In the first quarter of 2018, the margin of earnings before interests, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) expanded to 41.8% given well-controlled expenses and a stable naira.

“During the period the business rolled out 298 3G and 174 4G sites with the 4G rollout remaining centred on the top 10 cities across the country,” the statement read.

A statement by the company’s corporate headquarters in South Africa said revenue increased due to growth in Nigeria and Ghana, where voice revenue expanded.
