Financial results at 30 June 2025

Solid first-half results

• Robust retail commercial performance in France, Europe and Africa & Middle East

• 3.8% growth in EBITDAaL and 7.7% in Organic Cash Flow from telecom activities¹

• EBITDAaL growth acceleration in France at + 0.9% with a one-point improvement in EBITDAaL margin

• Full-year 2025 guidance upgraded to EBITDAaL growth above 3%

Commenting on these results, Christel Heydemann, Chief Executive Officer of the Orange group, said:

“Orange delivered a solid first half, allowing us to raise our EBITDAaL growth target for 2025.

Over this period, we achieved an EBITDAaL growth of 3.8%, with a notable acceleration of 0.9% in France, and increased organic cash flow by 7.7%. This performance is the result of our Lead the Future strategy and reflects our efforts to improve our operational efficiency.

Our commercial performance was excellent in France, Europe and Africa & Middle East. In France, our mobile networks were ranked number one for the 14^th time in a row.

I would also like to highlight our performance in Africa & Middle East, with a double-digit increase in EBITDAaL for the tenth consecutive half. This remarkable performance was driven by access to our 4G and 5G networks, now used by more than half of our 167 million customers, as well as by the development of Orange Money and B2B growth.

In Orange Business, we have launched a new division dedicated to defense and security to seize opportunities in the area of sovereignty. This will enable us to capitalize on Orange’s power of innovation, cybersecurity expertise and network quality.

I would sincerely like to thank all Orange teams for their commitment and performance during this first half.”

Orange group revenues rose slightly in the first half² (+0.3% or 67 million euros) thanks to growth in retail services (+2.1% or +312 million euros) and a smaller decline in wholesale services (-4.4% or -129 million euros). Equipment sales were in line with market trends (-5.8% or -75 million euros).

• In terms of commercial performance, the Group maintained its leadership position in convergence in France and in Europe, with a total of 9.2 million convergent customers (+1.5%), as well as its commercial momentum in mobile contracts and very high-speed fixed broadband accesses. Mobile services had 261.6 million accesses worldwide (+6.4%) including 98.1 million contracts (+7.8%). Fixed services had 38.0 million accesses worldwide (-2.2%), with 22.4 million fixed broadband accesses (+4.4%), of which 15.5 million were very high-speed broadband accesses, an area of continued strong growth (+13.3%).

• Africa & Middle East was the main contributor to growth, with revenues rising strongly (+12.8% or +469 million euros).

• Revenues in France decreased (-2.2% or -193 million euros) but retail services were stable (-0.2% or -10 million euros), with growth of 0.9% excluding PSTN³, while wholesale services declined as expected (-6.8% or -148 million).

• European revenues were stable. Retail services (excluding IT&IS) grew 1.2% (+27 million euros). IT and Integration Services grew 7.7% (+18 million euros), while low-margin revenues were down.

• The decrease in Orange Business revenues (-5.4% or -213 million euros) was mainly due to the decline in revenues from Fixed-only (-7.6% or -115 million euros) and mobile (-8.0% or -39 million euros). Good momentum continued in Orange Cyberdefense with revenues up 6.9% (+39 million euros).
  
  

Group EBITDAaL rose 4.2% in the second quarter. In the first half of 2025, it reached 5,675 million euros (+3.8% or +207 million euros). This growth was driven by the remarkable performance of Africa & Middle East (+12.8%), accelerated growth in France (+0.9%) and a solid performance in Europe (+2.2%). Orange Business continued to improve (-5.2%). EBITDAaL from telecom activities grew to 5,709 million euros (+2.9%).

The Group posted consolidated net income of 1,167 million euros for the first half of 2025, excluding a net provision of 1,272 million euros, recorded in the first semester related to the agreement on Employment and Career Path Planning for France (Gestion des Emplois et des Parcours Professionnels – GEPP) signed in February 2025 and mainly related to the 2025–2028 French part time for seniors plan. The consolidated net income, including GEPP, amounts to -105 million euros.

Net income attributable to owners of the parent company was -398 million euros. Earnings per share Group (EPS) excluding the impact of the GEPP provision net of tax amounted to 0.29 euros.

eCAPEX1 was 3,023 million euros in the first half of 2025, up 4.1%, in particular to support growth in Africa & Middle East. eCAPEX for telecom activities as a percentage of revenues was 15.2%, in line with the target for the year. The number of households connectable to FTTH1 reached 62.9 million (+9.3%) and the FTTH1 customer base increased to 14.4 million (+14.2%).

Organic cash flow from telecom activities1 reached 1,670 million euros at 30 June 2025, in line with the target of at least 3.6 billion euros by the end of 2025. The significant improvement in cash flow generation of 7.7% year on year (+119 million euros) is mainly due to the improvement in operating cash flow, driven by “EBITDAaL-eCAPEX” indicator growth and change in working capital.

Free cash flow all-in from telecom activities1 was 1,086 million euros, down 13.5% year on year due to license payment phasing.

Net financial debt amounted to 23,294 million euros, an increase of 812 million euros compared to 31 December 2024, following in particular the purchase of subordinated notes. The ratio of net financial debt to EBITDAaL from telecom activities of 1.88x at 30 June 2025 is in line with the target of approximately 2x over the medium term. The liquidity position of telecom activities of 16,160 million euros is solid and the average cost of gross debt is 3.06%.

Financial objectives

The Group is raising its full-year targets⁴:

• EBITDAaL growth of over 3%

• Discipline on eCAPEX in line with the Capital Market Day

• Organic cash flow from telecom activities of at least 3.6 billion euros

• Net debt/EBITDAaL ratio from telecom activities unchanged at around 2x in the medium term

• Orange has set in respect of the 2025 fiscal year a dividend floor of 0.75 euros per share⁵. Orange will make an interim dividend cash payment for 2025 of 0.30 euros on 4 December 2025.
  
  

Orange’s sustainability commitments

During the first half of 2025, Orange continued its initiatives to create sustainable value.

In May, Orange issued a sustainable bond of 750 million euros with a 10-year maturity.

To reduce its environmental impact:

Orange exceeded its 2025 target of reducing its Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 30% compared to 2015, reducing them by 41%.

Orange’s “Partners to net zero carbon” program, which aims to accelerate the environmental transition by co-creating significant actions with suppliers to reduce GHG emissions, saw the signing of its first progress plan with Camusat, Orange’s long-standing telecom infrastructure provider in Africa, the Middle East and Europe.

To foster digital inclusion:

The number of beneficiaries who have received free digital training since 2021 has reached 2.9 million, in line with the target.

To strengthen digital trust:

Orange Business created a division dedicated to defense and security, launched a service designed to protect its customers from quantum cyber attacks and received the SecNumCloud qualification for its Cloud Avenue SecNum platform.

Review by operating segment

France

Strong commercial performance and accelerated EBITDAaL growth

Revenues in France amounted to 8,569 million euros in the first half and 4,272 million euros in the second quarter, with retail services excluding PSTN up 0.4% (+10 million euros). Orange performed well in the second quarter, with mobile sales of+116,000, fixed broadband sales of+29,000 and convergent sales of+15,000. Convergent ARPO reached 77.9 euros, up 1.4 euros year on year. Customer satisfaction continued to improve, with the Net Promoter Score above 33 in the second quarter and a mobile churn rate of 11.4%. The growth of retail services excluding PSTN did not offset declines in wholesale services (-9.3% or -102 million euros) and equipment sales. As a result, France’s total revenues fell by 3.1% (-138 million euros).

In the first half of the year, EBITDAaL for France amounted to 2,883 million euros, up 0.9%, demonstrating the Group’s ability to optimize costs. The EBITDAaL margin improved by one- percentage point year on year.

This half-year performance confirms the Group’s ambition to achieve slightly better EBITDAaL growth in 2025, above that of 2024.

The disciplined investment policy translated to a decrease in eCAPEX of -2.1% and a stable eCAPEX to Revenues ratio of 16.5% in the first half. At 30 June 2025, 41.4 million households were connectable to Orange fiber, representing 93% of French households.

Orange confirmed its leadership in network quality, ranking first in terms of mobile network quality in metropolitan France for the 14^th time in a row⁶.

Africa & Middle East

Double-digit growth in revenues and EBITDAaL

Africa & Middle East recorded double-digit growth in revenues, rising 12.8% in the second quarter of 2025 (+238 million euros). The segment also posted remarkable revenue growth of +10.6% on a historical basis in the second quarter.

As in previous quarters, this performance was underpinned by growth in retail services (+13.6%) thanks to increases over the year from the four growth engines, namely mobile data (+19.8%), fixed broadband (+19.7%), Orange Money (+19.3%) and B2B across all activities (+11.7%), with favorable volume and value effects. The mobile customer base reached 166.7 million, a year-on-year increase of 6.9%, with double-digit growth in the 4G customer base (+20.2% year on year) and a 6.2% increase in average mobile ARPO in the second quarter. The fixed broadband customer base rose 23.1% to 4.4 million. Lastly, Orange Money had 42.8 million active customers, up 20.0%.

In the first half, EBITDAaL was up 12.8% (+179 million euros) on a comparable basis and 10.4% (+148 million euros) on a historical basis. This marks the tenth consecutive semester of double-digit growth.

This remarkable performance paved the way for increasing the EBITDAaL growth target for the Africa & Middle East segment to double-digit growth in 2025.

eCAPEX rose 14.8% in the first half, supporting the strong growth.

Europe

Revenue stabilization and solid EBITDAaL growth

Revenues for Europe in the second quarter of 2025 were stable at 1,749 million euros (+0.2% or +4 million euros). The rise in retail services (+1.0% or +13 million euros) stemmed from a strong commercial performance. Net additions amounted to +132,000 for mobile and +15,000 for fixed broadband (of which +55,000 for fiber). Convergent services (+5.3% or +19 million euros) were driven by net additions (up 26,000) and increased convergent ARPO, particularly in Poland (+4.5%). IT and Integration Services and wholesale services were stable. Low-margin equipment sales were down (-3.5% or -8 million euros).

Poland increased 1.1% revenues in the second quarter of 2025 (+8 million euros).

EBITDAaL increased 2.2% (+22 million euros), lead by strong growth in Belgium & Luxembourg (+4.7%) and Poland (+3.4%).

These good results are also consistent with the ambition to achieve low-single digit EBITDAaL growth in Europe in 2025.

Orange Business

EBITDAaL improvement target confirmed

Revenues for the second quarter of 2025 in the Orange Business segment were 1,840 million euros, down 5.9% (-116 million euros) due to the anticipated decline in Fixed-only services (-7.9% or -59 million euros) and the decrease in mobile revenues (-9.1% or -22 million euros).

Orange Cyberdefense continued to achieve strong growth (+5.8% or +16 million euros) while the competitive IT market and the reduction in the portfolio of products and services offered undertaken last year affected IT and Integration Services (-3.6% or -35 million euros).

This quarter, to strengthen its commitment in the sovereignty space, Orange Business created a new division dedicated to defense and security to meet the needs of ministries, operators and industrial players in these sectors. Orange Business also launched a service designed to protect its customers from quantum cyberattacks and announced the SecNumCloud qualification for its Cloud Avenue SecNum platform, as well as the acquisition of ensec in Switzerland to enrich Orange Cyberdefense activities.

Orange Business is actively working to optimize its cost base and transform its IT products and services. In April 2025, Orange Business and Shiftmove announced that they had signed an exclusivity agreement for Shiftmove’s acquisition of Orange Business’s Océan (fleet management) business. Orange Business is thus pursuing its strategy of refocusing its business portfolio and optimizing investments on its strategic priorities.

The improvement in the EBITDAaL trend in the first half (-5.2%) was in line with the objective.

Orange Business maintains this ambition of continued improvement in the trend in 2025, by halving the decline in EBITDAaL compared with 2024, to achieve stabilization in 2026.

TOTEM

Second-quarter revenues for the TowerCo TOTEM were 184 million euros, up 5.5% (+10 million euros).

The number of sites was 26,794 at 30 June 2025, with a tenancy ratio of 1.44 co-tenants per site, up 3 points year on year and in line with the target of 1.5 co-tenants per site by 2026.

In the first half, EBITDAaL decreased slightly by 1.4% (-3 million euros) due to less non-recurring planning and construction activity. Recurring EBITDAaL from hosting was up 1.2% over the period.

International Carriers & Shared Services

Revenues from International Carriers and Shared Services fell by 5.0% in the second quarter (-16 million euros), mainly as a result of the downward trend in voice and SMS traffic.

Over the first half, EBITDAaL fell by 52 million euros, due to various exceptional items.

Mobile Financial Services

The plan to cease Orange Bank’s activities in Europe is proceeding as expected. Following the disposal of its loan portfolios in France and Spain in 2024, Orange Bank sold most of its investment portfolios (not yet matured) during the first half of 2025 for a total of 171 million euros.

Furthermore, in May 2025, Orange announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding for the acquisition by Crédit Coopératif of Orange Bank’s subsidiary Anytime, a digital platform for account management and payment services aimed at professionals and associations.

MASORANGE⁷

In Spain, second quarter revenues rose 6.8%, driven by growth in retail services of 2.4%, growth in wholesale services of 8.6% and equipment sales of 35.4%.

The joint venture achieved a very good commercial performance with +30,000 additional fiber lines and +23,000⁸ additional mobile lines.

EBITDAaL had double-digit growth (+12.9%).

This half, MASORANGE confirmed its ambition to achieve synergies of at least 500 million euros over the first four years.

In 2025, MASORANGE is targeting synergies of more than 300 million euros, representing more than half of the expected synergies, slight revenue growth and double-digit growth in adjusted EBITDA minus net recurring CAPEX.

The transaction to create the FiberCo, provided for in the binding agreement signed on 2 January 2025 between MASORANGE and Vodafone España is expected to be completed at the end of the summer of 2025.
