Millicom Chief Executive Officer Marcelo Benitez commented:

"Millicom has undergone an important transformation aimed at significantly increasing the company's equity free cash flow generation. These efforts began to pay off in Q2, with EBITDA up almost 20% organically, EFCF of $268 million and leverage down significantly to 2.77x, putting the company on track to achieve its 2024 targets.

Meanwhile, we are streamlining our product offerings and internal processes, which is enhancing productivity and generating cost savings beyond the initial targets of the efficiency project Everest. Additionally, we are prioritizing ARPU growth in Mobile, reducing churn in Home, and accelerating growth in B2B. We are also making return-focused investments to sustain our market leadership and drive customer growth in the second half of 2024. All these actions are designed to ensure continued EFCF growth in 2025 and beyond, in line with our long-term plan.

As we wrap up my initial quarter as CEO, I want to express my gratitude to the entire Millicom team for their tremendous energy and dedication, even amid significant challenges and uncertainties. Together, we are transforming into a more agile and efficient platform to fulfill our mission of building digital highways that connect people, improve lives, and develop our communities.”

2024 Financial Targets

Millicom targets equity-free cash flow above $600 million in 2024, excluding proceeds for the previously-announced tower sale in Colombia. Millicom also targets leverage to near 2.5x at year-end 2024. Excluded from both targets are cash proceeds and related taxes stemming from any potential future tower transaction.
