Net revenue expanded by +6.2% YoY, driven by the strong performance of postpaid (+10.3% YoY) and fiber (+10.6% YoY) revenues. Postpaid’s performance is supported by the increase in the customer base (+7.7% YoY), that ended the quarter with 67.4 million accesses due to significant migrations and the acquisition of new customers. Additionally, the impact of annual price adjustments contributed to the +2.0% YoY increase in postpaid ARPU, excluding M2M and dongles, reaching R$52.2.
Fixed revenue increased +6.2% YoY, supported by strong growth in FTTH (+10.6% YoY) and Corporate Data, ICT, and Digital Services revenues (+15.8% YoY) in 1Q25. Our FTTH network reached 29.6 million homes passed (+10.5% YoY), with 7.2 million homes connected (+12.9% YoY).
EBITDA grew by +8.1% YoY, with a margin of 39.6%, an increase of +0.7 p.p. in the annual comparison. EBITDA AL also expanded by +8.1% YoY, with a margin of 30.4% (+0.5 p.p. YoY).
In 1Q25, Capex totaled R$1,869 million, a decrease of -0.3% YoY, representing 13.0% of revenues (-0.9 p.p. YoY), reflecting the reduction in Capex intensity over net revenue. Investments were directed towards strengthening our 5G network, which is already present in 519 cities (+2.9x YoY), covering 62% of the Brazilian population, and expanding our fiber operation.
Operating Cash Flow totaled R$3,835 million (+12.7% YoY), with a margin of 26.7% (+1.5 p.p. YoY) over net revenue.
