SUNeVision announces 2022/23 interim results 新意網公布 2022/23 年度中期業績 SmarTone announces 2022/23 interim results SmarTone Telecommunications Holdings Limited announced its interim results for the six months ended 31 December 2022. During the period under review, service revenue and service EBITDA increased 4% and 2% YoY respectively, driven by strong core local service business and reinforced by a recovery in roaming revenue, which further accelerated from the end of December. Profit attributable to equity holders increased slightly to HK$256 million from HK$251 million in the same period last year. SmarTone saw continuous growth in 5G subscriptions, supported by a modest recovery in roaming revenue as Covid restrictions were gradually relaxed in the last fewmonths of 2022. The customer base of SmarTone’s 5GHome Broadband business continued to grow strongly, together with the growth in the Enterprise Solutions portfolio, which also contributed to growth in revenue. SmarTone’s 5G provides exceptional coverage to over 99% of the city’s population. Even with the already expansive coverage, the Company continued to invest, and SmarTone’s 5G network now extends, for instance, to the new Tseung Kwan O – Lam Tin Tunnel and the Cross Bay Link. SmarTone is also one of only two operators that provides 5G coverage along Route 3, a crucial highway to the Northern Metropolis. Looking ahead, the reopening of Hong Kong and recently of China is a big boost for SmarTone’s roaming revenue, which recorded rapid uptake in January 2023. SmarTone’s roaming revenue rebounded to nearly 70% of the pre-pandemic level in January alone, and has continued to show strong growth. SmarTone also expects to continue to see positive uptake of 5G, together with healthy growth of its 5G Home Broadband business. SmarTone will continue to invest in building a world-class digital infrastructure to reinforce Hong Kong’s development as a technology hub and further supporting the city’s integration with China and the Greater Bay Area. 數碼通電訊集團有限公司公布截至 2022 年 12 月 31 日止六 個月的中期業績。於回顧期內，服務收入和服務 EBITDA 分別按年增長 4% 和 2% ，主要由於核心本地服務業務表 現強勁，以及漫遊業務收入回復增長，並自 12 月底起加速 增長。而股東應佔溢利則由去年同期的 2.51 億港元微升 至 2.56 億港元。 數碼通 5G 用戶持續上升，加上隨著政府於 2022 年最後數 月逐步放寬防疫限制措施，帶動漫遊業務收入溫和回升。 數碼通 5G 家居寬頻業務的客戶群持續擴大，而企業應用 方案業務的表現理想，亦推動收入上升。數碼通 5G 網絡 為全港超過 99% 人口提供超卓的覆蓋。儘管網絡覆蓋範 圍甚廣，數碼通仍然積極投資，將 5G 網絡擴展至例如新 落成的將軍澳 - 藍田隧道及將軍澳跨灣連接路等項目，而 數碼通亦是兩家營運商其中之一，為通往北部都會區主要 幹道的三號幹線沿線提供 5G 覆蓋。 展望未來，隨著香港和中國內地先後通關，帶動數碼通的 漫遊收入，於 2023 年一月已錄得快速增長，僅於一月份已 反彈至疫情前近 70% 的水平，並繼續呈現強勁增長。此 外，數碼通預計會有更多客戶轉用 5G 服務，而 5G 家居寬 頻服務亦會錄得理想增長。數碼通將繼續投資建設世界 級的數碼基建，以鞏固香港發展成為科技樞紐，並進一步 支持香港融入中國內地及大灣區。 SUNeVision Holdings Ltd. announced its interim results for the six months ended 31 December 2022.
