Complete event summary combining all related documents: earnings call transcript, report, and slide presentation.Q2 2026 earnings summary19 Aug, 2026
Executive summary
Q2 2026 revenue declined 2.6% year-over-year to CHF 712.9 million, mainly due to the lapse of prior price increases and weaker fixed subscriber growth, but commercial momentum improved with net adds of +21,000 mobile postpaid and +3,000 internet subscriptions, and lower churn.
Adjusted EBITDAAL fell 3.8% year-over-year to CHF 244.4 million, reflecting revenue pressure, but cost and lease optimization partly offset the decline.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow grew 33.3% year-over-year to CHF 204.4 million, supported by lower capex and favorable working capital seasonality.
Net loss for Q2 2026 was CHF 22.4 million, a 58.2% improvement from Q2 2025.
Management transition: new CFO Andreas Tolpeit to succeed Jany Fruytier in September, with additional executive appointments to accelerate strategic execution.
