is in
US$, 35% in EUR, 3% in CNY, and 21% in TRY.
Net debt1 as of September 30, 2024, decreased to TRY9,360
million from TRY32,339 million as of December 31, 2023, with a net
debt to EBITDA ratio of 0.1x times.
Turkcell Group had a long FX position of US$228 million at the

In Q324, Turkcell Türkiye experienced a net increase of 322
thousand subscribers, resulting in a total subscriber base of 43.5
million. The mobile subscriber base totaled 38.7 million, with a
net add of 250 thousand in this quarter. Our commitment to
expanding our postpaid subscriber base, coupled with successful
switch performance, led to a quarterly net add of 515 thousand
postpaid subscribers. Over the first nine months of the year, we
recorded net adds of 1.5 million postpaid subscribers. Accordingly,
postpaid subscribers account for 73.9% (69.8%) of our mobile
segment as of the end of Q324. Despite the high tourist activity
during the summer months, our prepaid customer base contracted by
266 thousand during the quarter. This reduction can be primarily
attributed to the widespread usage of alternative data solutions
(eSIM technology).
As the market leader in the mobile segment, we prioritize market
rationalization. Nevertheless, we have faced aggressive pricing
actions from competitors since May 2024, leading to high volatility
in the MNP (Mobile Number Portability) market which increased by
47% compared to the previous quarter. Accordingly, the average
monthly mobile churn rate slightly increased to 2.2% in Q324.
Please recall that the innovative campaigns, primarily the “30th
Anniversary Double-Up,” as well as Ramadan and Eid holidays,
contributed to the previous quarter’s churn rate. Our mobile ARPU
(excluding M2M) rose 6.9% year-on-year, driven mainly by a rising
postpaid subscriber base, price adjustments, and upsell
efforts.
In the fixed business, our subscriber base exceeded 3.2 million
on 44 thousand quarterly net additions. Thanks to our fiber focus,
the fiber subscriber base grew by 47 thousand in this quarter.
Residential fiber ARPU growth was 15.1% year-on-year in Q324 due to
an increase in the share of 12-month contract subscribers and
expanding high-speed tariffs’ share, price adjustments, and premium
pricing in IPTV. The average monthly fixed churn rate remained
steady at 1.6% in Q324 on a yearly basis.

(1) BeST, in which we hold a 100% stake, has operated in Belarus
since July 2008.
BeST revenues grew 25.6% year-on-year in Q324 in local
currency terms, driven by a rise in data, voice revenues, and
bulk-SMS in Q324. BeST’s EBITDA grew 23.9% year-on-year, resulting
in an EBITDA margin of 45.0%. BeST’s revenues in TRY terms rose
41.6% year-on-year in Q324.
BeST continued to offer LTE services to all six regions,
encompassing 4.4 thousand sites in Q324. Enhanced LTE coverage has
enabled BeST to expand its 4G subscriber base. Accordingly, 4G
users reached 85% of the 3-month active subscriber base, which
continued to support mobile data consumption and digital services
usage. Additionally, the average monthly data usage among 4G
subscribers increased 7% year-on-year, reaching 20.4 GB in
Q324.

year-on-year in the third quarter of 2024 due to price adjustments.
The EBITDA of Kuzey Kıbrıs Turkcell declined by 2.6%, resulting in
a 39.4% EBITDA margin. This margin decrease was primarily
attributed to increased personnel expenses.

Paycell has seen another quarter of robust financial results.
Revenues grew by 19.6% year-on-year in the quarter. The main
drivers of this performance were POS solutions and prepaid card
& money transactions, thanks to increasing volume and
commission. Paycell’s EBITDA rose 9.2% year-on-year, resulting in
an EBITDA margin of 45.0% in Q324.
Strong momentum on the POS solution has continued in this
quarter, resulting in an 86% volume increase on a yearly basis. The
Pay Later service, the revenues of which account for 56% of the
Paycell topline, reached a TRY3.1 billion transaction volume
(non-group) in Q324, up 24% year-on-year. 3-month active Pay Later
users grew by 5% to 6.2 million. Moreover, the Paycell card
transaction volume experienced robust growth, rising 87%
year-on-year to TRY7.4 billion. Meanwhile, the total transaction
volume across all services expanded by 46% to TRY26.7 billion
year-on-year in Q324.

(1) Following the change in the organizational structure, the
revenues of Turkcell Sigorta Aracılık Hizmetleri A.Ş. (Insurance
Agency), which was previously managed under Financell, have been
reclassified from Financell to "Other" in the Techfin segment as of
the first quarter of 2023.
Financell’s revenues rose 38.1% year-on-year in Q324, driven
mainly by the expanding loan portfolio, as well as the higher
average interest rate on the loan portfolio when compared to the
same period of the last year. EBITDA margin realized at 18.5%.
Financell’s loan portfolio was at TRY6.3 billion in Q324.
Financell’s cost of risk was at 2.8% at the end of the quarter. As
we emphasized in the previous quarter, Financell began offering
loans at varying rates based on customers’ individual risk
profiles. This approach not only improves customer access and
financial inclusion, but also mitigates the negative impact of
installment limitations on consumer loans for smartphones above
TRY12,000 threshold.
Turkcell Group Subscribers
Turkcell Group registered subscribers amounted to approximately
45.6 million as of September 30, 2024. This figure is calculated by

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASUREMENTS: We
believe Adjusted EBITDA, among other measures, facilitates
performance comparisons from period to period and management
decision making. It also facilitates performance comparisons from
company to company. Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure
eliminates potential differences caused by variations in capital
structures (affecting interest expense), tax positions (such as the
impact of changes in effective tax rates on periods or companies)
and the age and book depreciation of tangible and intangible assets
(affecting relative depreciation expense and amortization expense).
We also present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it is frequently
used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties
in evaluating the performance of other mobile operators in the
telecommunications industry in Europe, many of which present
Adjusted EBITDA when reporting their results.
Our Adjusted EBITDA definition includes Revenue, Cost of Revenue
excluding depreciation and amortization, Selling and Marketing
expenses, Administrative expenses and Net impairment losses on
financial and contract assets, but excludes finance income and
expense, other operating income and expense, investment activity
income and expense, share of profit of equity accounted investees
and minority interest.
Nevertheless, Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical
tool, and you should not consider it in isolation from, or as a
substitute for analysis of our results of operations, as reported
under IFRS. The following table provides a reconciliation of
Adjusted EBITDA, as calculated using financial data prepared in
accordance with IFRS to net profit, which we believe is the most
directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in
accordance with IFRS.

RECONCILIATION OF ARPU: ARPU is an operational
measurement tool and the methodology for calculating performance
measures such as ARPU varies substantially among operators and is
not standardized across the telecommunications industry, and
reported performance measures thus vary from those that may result
from the use of a single methodology. Management believes this
measure is helpful in assessing the development of our services
over time. The following table shows the reconciliation of Turkcell
Türkiye revenues to such revenues included in the ARPU calculations
for Q3 2023 and Q3 2024.
