Exhibit 99.1

 

 

Kyivstar reports 20% top-line and EBITDA growth as digital rises to 12% of revenues

 

10 November 2025. KYIV, Ukraine

 

Kyivstar Group Ltd (“Kyivstar”, the “Group”) 3Q25 unaudited results highlights

 

Total revenue grew 20.9% YoY to UAH 12.3 bn (+19.8% to USD 297 mn).

 

EBITDA grew 21.5% YoY to UAH 7.1 bn (20.4% to USD 171 mn).

 

Adjusted net profit was USD 73 mn. This metric excludes the non-cash charge of USD 162 mn recognized in 3Q25 related to the Kyivstar listing. Without adjustments, loss for 3Q25 was USD 89 mn.

 

Direct digital revenue grew to 11.9% of total thanks to a 531% surge to UAH 1.5 bn (+526% to USD 35 mn), driven in turn by consolidation of Uklon.

 

Multiplay users expanded 24.8% YoY to 6.6 mn, digital MAUs 49.4% to 13.5 mn.

 

Cash position of USD 472 mn highlights Kyivstar’s fortress balance sheet, supported by LTM equity free cash flow of USD 373 mn.

 

10 November 2025. KYIV, Ukraine – Kyivstar Group Ltd (Nasdaq: KYIV), Ukraine’s leading digital operator, today announces selected unaudited financial and operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.

 

Kyivstar sustained strong momentum into 3Q25, delivering 20.9% total revenue growth to UAH 12.3 bn (19.8% to USD 297 mn). The performance demonstrates the Group’s disciplined pricing and ability to capture a growing share of consumer spending. Mobile ARPU climbed 14.0% YoY to UAH 153.1 (USD 3.7).

 

EBITDA rose 21.5% YoY to UAH 7.1 bn (20.4% to USD 171 mn), with the EBITDA margin at 57.6% for the quarter. Continued strong profitability reflects disciplined cost management amid revenue growth and the execution of Kyivstar’s digital strategy.

 

Direct digital revenue grew 531% to UAH 1,464 mn (526% to USD 35 mn), reaching 11.9% of total revenue and supported by the acquisition of Uklon in April. Kyivstar’s multiplay strategy pushed customer engagement and blended ARPU higher, as users who combine connectivity with at least one digital service rose 24.8% YoY to 6.6 mn, now representing 31.7% of one-month-active mobile customers. Our expanding digital platforms are transforming Kyivstar into a model digital ecosystem ever more embedded in customers’ everyday lives.

 

The integration of Uklon (consolidated effective April) contributed substantially with USD 24.7 mn in revenue, USD 9.1 mn in EBITDA and USD 6.7 mn in profit for the quarter. The platform recorded strong growth in trip volumes, average fare per ride and digital engagement, strengthening Kyivstar’s foothold in everyday mobility.

 

The Group steadily advanced on its strategic priorities during the quarter. Kyivstar commenced trading on the NASDAQ on August 15, becoming the first Ukrainian company to list on a US stock exchange. The Group also conducted Ukraine’s first Starlink Direct to Cell network test ahead of service launch in late 4Q25, while progress continues on developing Ukraine’s first national large language model (“LLM”) in partnership with Ukraine’s Ministry of Digital Transformation.

 

Kyivstar expects revenue growth of 24% to 27% YoY, and EBITDA growth of 23% to 26% YoY, in UAH terms, for the full year. In USD terms, the Group expects revenue growth of 20% to 23% YoY and EBITDA growth of 19% to 22% YoY for 2025, assuming current FX rates. Capex intensity for 2025 is expected in the 30% to 33% range.

 

Commenting on the results, CEO Oleksandr Komarov said:

 

“Anchored by Kyivstar’s resilient, market-leading telecom franchise, we are scaling a strong digital ecosystem. Digital services now contribute nearly 12% of revenues, and our ~20% growth in revenue and EBITDA highlights the growing role of our digital portfolio in Ukrainians’ daily lives. This momentum is supported by our robust mobile and fixed-line businesses, where competitive pricing and reliable service sustain our market leadership.

 

“Looking ahead, we are committed to shaping Ukraine’s digital future, from advancing AI and cloud to expanding how customers connect. Our upcoming nationwide Direct to Cell launch is another key milestone. As the first Ukrainian company to list on a US exchange, we look forward to sharing Kyivstar’s compelling investment opportunity.”

Kyiv, November 10, 2025 – Kyivstar Group Ltd. (“Kyivstar” or the “Group”), Ukraine’s leading digital operator, today announces selected unaudited financial and operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.

 

Ø Total revenue increased 19.8% YoY to USD 297 mn (UAH 12.3 bn, +20.9%). This was driven by strong revenue generation across the mobile subscriber base, the Uklon acquisition, and healthy growth across all digital platforms.

 

Ø Telecom revenue rose 8.0% YoY to USD 262 mn (UAH 10.9 bn, +9.0%). Growth was driven by continued ARPU expansion in sync with higher penetration of digital services.

 

Direct digital revenue increased 525.9% YoY to USD 35 mn (UAH 1.5 bn, +531.3%) on the back of Uklon, our ride-hailing platform (consolidated effective April 2025) and comprised 11.9% of total revenue for 3Q25. Uklon contributed USD 24.7 mn (UAH 1.03 bn) in revenue in 3Q25.

Ø The Group recorded a net loss of USD 89 mn for 3Q25, with loss per share of USD 0.41. However, the headline loss reflects a one-time, non-cash charge of $162 mn recognized in 3Q25 related to the Kyivstar listing. Excluding the impact of this non-cash charge, Adjusted Net Profit for 3Q25 was USD 73 mn, -11.0% YoY (UAH 3.0 bn, -10.1%) and Adjusted EPS for the period was USD 0.33, -16.0% YoY.

 

Ø Kyivstar served 22.5 mn mobile customers and 1.2 mn fixed internet customers as of September 30, 2025. Mobile ARPU increased +13.0% YoY to USD 3.7 (UAH 153.1, +14.0%).

 

Ø Multiplay users reached 6.6 mn (+24.8% YoY) and represented 31.7% of one-month-active mobile customers. Uklon recorded 42.2 mn rides and 1.2 mn deliveries in 3Q25, helping lift the Group’s total digital MAUs (Uklon, MyKyivstar, Kyivstar TV and Helsi) to 13.5 mn (+49.4% YoY).

 

Ø Capital expenditures for 3Q25 totaled USD 89 mn (UAH 3.7 bn), implying LTM capex intensity of 29.1%.

 

Ø Kyivstar maintains a strong balance sheet with USD 472 mn of cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2025.

 

Ø Advanced the Group’s strategic priorities: (i) historic Nasdaq listing as the first Ukrainian company to trade on a US stock exchange; (ii) launching nationwide Starlink Direct to Cell coverage subsequent to regulatory approvals; and (iii) developing Ukraine’s first national large language model (“LLM”) in partnership with Ukraine’s Ministry of Digital Transformation.

 

Ø For 2025, Kyivstar expects to deliver revenue growth of 24%-27% and EBITDA growth of 23%-26% YoY in UAH terms. In USD terms, and assuming current FX rates, revenue is expected to grow 20%-23% and EBITDA by 19%-22%. Capex intensity for 2025 is expected within 30%–33% of revenue.

3Q25 GROUP PERFORMANCE

 

In the third quarter of 2025, Kyivstar delivered revenue growth of 20.9% YoY to UAH 12.3 bn, underscoring the Group’s ability to capture a growing share of consumer spending. Performance was driven by continued improvements in ARPU growth, rising engagement across digital platforms, and the transition to a new value-sharing model of the TV partnership into a platform-rental agreement, enhancing Kyivstar’s customer-facing role.

 

REVENUE BREAKDOWN

 

        UAH     USD  
Revenue       3Q25     3Q24     YoY     3Q25     3Q24     YoY  
Total, of which:   mn     12,332       10,203       20.9 %     297       248       19.8 %
Mobile   mn     10,285       9,354       10.0 %     248       227       9.0 %

Digital   mn     1,464       232       531.3 %     35       6       525.9 %

  

Telecom revenue grew 9.0% YoY to reach UAH 10.9 bn in 3Q25, driven by continued ARPU expansion supported by disciplined pricing adjustments, rising mobile data consumption, and continuing migration of users to 4G networks. The Group’s sustained network investments and distinctive digital ecosystem continue to underpin strong subscriber engagement and operational resilience, even amid the ongoing war-related disruptions.

 

Direct digital revenue soared more than fivefold to reach UAH 1.5 bn in 3Q25, now accounting for 11.9% of total revenue. Growth was driven by the acquisition of Uklon, continued momentum across Helsi’s digital healthcare platform, rising demand for enterprise solutions such as big data services, and an expanding digital subscriber base.

 

TELECOM REVENUE, ARPU CLIMB ON 4G MIGRATION AND MULTIPLAY

 

Mobile revenue growth remained strong during the quarter thanks to further deepening of customer engagement and continued positive momentum across key metrics.

 

Kyivstar maintains its leadership in the Ukrainian telecom market, with 22.5 mn mobile subscribers as of September 30, 2025. The broadband business continued to gain momentum, adding 32.6 thousand subscribers over the past 12 months. As of the date of this release, the Group has 43,722 buildings (owned and leased) connected to fiber across Ukraine, reflecting its expanding high-speed network footprint and strong execution in fixed connectivity.

 

Ongoing 4G migration: The 4G user base grew 2.4% YoY to 15 mn, 4G penetration rising 3.9 pp to 66.5% of the mobile user base. Transition to 4G dovetails with the ongoing expansion of multiplay users.

 

Mobile ARPU for 3Q25 rose 14.0% to UAH 153.1 (USD 3.7). Our high network reliability, diverse and integrated service offering, and multi-service bundles foster customer loyalty.

Through our multiplay strategy, we aim to consistently increase our multiplay subscriber rate (defined as users that have purchased (i) voice, (ii) 4G data plans, and (iii) at least one digital application, for example Helsi, Kyivstar TV, Uklon or MyKyivstar) by cross-selling our products and services. Our customers can select these digital services, which we call “superpowers,” as add-ons to their paid plans. We have seen a consistent upward trend in ARPU on the back of an increase in multiplay customers who also typically exhibit lower churn rates. Multiplay customers grew 24.8% YoY to 6.6 mn as of September 30, 2025, now representing 31.7% of the total one-month active user base. Multiplay revenue increased 44.5% YoY in UAH terms (43.2% YoY in USD).

 

DIRECT DIGITAL SERVICES FUEL GROWTH

 

Kyivstar’s digital platforms continued to scale rapidly in the third quarter. Total digital monthly active users reached 13.5 mn (+49.4% YoY), reflecting both organic adoption and the consolidation of Uklon. The growing user base spans health, mobility and entertainment services, providing the Group with daily, high-frequency touchpoints, in addition to traditional telecom interactions. The breadth of engagement across these platforms is turning Kyivstar into the provider of a digital ecosystem, embedding the Group deeper into its customers’ everyday lives.

Kyivstar TV

 

Kyivstar TV recorded 2.1 mn MAUs (+31.7% YoY), driven by exclusive sports rights, Ukrainian-language content, and the inclusion of new devices (e.g. Xbox, Smart TVs, PCs). Provided both as a mobile OTT internet application and a fixed/IPTV broadband service, Kyivstar TV is the largest media streaming service in Ukraine by number of users. As of September 30, 2025, 34.4% of our broadband customers were also digital TV users. The service’s role in users’ entertainment choices continues to expand, with user sessions rising 30.7% YoY in 3Q25 to 670 mn and the number of minutes watched daily by active OTT users having climbed 21.1% YoY to 244 mn.

Helsi

 

Helsi is Ukraine’s leading health-tech platform, recording 2.5 mn MAUs (+5.6% YoY) as of 3Q25. Growth was supported by the launch of new family and individual medical care subscription plans, as well as the expansion of enterprise contracts with hospitals and other corporates. Helsi has added new services to its subscription model, such as analysis and telemedical consultations, and launched “Helsi Superpower” for Kyivstar users in September.

 

Helsi is deeply embedded in Ukraine’s eHealth ecosystem, which powers appointment scheduling, prescriptions, and health records management. This integration creates high switching costs and makes Helsi indispensable for both patients and providers. It also demonstrates Kyivstar’s dedication to ESG matters, as access to high-quality, digital healthcare is a national priority during wartime.

 

As of September 30, 2025, Kyivstar had approximately 29 mn registered patients who were able to access more than 1,600 public and private clinics and over 38,000 medical professionals.

 

CAPITAL EXPENDITURE

 

Capex for 3Q25 was UAH 3.7 bn (USD 89 mn) with an LTM capex intensity of 29.1%. Kyivstar maintained high investment levels while generating strong free cash flow, underscoring the Group’s commitment to investments that fulfill license requirements and sustain network quality and resilience amid the war.

 

Capex focus: Continued reinvestment in network resilience, further fiber rollout and energy security. Network modernization, regulatory compliance measures, and power-saving feature installations are key drivers of YoY investment growth, ensuring high quality standards for customers.

 

Energy resilience: Kyivstar’s network sites are now equipped with backup batteries, inverters and solar power, reducing vulnerability to grid instability in line with contemporary legislation requirements. Kyivstar will continue to comply on this matter, inclusive of any new regulatory requirements that may come into force going forward. As of September, the Group had funded the installation of approximately 3,560 generators (stationary diesel generators, mobile diesel generator and third-party stationary diesel generators) and approximately 241,000 additional batteries for backup capacity and improved network resilience.

STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENTS

 

On August 14, 2025, VEON Ltd., a global digital operator and then parent company of Ukraine’s leading digital operator JSC Kyivstar, and Cohen Circle Acquisition Corp. (“Cohen Circle”), a special purpose acquisition company, announced the closing of the business combination that resulted in the listing of Kyivstar on Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) following the receipt of approval from Cohen Circle shareholders at the extraordinary general meeting held on August 12, 2025. As a result of the closing of the business combination, Kyivstar began trading its shares and warrants on the Nasdaq on August 15, 2025 under the ticker symbols “KYIV” and “KYIVW”, respectively, thereby becoming the first and only Ukrainian company listed on a US stock exchange. VEON held an 89.6% stake in Kyivstar as of the closing of the business combination.

 

On August 12, 2025, Kyivstar successfully conducted a test of satellite and terrestrial network integration using Starlink Direct to Cell technology. This is the first field test of Starlink Direct to Cell in eastern Europe. During the pilot in the Zhytomyr region, Kyivstar President and JSC Kyivstar CEO Oleksandr Komarov and Ukraine’s Minister of Digital Transformation, Mykhailo Fedorov, exchanged messages directly via Starlink Direct to Cell satellite service using regular 4G-enabled smartphones. The successful exchange confirmed the technology’s viability for Ukraine. Launch of first commercial services is due in December.

 

Kyivstar continues to advance its large language model (“LLM”) project in partnership with Ukraine’s Ministry of Digital Transformation and the WINWIN AI Centre of Excellence. In 3Q25, we established the project’s strategy, accelerating hiring, and established a legal framework for transferring datasets. This joint project aims to develop Ukraine’s first LLM trained deliberately on Ukrainian-language data. The cooperation memorandum builds on VEON’s and Kyivstar’s pledge to invest USD 1 bn to rebuild Ukraine’s digital infrastructure over 2023-2027. In addition to capturing the full range of Ukrainian dialects, terminology, history, and cultural context, the project is designed to ensure that sensitive national data is securely stored and processed within Ukraine, a critical requirement for sectors such as government, defense, healthcare, and financial services. The LLM will also serve as the foundation for AI-powered products and services, including legal and regulatory analysis tools, as well as specialized AI applications across both public and private sectors and in fields including education, finance, and health. The model is expected to deliver more accurate, relevant, and actionable insights for Ukrainian users than general-purpose global models. The first version of the Ukrainian LLM is scheduled for release by December 2025.

Earnings Release
3Q25
 

 

Operating (loss) / profit was impacted by non-cash charge of USD 162 mn associated with the Kyivstar listing. This expense represents a one-time, non-cash compensation for a stock exchange listing service equal to the excess of the fair value of the shares transferred compared to the fair value of the net assets received.

 

Net finance costs amounted to USD 16 mn, an increase primarily due to lower deposit income following the redemption of USD-denominated Ukrainian sovereign bonds.

 

Other non-operating (loss) / gain, net was USD 6 mn, an increase of USD 5 mn YoY. This increase was mainly driven by the fair value revaluation impact related to outstanding warrants. Under IFRS, these warrants are measured at fair value through profit or loss and revalued at each reporting period end. The valuation is based on the market price of the warrant at the reporting date, which may result in non-cash gains or losses in the income statement from one period to the next. However, these fluctuations have no impact on cash flows or the company’s underlying operating performance.

 

Net foreign exchange (loss) / gain, was USD 1 million, representing a USD 15 million change from 3Q24. The decline was largely attributable to foreign exchange gains recognized on the revaluation of USD-denominated bonds in 3Q24 which were subsequently redeemed.

 

Adjusted Net Profit for the period, which adjusts for the $162 mn listing expense, was down 11% YoY due to the factors discussed above as well as higher SG&A expenses, offsetting the $49m increase in revenue, 3Q25 loss for the period was USD 89 mn.

 

The basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) are the same because the warrant exercise price exceeded the average market price of the shares during the reporting period, rendering the outstanding warrants out of the money. Accordingly, shares issuable upon warrant exercise are excluded from the diluted share count, resulting in identical basic and diluted shares outstanding and, therefore, identical basic and diluted EPS.

ATTACHMENT D: DEFINITIONS

 

4G users are mobile customers who have engaged in revenue-generating activity during the three months prior to the measurement date as a result of activities over fourth-generation (4G or LTE – long term evolution) network technologies.

 

Adjusted Net Profit is profit / (loss) for the period, excluding the impact of the one-time, non-cash charge of USD 162 mn recognized in 3Q25 related to the Kyivstar listing.

 

ARPU (average revenue per user) measures the monthly average revenue per mobile user. We generally calculate ARPU by dividing our mobile and digital service revenue during the relevant period (including data revenue, roaming revenue, MFS and interconnect revenue, but excluding revenue from connection fees, sales of handsets and accessories and other non-service revenue, but excluding revenue from fixed IPTV) by the average number of our mobile customers during the period and the number of months in that period.

 

Capital expenditures (capex) are purchases of property and equipment, new construction, upgrades, software, other long-lived assets and related reasonable costs incurred prior to the intended use of the non-current asset, accounted at the earliest event of advance payment or delivery. Purchases of licenses and capitalized leases are not included in capital expenditures.

 

Capex intensity is a ratio, which is calculated as last-twelve-month (LTM) capex divided by LTM total revenue.

 

Direct digital revenues include revenues from Kyivstar Group Ltd.’s proprietary digital platforms and services.

 

Doubleplay 4G customers are mobile customers who engaged in usage of our voice and data services over 4G (LTE) technology at any time during the one month prior to such measurement date.

 

EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure and is called Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of the results as reported under IFRS We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as profit/(loss) for the period, before income taxes, depreciation, amortization, loss from disposal of non-current assets and impairment loss, financial expenses and costs, net foreign exchange gain/(loss), share of profit/(loss) of associates and joint ventures, and listing expense, which is also excluded from the calculation.

 

EBITDA margin is calculated as EBITDA (as defined above) divided by total revenue, expressed as a percentage.

 

Equity free cash flow is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as free cash flow from operating activities and proceeds from sale of business, less cash flow used in investing activities, excluding license payments, lease payments, cash outflows for business acquisitions, inflow/outflow of deposits, and financial assets, cash inflows from sale of business and proceeds from share issuance.

 

Gross debt is calculated as the sum of long-term notional debt and short-term notional debt, including capitalized leases.

 

Mobile customers (also - mobile subscribers) are generally customers in the registered customer base at a given measurement date who engaged in a mobile revenue generating activity at any time during the three months prior to such measurement date. Such activity includes any outgoing calls, customer fee accruals, debits related to service, outgoing SMS and MMS, data transmission and receipt sessions, but does not include incoming calls, SMS and MMS or abandoned calls. Our total number of mobile customers also includes customers using mobile internet service via USB modems and fixed-mobile convergence (“FMC”).

 

Multiplay customers are Doubleplay 4G customers who also engaged in usage of one or more of our digital products at any time during the one month prior to such measurement date. Effective 1Q25, 4G usage below the 100Mb threshold is included in Multiplay and Double Play 4G user count (excluded prior to 1Q25).

 

Net debt / (cash) is a non-IFRS financial measure and is calculated as the sum of interest-bearing long-term debt, including capitalized leases (unless specifically excluded) and short-term notional debt minus cash and cash equivalents and deposits, long-term and short-term deposits. We believe that net debt / (cash) provides useful information to investors because it shows the amount of notional debt that would be outstanding if available cash and cash equivalents and deposits and long-term and short-term deposits were applied to repay such indebtedness. Net debt should not be considered in isolation as an alternative to long-term debt and short-term debt, or any other measure of our financial position.

 

Revenues from telecommunications services (“Telecom revenues”) are revenues generated by Kyivstar Group Ltd from providing telecommunication services. Telecommunication services refer to data, voice, connectivity, television, and similar services, regardless of medium of transmission, including transmission by satellite.

 

Total digital monthly active users (“MAU”) is a gross total cumulative MAU of all digital platforms, services and applications offered by an entity or by the Group and includes MAU who are active in more than one application.

DEFINITIONS 4G users are mobile customers who have engaged in revenue - generating activity during the three months prior to the measurement date as a result of activities over fourth - generation (4G or LTE – long term evolution) network technologies. Adjusted Net Profit is profit / (loss) for the period, excluding the impact of the one - time charge of $162 mn recognized in 3Q25 related to the Kyivstar listing. ARPU (average revenue per user) measures the monthly average revenue per mobile user. We generally calculate ARPU by dividing our mobile and digital service revenue during the relevant period (including data revenue, roaming revenue, MFS and interconnect revenue, but excluding revenue from connection fees, sales of handsets and accessories and other non - service revenue, but excluding revenue from fixed IPTV) by the average number of our mobile customers during the period and the number of months in that period. Capital expenditures (capex) are purchases of property and equipment, new construction, upgrades, software, other long - lived assets and related reasonable costs incurred prior to the intended use of the non - current asset, accounted at the earliest event of advance payment or delivery. Purchases of licenses and capitalized leases are not included in capital expenditures. Capex intensity is a ratio, which is calculated as last - twelve - month (LTM) capex divided by LTM total revenue. Direct digital revenues include revenues from Kyivstar Group Ltd.’s proprietary digital platforms and services. Doubleplay 4G customers are mobile customers who engaged in usage of our voice and data services over 4G (LTE) technology at any time during the one month prior to such measurement date. EBITDA is a non - IFRS financial measure and is called Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is a non - IFRS financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of the results as reported under IFRS We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as profit/(loss) for the period, before income taxes, depreciation, amortization, loss from disposal of non - current assets and impairment loss, financial expenses and costs, net foreign exchange gain/(loss), share of profit/(loss) of associates and joint ventures, and listing expense, which is also excluded from the calculation. EBITDA margin is calculated as EBITDA (as defined above) divided by total revenue, expressed as a percentage. Equity free cash flow is a non - IFRS measure and is defined as free cash flow from operating activities and proceeds from sale of business, less cash flow used in investing activities, excluding license payments, lease payments, cash outflows for business acquisitions, inflow/outflow of deposits, and financial assets, cash inflow from sale of business and proceeds from share issuance. Gross debt is calculated as the sum of long - term notional debt and short - term notional debt, including capitalized leases. Mobile customers (also - mobile subscribers) are generally customers in the registered customer base at a given measurement date who engaged in a mobile revenue generating activity at any time during the three months prior to such measurement date. Such activity includes any outgoing calls, customer fee accruals, debits related to service, outgoing SMS and MMS, data transmission and receipt sessions, but does not include incoming calls, SMS and MMS or abandoned calls. Our total number of mobile customers also includes customers using mobile internet service via USB modems and fixed - mobile convergence (“FMC”). Multiplay customers are Doubleplay 4G customers who also engaged in usage of one or more of our digital products at any time during the one month prior to such measurement date. Effective 1Q25, 4G usage below the 100Mb threshold is included in Multiplay and Double Play 4G user count (excluded prior to 1Q25). Net debt / (cash) is a non - IFRS financial measure and is calculated as the sum of interest - bearing long - term debt, including capitalized leases (unless specifically excluded) and short - term notional debt minus cash and cash equivalents and deposits, long - term and short - term deposits. We believe that net debt / (cash) provides useful information to investors because it shows the amount of notional debt that would be outstanding if available cash and cash equivalents and deposits and long - term and short - term deposits were applied to repay such indebtedness. Net debt should not be considered in isolation as an alternative to long - term debt and short - term debt, or any other measure of our financial position. Revenues from telecommunications services (“Telecom revenues”) are revenues generated by Kyivstar Group Ltd from providing telecommunication services. Telecommunication services refer to data, voice, connectivity, television, and similar services, regardless of medium of transmission, including transmission by satellite. Total digital monthly active users (“MAU”) is a gross total cumulative MAU of all digital platforms, services and applications offered by an entity or by the Group and includes MAU who are active in more than one application. 22 23 3Q25 Results Presentation ir@kyivstargroup.com
