“This third quarter confirms the strong momentum generated by our Trust the future plan. Revenue increased across all our geographies, driven by a robust commercial performance. Africa and Middle East continued its remarkable growth, while Europe, particularly Poland, delivered solid results.
We are continuing to implement our plan, with several developments in the third quarter: the launch of new offers in France, the integration of MasOrange now renamed Orange España, sustained growth of Orange Cyberdefense, and an extended SecNumCloud qualification for Orange Business’s cloud offerings.
In October, we signed a letter of intent with Deutsche Telekom, Telefónica and Vodafone to explore a joint bid for MSS spectrum allocation in Europe for mobile satellite services. This initiative supports the ambition to strengthen the sovereignty, security and resilience of Europe’s strategic infrastructure.
Building on sustained EBITDAaL growth of 4.8% in the first nine months of the year, we are raising our 2026 target to growth of more than 4.5%.
I would like to thank all our teams for their commitment and for driving our projects and transformation forward.”
Christel Heydemann, Orange group CEO
In the third quarter of 2026, the Group generated revenue of €12.2 billion, up 3.6%. All geographies contributed to this growth: Africa and Middle East (+14.2%), Europe 6 (+5.3%), Spain (+3.5%) and France (+0.5%). Retail services grew by +3.3%, reflecting solid commercial momentum, driven by remarkable growth in Africa and Middle East (+15.2%), the acceleration of convergent services in Europe 6 (+6.7%) and increase in retail services excluding PSTN3 in France (+1.1%).
The Group’s EBITDAaL reached €4.1 billion in the third quarter, up 4.6%, driven by accelerating revenue growth and continued operational efficiency initiatives. The strong EBITDAaL performance, with growth of 4.8% in the first nine months of the year, enables the Group to raise its 2026 growth guidance from above 4% to above 4.5%.
eCAPEX amounted to €1.7 billion in the third quarter, down 2.5%, and represented 14.8% of revenue over the first nine months of the year, well in line with the annual target of around 15%.
Operating cash-flow (EBITDAaL – eCapex) increased significantly by 10.3% in the third quarter, fueling growth to 8.8% over the first nine months of the year.

The Group continues to expand its customer base, which exceeded 367 million accesses at the end of September 2026.

Joint bid to acquire SFR alongside Bouygues Telecom and Free–iliad Group
On 6 June 2026, Orange, alongside Bouygues Telecom and Free–iliad Group, announced the signature of a Memorandum of Understanding with Altice France to acquire SFR, France’s second-largest telecommunications operator.
While rulings are expected in proceedings brought by the works council within the Altice France group, Orange remains committed to constructive social dialogue, which is ongoing.
Expected closing in the second half of 2027 remains unchanged, subject to regulatory approvals.
Guidance
The Group raises its EBITDAaL target, and confirms all the other financial elements of the guidance for 2026:
- EBITDAaL growth exceeding +4.5% (previously above +4%)
- eCAPEX-to-revenue ratio of approximately 15%
- Organic cash flow4 reaching around €4.3 billion (target raised in Q2 2026)
- Net debt/EBITDAaL ratio with a medium-term target of around 2x
For the 2026 fiscal year, Orange has set a dividend of €0.79 per share, payable in 20275.

Revenue growth driven by strong retail services momentum with record net adds
Revenue in France reached €4,363 million in the third quarter of 2026, up +0.5%. Retail services excluding PSTN continued to grow at +1.1%, supported by our effective value and multi-service strategy. Equipment sales increased +16.1%, driven by strong demand for premium devices. Wholesale services continued to decline at the expected pace (-4.1%).
In the third quarter 2026, Orange France achieved record net adds in mobile (+146k), fixed broadband (+78k) and, particularly, convergence (+57k).
Fixed-only broadband ARPO increased (+€0.4 yoy to €38.7), driven by growth in multi-service offers and upselling initiatives. Mobile-only ARPO declined (-€0.8 yoy to €15.9) due to the competitive market environment, partly reflected in convergent ARPO (-€0.3 yoy to €78.3).
Customer satisfaction and innovation remain key differentiators for Orange, which maintains its leading position in Net Promoter Score with a 9-point lead over the second-ranked operator and continued to introduce new offers and services for its customers this quarter.
These strong results confirm our ambition to deliver “stable +” EBITDAaL in 2026.

Improving trend in service revenue
MasOrange became Orange España on 23 September. This marks a new chapter for Orange, strengthening the brand’s visibility and reaffirming its long-term commitment to the country.
In the third quarter of 2026, revenue in Spain reached €1,910 million, up +3.5%, driven by equipment sales (+28%) and wholesale services (+3.6%). The retail services revenue trend improved compared to the previous quarter.
Commercial momentum continued to improve, with positive net adds in fixed broadband (+7k), mobile (+12k) and new services (+169k). Convergent ARPO rose to €53.1 (+€0.2 yoy).
New B2B wins with major ports, large cities and players in the security sector further strengthen our position as a leading provider of trusted private networks in Spain.
The target of low-single-digit EBITDAaL growth in Spain in the second half of 2026 is confirmed.

Record double-digit growth
Africa and Middle East confirmed their role as a growth driver for the Group, with third-quarter revenue of €2,401 million, a record increase of +14.2%.
All countries contributed to this outstanding performance driven by retail services (+15.2%) and supported by strong momentum across all key growth drivers: mobile data revenue (+20.2%), fixed broadband (+15.0%), Orange Money (+14.6%) and across B2B activities (+23.1%).
These results reflect an excellent commercial performance, with strong growth in our customer base as of 30 September 2026: 180 million mobile customers (+4.2% yoy), 98 million 4G customers (+11.0%), 54 million Orange Money customers (+21.8%) and nearly 5.4 million fixed broadband customers (+15.7%). Average mobile-only ARPO rose by +7.5% in the third quarter.
These achievements confirm the outlook for double-digit EBITDAaL growth in 2026.

Strong revenue growth, with convergent offers gaining momentum
In the third quarter, Europe 6 generated revenue of €1,896 million, up a solid +5.3%. Retail services increased +5.2%, driven by strong commercial momentum in convergent offers (+6.7%) and exceptional IT & Integration services performance, mainly in Poland and Romania.
Europe 6 recorded strong net adds in the third quarter across mobile (+145k), convergence (+27k) and fiber (+71k).
The performance in Poland was particularly strong with convergent ARPO up +5.0% yoy, while quarterly revenue increased +7.9%. Moreover, the completion of the acquisition of Nexera acquisition by our FiberCo, co-controlled with APG, strengthens the joint venture’s growth prospects and expands Orange Poland’s fiber footprint.
Based on these very strong third-quarter results, the Europe 6 EBITDAaL growth outlook of mid-single-digit growth in 2026 is confirmed.

Accelerating transformation in a complex environment
Orange Business generated revenue of €1,717 million in the third quarter of 2026, down -2.5%, as the macroeconomic environment weighed on activity.
Against this backdrop, Orange Business continues to execute its transformation plan, which aims to accelerate the go-to-market of its AI and trusted cloud solutions, particularly to the defense and security sectors, while accelerating efficiency notably through AI and its international partnership with Tech Mahindra.
In the third quarter, Orange Business obtained a new SecNumCloud qualification, strengthening its trusted cloud portfolio. Orange Business was also selected to provide the backbone of the European Union’s network for trusted data exchange.
Orange Cyberdefense accelerated its growth to +12.2% over the first nine months of the year, reaching €1 billion in revenue.
Orange Cyberdefense is commercializing its Dynamic SOC platform in nine European countries and has deployed Qevlar AI solution across 36 Security Operations Centers, reducing threat detection and analysis times.
However, the complex market environment is weighing on EBITDAaL improvement trend.

Key figures
Data on a comparable basis: data based on comparable accounting principles, scope of consolidation and exchange rates are presented for previous periods. The transition from data on an historical basis to data on a comparable basis consists of keeping the results for the period ended and then restating the results for the corresponding period of the preceding year for the purpose of presenting, over comparable periods, financial data with comparable accounting principles, scope of consolidation and exchange rate. The method used is to apply to the data of the corresponding period of the preceding year, the accounting principles and scope of consolidation for the period just ended as well as the average exchange rate used for the income statement for the period ended. Changes in data on a comparable basis reflect organic business changes. Data on a comparable basis is not a financial aggregate as defined by IFRS and may not be comparable to similarly-named indicators used by other companies.
Retail services (B2C + B2B): aggregation of revenues from (i) Convergent services, (ii) Mobile-only services, (iii) Fixed-only services and (iv) IT & integration services (see definitions). Retail Services (B2C+B2B) revenues include all revenues of a given scope excluding revenues from wholesale services, equipment sales and other revenues (see definitions).
EBITDAaL or “EBITDA after Leases”: operating income (i) before depreciation and amortization of fixed assets, effects resulting from business combinations, impairment of goodwill and fixed assets, share of profits (losses) of associates and joint ventures, (ii) after interest on debts related to financed assets and on lease liabilities, and (iii) adjusted for significant litigation, specific labor expenses, fixed assets, investments and businesses portfolio review, restructuring programs costs, acquisition and integration costs and, where appropriate, other specific elements. EBITDAaL is not a financial aggregate as defined by IFRS standards and may not be directly comparable to similarly-named indicators in other companies.
eCAPEX or “economic CAPEX”: investments in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets excluding telecommunication licenses, excluding dismantling assets, excluding financed assets and excluding assets acquired through a business takeover, minus the price of disposal of fixed assets (excluding telecommunication licenses). eCAPEX is not a financial performance indicator as defined by IFRS standards and may not be directly comparable to indicators referenced by similarly-named indicators in other companies.
Organic Cash Flow (telecoms activities): organic cash flow all-in from telecom activities corresponds, for the perimeter of the telecoms activities, to net cash provided by operating activities, minus (i) lease liabilities repayments and debts related to financed assets repayments, and (ii) purchases and sales of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, net of the change in the fixed assets payables, (iii) excluding net telecommunication licenses paid and significant litigations paid or received. Organic cash flow (telecoms activities) is not a financial aggregate defined by IFRS and may not be comparable to similarly-named indicators used by other companies.
Free cash flow all-in (telecoms activities): free cash flow all-in from telecom activities corresponds to net cash provided by operating activities, minus (i) purchases and sales of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, net of the change in the fixed assets payables, (ii) repayments of lease liabilities and on debts related to financed assets, and (iii) payments of coupons on subordinated notes. Free cash flow all-in from telecom activities is not a financial aggregate defined by IFRS and may not be comparable to similarly-named indicators used by other companies.
Adjusted consolidated net income: adjusted consolidated net income corresponds to the consolidated net income (i) before the effects of significant litigation, specific labor expenses, review of fixed assets, investments and business portfolio, restructuring programs costs, acquisition and integration costs, (ii) before the effects resulting from business combinations, (iii) before impairment losses recognized as part of asset impairment tests, (iv) before amortization and impairment losses of other intangible and tangible assets related to business combinations, (v) before amortization and impairment losses of the copper network dismantling asset in France, (vi) before the net income from discontinued operations and, (vii) where appropriate, before other significant specific items, (viii) restated for the effects of these adjustments on financial result and income taxes. Adjusted consolidated net income is not a financial aggregate defined by IFRS and may not be comparable to similarly-named indicators used by other companies.
Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) – Group share Net income – Basic: adjusted earnings per share are calculated by dividing (i) adjusted net income for the year attributable to the shareholders of the Group, after deduction of the effect of coupons on subordinated notes, (ii) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Adjusted earnings per share is not a financial aggregate defined by IFRS and may not be comparable to similarly-named indicators used by other companies.
Earnings per share (EPS) – Group share Net income – Basic: basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing (i) net income for the year attributable to the shareholders of the Group, after deduction of the effect of coupons on subordinated notes, by (ii) the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period.
Return On Capital Employed (ROCE): ROCE (Return On Capital Employed) from telecoms activities corresponds to Net Operating Profit After Tax (NOPAT) for the year ended (N) divided by Net Operating Assets (NOA) for the previous year (N-1).
Net Operating Profit After Tax (NOPAT) for the year ended (N) corresponds to operating profit (i) after interest on lease liabilities and on debts related to financed assets, and (ii) after income tax adjusted for the tax impact of financial income excluding interest on lease liabilities and on debts related to financed assets (tax charge calculated on the basis of the statutory tax rate applicable in France, the tax jurisdiction of the parent company Orange SA).
