Key Terms

ias 34, adjusted ebitda, equity free cash flow, earn-out, +4 more

8 terms

ias 34 regulatory

"links to the Q4 2025 Earnings Release and IAS 34 Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements."

IAS 34 is an international accounting standard that requires companies to prepare interim financial reports—shorter updates like quarterly or half‑year statements—showing condensed but reliable information on profit, assets and cash flow between annual reports. It matters to investors because these regular snapshots make it easier to spot trends, risks or improvements sooner than waiting for a full-year report, much like checking a progress report between school terms to track performance and momentum.

adjusted ebitda financial

"Operating profit $469 million, and Adjusted EBITDA of $778 million, which includes $45 million"

Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.

equity free cash flow financial

"Equity free cash flow $278 million Leverage stood at 2.31x including Uruguay and Ecuador"

Equity free cash flow is the amount of cash a company generates that is available to pay shareholders after it pays operating costs, reinvests in the business, and handles debt-related payments and borrowings. Think of it as the household money left over after paying bills, fixing the house, and settling loans—funds that could be used for dividends, share buybacks, or retained for future needs. Investors use it to judge how much real cash a company can return to owners and to value a stock.

earn-out financial

"for a base price of $10 million (and a potential $7 million earn-out, contingent of SPA's conditions)."

An earn-out is a deal feature in mergers and acquisitions where part of the purchase price is paid later only if the acquired business meets specific future targets, such as revenue or profit goals. It matters to investors because it shares risk between buyer and seller—similar to paying for a used car only if it reaches promised mileage—affecting projected cash flows, valuation assumptions, and the likelihood of future payouts.

right-of-use assets financial

"term and is for a total annual amount of approximately $13 million (resulting in the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for $119 million)."

Right-of-use assets are the rights a company gains to use a physical space or equipment under a lease agreement. They are recorded as assets on the company's balance sheet, reflecting the value of future benefits from the leased item. For investors, these assets provide a clearer picture of a company's obligations and resources related to leasing arrangements, helping to assess its financial health and operational commitments.

lease liabilities financial

"recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for $119 million). Concurrently, the termination"

Lease liabilities are the recorded obligations a company has to make future payments for assets it uses under lease contracts, treated on the balance sheet much like a loan for rented equipment or property. Investors care because these liabilities increase a firm’s reported debt and affect measures of leverage, cash requirements and credit risk, so recognizing them gives a clearer picture of financial strength and the company’s ability to meet obligations.

call option financial

"under a Call Option Agreement signed at closing, Millicom has two 30‑day windows following"

A call option is a contract that gives its buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy a specific number of shares at a predetermined price within a set time period. Think of it as a refundable reservation to buy an item later at today’s price: you pay a fee up front and can profit if the stock rises, while your downside is limited to that fee; investors use calls to gain leverage, speculate on upside, or hedge positions without owning the shares.

Millicom Chief Executive Officer Marcelo Benitez commented:

"The fourth quarter marked another record‑setting period for Millicom and a powerful close to what has been the strongest year in our company’s history. Our strategy delivered accelerating topline momentum, with service revenue growing organically 5.2% year‑on‑year to reach an all‑time high of $1.5 billion. This performance reflects our continued disciplined execution of our commercial strategy, particularly the ongoing migration from prepaid to postpaid and our focus on driving fixed‑mobile convergence as well as the successful integration of our expanded footprint in Ecuador and Uruguay. Our operational excellence also translated into exceptional profitability. Through rigorous cost discipline and industry‑leading efficiency, we delivered our highest‑ever quarterly Adjusted EBITDA of $778 million and a record EFCF of $278 million.

These achievements capped off a landmark year for Millicom. In 2025, we generated $916 million in EFCF, surpassing our full‑year target, while maintaining leverage below 2.5x, even after the perimeter expansions in Uruguay and Ecuador. Just as importantly, we executed several major strategic milestones that further strengthened the company. We completed the Lati tower sale, for a total consideration of approximately $975 million, reached a settlement with the DOJ, and advanced a number of other legacy cleanup efforts, all of which position Millicom for greater agility and clarity moving forward.

As we look ahead, Millicom enters 2026 in its strongest position yet, both operationally and financially. Our balance sheet is more robust, our commercial strategy is delivering consistent results, and our regional footprint is generating increasing opportunities for scale and innovation. With this foundation, we have built exceptional momentum and are ready to embark on another transformative year for Millicom."

2026 Financial Targets

Millicom targets 2026 EFCF of at least $900 million and year-end leverage around 2.5x. These targets include restructuring costs of all acquired businesses.

The transaction is subject to approval by the Central Bank of Paraguay and Conacom.

Following the closings with SBA, Tigo Guatemala signed an MLA amendment for the use of ground space on January 22, 2026. This amendment has a 15-year term and is for a total annual amount of approximately $13 million (resulting in the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for $119 million).

On January 27, 2026, Millicom was awarded 100% of the EPM's remaining shares in UNE EPM Telecommunicaciones S.A.
