—Capex for the quarter was equivalent to 23.9% of the company’s revenue, compared to Capex equivalent of 40.3% of revenue a year ago—

 —EBITDA balance, less Capex and interest, reached a record level of Ps. 926 million in the period—

MEXICO CITY, July 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Total Play Telecomunicaciones, S.A.P.I. de C.V. (“Total Play”), a leading telecommunications company in Mexico, which offers internet access, pay television and telephony services, through one of the largest 100% fiber optic networks in the country, announced today financial results for the second quarter of 2024.

“Total Play’s firm subscriber base moderation strategy, strict financial discipline, and initiatives that strengthen our operational efficiency, significantly boosted profitability and cash generation this quarter. EBITDA grew double-digit, reaching a record level of Ps.5,096 million, while EBITDA margin increased by two percentage points to 46%,” commented Eduardo Kuri, CEO of Total Play. “Capex for the quarter was Ps.2,668 million, equivalent to 23.9% of the company’s revenue. This, along with increasing profitability, significantly improved our cash generation — defined as EBITDA less Capex and interest paid — to the highest level in Total Play’s history.”

“On the balance sheet, the solid growth in cash flow significantly boosted our liquidity. Additionally, we amortized bank loans and Cebures equivalent to Ps. 2,182 million in the period, which contributed to reducing the balance of short-term debt with cost by 30% and to further strengthen Total Play’s capital structure,” added Mr. Kuri.

Second quarter results 

Revenue for the quarter was Ps.11,150 million, 13% above the Ps.9,867 million for the same period of the previous year. Total costs and expenses were Ps.6,054 million, compared to Ps.5,490 million of the previous year.

As a result, Total Play’s EBITDA grew 16% to Ps. 5,096 million, up from Ps. 4,377 million a year ago. The EBITDA margin for the quarter was 46%, compared to 44% in the same quarter of 2023. The company recorded operating income of Ps. 889 million, compared to Ps. 300 million a year ago.

Total Play reported net loss of Ps.3,733 million, from a loss of Ps.310 million in the same quarter of 2023.

Service revenue

The company’s revenue grew 13%, as a result of an 8% increase in sales in the residential segment and a 45% increase in revenues from the enterprise business.

Totalplay Residencial’s revenue growth to Ps. 9,196 million, compared to Ps. 8,521 million a year earlier, relates to a 9% increase in the number of subscribers to the company’s services, compared to the same quarter a year ago, to reach 5,009,091 this period, including 69,001 small and medium-sized businesses. The company considers that the number of users reached this quarter reflects its remarkable capacity to offer technologically advanced internet services — with superior stability and speed — continuous innovation in its entertainment platform, and an excellent service.

Compared to the previous quarter, the number of net additions grew by 101,702 users, in line with Total Play’s strategy of moderating its subscriber base growth.

Average revenue per subscriber (ARPU) for the quarter was Ps.612, compared to Ps.615 a year ago.

As previously announced, the company’s geographic coverage investment program was completed during the first quarter of 2023. Accordingly, the number of homes passed in Mexico at the end of this period was 17,590,606, a figure with minor variations compared to 17,503,742 a year ago.

Penetration — the proportion of homes passed by Total Play that have the company’s telecommunications services — was 28.5% at the end of the quarter, up from 26.2% a year ago.

The enterprise segment’s revenue was Ps.1,954 million, up from Ps.1,346 million in the previous year, due to the launch of various organizations´ projects in recent months.

Costs and expenses

Total costs and expenses increased 10%, as a result of a 15% increase in service costs and an 8% increase in general expenses.

The increase in costs to Ps. 2,187 million from Ps. 1,902 million in the previous year is primarily due to higher costs associated with business projects, links, and memberships. This increase was partially offset by lower content and licensing costs.

The increase in expenses to Ps. 3,867 million, from Ps. 3,588 million, reflects higher maintenance and fees expenses, in the context of the company’s growing operations. This increase was partially offset by reductions in advertising and personnel expenses, resulting from strategies that generate solid operating efficiencies.

EBITDA and net result

Total Play’s EBITDA was Ps.5,096 million, 16% higher compared to Ps.4,377 million of the previous year.

Relevant variations below EBITDA were the following:

An increase of Ps.130 million in depreciation and amortization mainly due to user acquisition costs, including telecommunications equipment, labor, and installation expenses.

An increase of Ps.582 million in changes in the fair value of financial instruments, largely due to the recording of the remaining expenses associated with the issuance of the company’s Senior Notes due in 2025, as a result of the 90% exchange of these notes with the new Senior Notes with final maturity in 2028, as previously announced.

An increase of Ps.209 million in interest expense consistent with the financial debt balance variation, attributable to the exchange rate depreciation effect on dollar-denominated debt this quarter, as well as higher debt costs.

A foreign exchange loss of Ps. 2,473 million this period, compared to a gain of Ps. 1,619 million a year ago, resulted from a net liability monetary position in foreign currency and the depreciation of the peso against the basket of currencies in which the company’s monetary liabilities are denominated this quarter. This contrasts with the exchange rate appreciation experienced in the previous year.

Total Play reported a net loss of Ps.3,733 million, compared to a loss of Ps.310 million in the same period of 2023.

Balance sheet

As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s debt with cost was Ps.52,919 million, compared to Ps.47,684 million in the previous year. The increase shows the effect of exchange rate depreciation on dollar-denominated debt.

Lease liabilities were Ps.5,210 million, 24% lower compared to Ps.6,868 million of the previous year.

Cash and cash equivalents, plus restricted cash held in trusts, totaled Ps. 5,225 million, a 23% increase from Ps. 4,249 million a year ago. Consequently, the company’s net debt was Ps. 52,904 million, compared to Ps. 50,303 million a year ago.

The debt ratio — Net Debt / EBITDA for the last two annualized quarters — was 2.62 times, as a result of solid EBITDA growth, together with greater relative stability of the net debt balance.

Consistent with the strategy to extend Total Play’s debt profile — in line with the company’s cash generation — the balance of short-term debt with cost was reduced by 30% to Ps.4,212 million, from Ps.5,994 million a year ago.

Total Play’s fixed assets — including accumulated investments in fiber optics, telecommunications equipment, subscriber acquisition costs, and other assets — was Ps.61,775 million, compared to Ps. 59,912 million a year ago.

Six months results

Revenue for the first six months of 2024 was Ps.22,237 million, 13% higher from Ps.19,694 million the previous year. This growth was driven by a 37% increase in enterprise revenues and a 9% growth in residential revenues. Total costs and expenses rose 12% to Ps.12,154 million from Ps.10,883 million, due to a 10% increase in general expenses and a 15% increase in service costs.

Total Play reported EBITDA of Ps.10,083 million, a 14% increase from Ps.8,811 million the previous year. The EBITDA margin for the period was 45%. Operating income reached Ps.1,724 million, up from Ps.892 million in the same period of 2023.

The company recorded a net loss of Ps.4,897 million, compared to a profit of Ps.6 million a year ago.

Jack Henry’s Annual Survey of Financial Institutions Highlights Priorities Amid Economic Uncertainty and a New Hybrid Monetary Era

Banks and credit unions plan to increase technology spending, led by investments in AI, digital banking, and data analytics

MONETT, Mo., April 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Banks and credit unions are prioritizing operational efficiency, deposit growth, and new payment capabilities as they navigate economic uncertainty and increasing technological complexity, according to findings from Jack Henry’s eighth annual Strategy Benchmark.

Jack Henry® (Nasdaq: JKHY) surveyed 193 executives from financial institutions using Jack Henry solutions. The survey highlights the industry’s most pressing strategic priorities, top concerns, and technology investment plans for the next two years.

“Banks and credit unions have finally recognized their biggest competitive threat in Big Fintech and Big Crypto,” says Lee Wetherington, Senior Director of Corporate Strategy and lead author of the benchmark. “As we enter a new hybrid monetary era, the game is changing and charter franchises are under attack. The goal of strategy is no longer simply to win but to ensure you’re competing to win the right game.”

The vast majority of financial institutions plan to increase technology spending, with 88% expecting to raise their tech budgets over the next two years, up from 76% last year. Four in 10 institutions (41%) plan increases of 6% to 10%, compared with 33% a year ago. Artificial intelligence (48%) is the top planned technology investment for the first time, followed by digital banking (38%) and data analytics (32%). While banks remain focused on growing deposits (64%) as their top strategic priority in 2026-2027, credit unions (40%) continue to place outsized emphasis on acquiring younger accountholders (Gen Z/Alpha).

“Financial institutions are in a high-stakes race for Gen Z and small business,” says Jennifer Geis, Senior Strategic Advisor of Corporate Strategy at Jack Henry and Managing Editor of the study. “Given Gen Z now drives most small-business formation—and given small-business deposits are 4-5X larger than retail—understanding and meeting the unique needs of “bizumers” is key to growth, whether you frame it in terms of deposits or demographics.”

Among the highlights from the survey:

PaymentsMore than nine out of 10 CEOs (94%) plan to add new payment services within the next two years, yet only 36% have a formal payments strategy in place.More than four out of five (82%) financial institutions plan to incorporate tap-to-pay as part of their strategy to add younger accountholders.Nearly half (47%) of CEOs plan to embed payments into their digital banking experience over the next two years.Small Business FocusThree out of four CEOs say they plan to expand services for small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs).The most common planned addition is payment services, including FedNow®, request for payment, and tap-to-pay. 
 Cryptocurrency18% of CEOs plan to support stablecoins, tokenized money, and/or cryptocurrency by the end of 2027. This includes:Tokenized deposits/deposit tokensSupport for on-chain wallets for accountholdersAbility to orchestrate, exchange, and settle dollars to and from stablecoins/crypto.However, only 3% of CEOs report having a formal stablecoin strategy in place.
 Getting YoungerThe second most important strategic priority for credit unions (and fourth overall) is adding younger accountholders. It is also one of the top three concerns for CEOs.More than 40% of credit unions have a formal strategy, compared to just 10% of banks.Fintechs and neobanks are considered the biggest competitive threat in this area.Data analytics and AILeveraging data is the 5th most important strategic priority overall among banks and credit unionsPlans to implement AI grew double digits compared to last year1/3 of FIs plan to embed data collection/analysis tools within digital banking
