3-gruppen redovisar nu för första gången ett positivt kassaflöde på månadsbasis. Det framgår av huvudägaren Hutchison Whampoas halvårsrapport som presenterats i dag.
"During the period, the 3 Group?s total revenue increased by 20% to HK$28,191 million. In addition, the 3 Group achieved its cashflow target, reporting positive monthly EBITDA after all CACs (customer acquisition and retention costs) during the first half of 2007. Management expects this to be sustainable in the second half. This is an important milestone, as it means that overall the 3 Group?s total revenue from the businesses is now expected to cover both running operating costs and the costs of acquiring and retaining customers", skriver Hutchison Whampoa i sin rapport.
3-gruppen består av 3:s operatörer i Italien, Storbritannien, Irland, Australien, Sverige, Danmark, Österrike, Hong Kong och Israel.
