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

These results clearly demonstrate the successful execution of our Lead the Future strategic plan. Group revenue and EBITDAaL growth, in line with objectives, was rooted in outstanding operational achievements, strong commercial momentum across all geographies and continued discipline on cost control. The creation of MASORANGE in Spain, the successful connectivity of the Paris Olympic Games and the roll-out of Max-It in Africa are concrete examples recognized by all.

2024 marked a return to EBITDAaL growth in France where our excellent network and service quality allowed us to maintain our leadership position.

The Africa & Middle East region once again delivered a robust performance, driven by its growth engines, namely mobile data, fixed broadband, B2B and Orange Money. Orange now has over 160 million mobile customers and almost 40 million Orange Money customers on the continent. Orange’s activities are a genuine lever for economic development in these countries – progress from which the Group also benefits.
