VEON reports revenue growth for 5M22 at AGM Amsterdam, 29 June 2022 - VEON Ltd. (NASDAQ: VEON, Euronext Amsterdam: VEON), a global digital operator that provides mobile connectivity and services, will disclose key financial highlights for the first five months of 2022 ( 5M22 ) at the annual general meeting of shareholders (the AGM ) being held today. VEON Group 5M22 consolidated revenue, is in positive territory, up by 1.3% in reported currency, and by 8.7% YoY in local currency terms, with six of our eight countries reporting double-digit local currency revenue growth for the period.
Group CEO Kaan Terzioglu commented: Our digital operator strategy is delivering solid results, enabled by growing 4G penetration. VEON Group's topline growth was an encouraging 8.7% YoY in local currency terms, driven by solid performance in our operations, despite the particularly challenging circumstances. Building on an expanding portfolio of services and with a constant focus on customer experience, our operations are growing their subscriber base, improving their user engagement, reducing churn, increasing their ARPU levels and gaining market share. I am proud of the work done by our teams, and would like to thank our Board and shareholders for their support.
