“This performance reflects the benefits of investments in our networks and products in recent years through upgrades, coverage expansion and selective spectrum acquisitions. We are still investing where we see opportunities, including in the roll out of new subsea cable systems which will drive revenue in future years. More broadly across the Group, though, we continue to anticipate capital intensity declining, while remaining laser-focused on cost efficiencies, to support Adjusted FCF growth.”
“In Puerto Rico, we are confident we have the right assets in place to rebuild momentum and scale in mobile and continue to see FMC as a key differentiator for us going forward.

-
C&W Caribbean: revenue was flat on a reported and rebased basis, year-over-year.
-
Mobile residential revenue increased by
4% on a reported basis and5% on a rebased basis.

-
B2B revenue was
3% lower on both a reported and rebased basis. Year-over-year rebased decline was mainly driven by a decrease in project revenue.
-
Mobile residential revenue increased by
-
C&W Panama: revenue was robust, growing by
5% on a reported and rebased basis, year-over-year.-
Mobile residential revenue grew by
16% on a reported and rebased basis driven by: (i) subscription growth following the addition of 70,000 postpaid subscribers over the last twelve months, including gains following the exit of a competitor, (ii) improved prepaid ARPU and (iii) higher equipment sales. -
Fixed residential revenue was down
1% on a reported basis and up3% on a rebased basis driven by broadband RGU additions following expansion of our FTTH networks, products and commercial activities. -

6% on a reported and rebased basis primarily due to lower revenue from government-related projects.
-
Mobile residential revenue grew by
-
Liberty Networks: revenue grew by
2% and3% year-over-year on a reported and rebased basis, respectively. The rebased increase was driven by wholesale revenue, with higher lease capacity and project revenue offsetting lower non-cash IRU revenue. Enterprise revenue continues to benefit from managed services and B2B connectivity.
-
Liberty
Puerto Rico : revenue was9% and11% lower on a reported and rebased basis, respectively, year-over-year. The rebased comparison includes the acquisition of EchoStar'sPuerto Rico and USVI prepaid mobile customer base on September 3, 2024, which contributed approximately of revenue in each of the current and corresponding prior-year quarters.$10 million -
Residential fixed revenue declined by
1% on both a reported and rebased basis, primarily due to a decline in the subscriber base, including the impact related to the end of the ACP program and lower ARPU from retention-related discounts more than offsetting price increases applied during the period. -
Residential mobile revenue was
10% and16% lower compared to the prior-year period on a reported and rebased basis, respectively. This was largely driven by a reduction in postpaid mobile subscribers and ARPU, year-over-year, impacted by disruption related to the migration of customers to our mobile network. Prepaid revenue was stable over the period. -
B2B revenue declined by
22% on both a reported and rebased basis. The decline was driven by lower service revenues resulting from (i) a lower subscriber base impacted by migration challenges, (ii) lower mobile ARPU and (iii) cancellation of the FCC's Emergency Connectivity Fund (ECF) during the second quarter of 2024, which led to a reduction of 61,000 mobile postpaid subscribers over the past year.

-
Liberty
Costa Rica : revenue grew by4% on a reported basis and2% on a rebased basis, year-over-year.

Q1 2025 Adjusted OIBDA Growth – Segment Highlights
-
C&W Caribbean: Adjusted OIBDA increased by
15% and16% on a reported and rebased basis, respectively, year-over-year. Our Adjusted OIBDA margin improved by over 600 basis points year-over-year to48% in the first quarter.

-
C&W Panama: Adjusted OIBDA increased by
14% on a reported basis and15% on a rebased basis, year-over-year, driven by strong revenue growth and operational leverage.
-
Liberty Networks: Adjusted OIBDA decreased by
2% on both a reported and a rebased basis, year-over-year, with higher network and interconnect expenses in the quarter offset by revenue growth in wholesale and enterprise.
-
Liberty
Puerto Rico : Adjusted OIBDA increased by18% and16% on a reported and rebased basis, respectively, year-over-year. The positive performance came despite the aforementioned revenue decline and was supported by (i) the phasing out of prior period integration costs, (ii) lower equipment costs, (iii) lower FTEs in the period, (iv) lower interconnect costs and (v) the termination of our transition services agreement with AT&T following migration. Compared to Q4 2024, Adjusted OIBDA this quarter was up2% on a reported basis with the sequential decline in revenue of compensated by (i) a significant decline in bad debt expense related to charges taken in Q4 2024 due to mobile equipment installment programs and (ii) lower equipment costs given lower handset sales.$18 million
-
Liberty
Costa Rica : Adjusted OIBDA grew by1% on a reported basis and declined by1% on a rebased basis, year-over-year. The rebased performance reflects higher handset costs and bad debt expense.

Glossary
Adjusted OIBDA - Operating income or loss before share-based compensation and other Employee Incentive Plan-related expense, depreciation and amortization, provisions and provision releases related to significant litigation and impairment, restructuring and Other Operating Items. Other Operating Items includes (i) gains and losses on the disposition of long-lived assets, (ii) third-party costs directly associated with successful and unsuccessful acquisitions and dispositions, including legal, advisory and due diligence fees, as applicable, and (iii) other acquisition-related items, such as gains and losses on the settlement of contingent consideration.
Adjusted OIBDA Margin – Calculated by dividing Adjusted OIBDA by total revenue for the applicable period.
ARPU – Average revenue per unit refers to the average monthly subscription revenue (subscription revenue excludes interconnect, mobile handset sales and late fees) per average customer relationship or mobile subscriber, as applicable. ARPU per average customer relationship is calculated by dividing the average monthly subscription revenue from residential fixed and SOHO fixed services by the average of the opening and closing balances for customer relationships for the indicated period. ARPU per average mobile subscriber is calculated by dividing the average monthly mobile service revenue by the average of the opening and closing balances for mobile subscribers for the indicated period. Unless otherwise indicated, ARPU per customer relationship or mobile subscriber is not adjusted for currency impacts. ARPU per average RGU is calculated by dividing the average monthly subscription revenue from the applicable residential fixed service by the average of the opening and closing balances of the applicable RGUs for the indicated period. Unless otherwise noted, ARPU in this release is considered to be ARPU per average customer relationship or mobile subscriber, as applicable. Customer relationships, mobile subscribers and RGUs of entities acquired during the period are normalized.
Consolidated Debt and Finance Lease Obligations to Operating Income Ratio – Defined as total principal amount of debt outstanding (including liabilities related to vendor financing, debt related to the Tower Transactions, other debt and finance lease obligations) to annualized operating income from the most recent two consecutive fiscal quarters.
Consolidated Net Debt and Finance Lease Obligations to Operating Income Ratio – Defined as total principal amount of debt outstanding (including liabilities related to vendor financing, debt related to the Tower Transactions, other debt and finance lease obligations) less cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash related to debt to annualized operating income from the most recent two consecutive fiscal quarters.
Customer Relationships – The number of customers who receive at least one of our video, internet or telephony services that we count as RGUs, without regard to which or to how many services they subscribe. To the extent that RGU counts include equivalent billing unit (“EBU”) adjustments, we reflect corresponding adjustments to our customer relationship counts. For further information regarding our EBU calculation, see Additional General Notes below. Customer relationships generally are counted on a unique premises basis. Accordingly, if an individual receives our services in two premises (e.g., a primary home and a vacation home), that individual generally will count as two customer relationships. We exclude mobile-only customers from customer relationships.
FMC penetration – Calculated as Fixed Customer Relationships with a postpaid product as a percentage of total Fixed Customer Relationships, including both customers who have converged products and are receiving a financial or experience benefit from them and customers who have a postpaid product outside of an FMC bundle and are not receiving a financial or experience benefit from it.
Fully-swapped Borrowing Cost – Represents the weighted average interest rate on our debt (excluding finance leases and including vendor financing obligations, debt related to the Tower Transactions and other debt), including the effects of derivative instruments, original issue premiums or discounts and commitment fees, but excluding the impact of financing costs.
Homes Passed – Homes, residential multiple dwelling units or commercial units that can be connected to our networks without materially extending the distribution plant. Certain of our homes passed counts are based on census data that can change based on either revisions to the data or from new census results.
Internet (Broadband) RGU – A home, residential multiple dwelling unit or commercial unit that receives internet services over our network.
Leverage – Our gross and net leverage ratios, each a non-GAAP measure, are defined as total debt (total principal amount of debt outstanding, including liabilities related to vendor financing, debt related to the Tower Transactions, other debt and finance lease obligations, net of projected derivative principal-related cash payments (receipts)) and net debt to annualized Adjusted OIBDA of the latest two quarters. Net debt is defined as total debt less cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash related to debt. For purposes of these calculations, debt is measured using swapped foreign currency rates, consistent with the covenant calculation requirements of our subsidiary debt agreements.
Mobile Subscribers – Our mobile subscriber count represents the number of active subscriber identification module (“SIM”) cards in service rather than services provided. For example, if a mobile subscriber has both a data and voice plan on a smartphone this would equate to one mobile subscriber. Alternatively, a subscriber who has a voice and data plan for a mobile handset and a data plan for a laptop (via a dongle) would be counted as two mobile subscribers. Customers who do not pay a recurring monthly fee are excluded from our mobile telephony subscriber counts after periods of inactivity ranging from 30 to 90 days, based on industry standards within the respective country. In a number of countries, our mobile subscribers receive mobile services pursuant to prepaid contracts.
NPS – Net promoter score.
Property and Equipment Addition Categories
- Customer Premises Equipment: Includes capitalizable equipment and labor, materials and other costs directly associated with the installation of such CPE;
- New Build & Upgrade: Includes capitalizable costs of network equipment, materials, labor and other costs directly associated with entering a new service area and upgrading our existing network;
- Capacity: Includes capitalizable costs for network capacity required for growth and services expansions from both existing and new customers. This category covers Core and Access parts of the network and includes, for example, fiber node splits, upstream/downstream spectrum upgrades and optical equipment additions in our international backbone connections;
- Baseline: Includes capitalizable costs of equipment, materials, labor and other costs directly associated with maintaining and supporting the business. Relates to areas such as network improvement, property and facilities, technical sites, information technology systems and fleet; and
- Product & Enablers: Discretionary capitalizable costs that include investments (i) required to support, maintain, launch or innovate in new customer products, and (ii) in infrastructure, which drive operational efficiency over the long term.
Proportionate Net Leverage Ratio (C&W) – Calculated in accordance with C&W's Credit Agreement, taking into account the ratio of outstanding indebtedness (subject to certain exclusions) less cash and cash equivalents to EBITDA (subject to certain adjustments) for the last two quarters annualized, with both indebtedness and EBITDA reduced proportionately to remove any noncontrolling interests' share of the C&W group.
Revenue Generating Unit (RGU) – RGU is separately a video RGU, internet RGU or telephony RGU. A home, residential multiple dwelling unit, or commercial unit may contain one or more RGUs. For example, if a residential customer in
SOHO – Small office/home office customers.
Telephony RGU – A home, residential multiple dwelling unit or commercial unit that receives voice services over our network. Telephony RGUs exclude mobile subscribers.
Tower Transactions – Transactions entered into during 2023 associated with certain of our mobile towers across various markets that (i) have terms of 15 or 20 years and did not meet the criteria to be accounted for as a sale and leaseback and (ii) also include "build to suit" sites that we are obligated to construct over the next 4 years.
Video RGU – A home, residential multiple dwelling unit or commercial unit that receives our video service over our network, primarily via a digital video signal while subscribing to any recurring monthly service that requires the use of encryption-enabling technology. Video RGUs that are not counted on an EBU basis are generally counted on a unique premises basis. For example, a subscriber with one or more set-top boxes that receives our video service in one premises is generally counted as just one RGU.
Additional General Notes
Most of our operations provide telephony, broadband internet, mobile data, video or other B2B services. Certain of our B2B service revenue is derived from SOHO customers that pay a premium price to receive enhanced service levels along with video, internet or telephony services that are the same or similar to the mass marketed products offered to our residential subscribers. All mass marketed products provided to SOHO customers, whether or not accompanied by enhanced service levels and/or premium prices, are included in the respective RGU and customer counts of our operations, with only those services provided at premium prices considered to be “SOHO RGUs” or “SOHO customers.” To the extent our existing customers upgrade from a residential product offering to a SOHO product offering, the number of SOHO RGUs and SOHO customers will increase, but there is no impact to our total RGU or customer counts. With the exception of our B2B SOHO customers, we generally do not count customers of B2B services as customers or RGUs for external reporting purposes.
Certain of our residential and commercial RGUs are counted on an EBU basis, including residential multiple dwelling units and commercial establishments, such as bars, hotels, and hospitals, in
While we take appropriate steps to ensure that subscriber and homes passed statistics are presented on a consistent and accurate basis at any given balance sheet date, the variability from country to country in (i) the nature and pricing of products and services, (ii) the distribution platform, (iii) billing systems, (iv) bad debt collection experience and (v) other factors add complexity to the subscriber and homes passed counting process. We periodically review our subscriber and homes passed counting policies and underlying systems to improve the accuracy and consistency of the data reported on a prospective basis. Accordingly, we may from time to time make appropriate adjustments to our subscriber and homes passed statistics based on those reviews.
Non-GAAP Reconciliations
We include certain financial measures in this press release that are considered non-GAAP measures, including (i) Adjusted OIBDA and Adjusted OIBDA Margin, each on a consolidated basis, (ii) Adjusted Free Cash Flow, (iii) rebased revenue and rebased Adjusted OIBDA growth rates, and (iv) consolidated leverage ratios. The following sections set forth reconciliations of the nearest GAAP measure to our non-GAAP measures, as well as information on how and why management of the Company believes such information is useful to an investor.

- Calculated by dividing operating income or (loss) by total revenue for the applicable period.
- Calculated by dividing Adjusted OIBDA by total revenue for the applicable period.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow Definition and Reconciliation
We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow (Adjusted FCF), a non-GAAP measure, as net cash provided by our operating activities, plus (i) cash payments for third-party costs directly associated with successful and unsuccessful acquisitions and dispositions, (ii) expenses financed by an intermediary, (iii) proceeds received in connection with handset receivables securitization, (iv) insurance recoveries related to damaged and destroyed property and equipment and (v) certain net interest payments or receipts incurred or received, including associated derivative instrument payments and receipts, in advance of a significant acquisition, less (a) capital expenditures, net, (b) principal payments on amounts financed by vendors and intermediaries, (c) principal payments on finance leases, (d) repayments made associated with a handset receivables securitization, and (e) distributions to noncontrolling interest owners. We believe that our presentation of Adjusted FCF provides useful information to our investors because this measure can be used to gauge our ability to service debt and fund new investment opportunities. Adjusted FCF should not be understood to represent our ability to fund discretionary amounts, as we have various mandatory and contractual obligations, including debt repayments, which are not deducted to arrive at this amount. Investors should view Adjusted FCF as a supplement to, and not a substitute for,
The following table provides the reconciliation of our net cash provided by operating activities to Adjusted FCF for the indicated period:

- For purposes of our consolidated statements of cash flows, expenses financed by an intermediary, including value-added taxes, are treated as operating cash outflows and financing cash inflows when the expenses are incurred. When we pay the financing intermediary, we record financing cash outflows in our consolidated statements of cash flows. For purposes of our Adjusted FCF definition, we add back the operating cash outflows when these financed expenses are incurred and deduct the financing cash outflows when we pay the financing intermediary.
Rebase Information
Rebase growth rates are a non-GAAP measure. For purposes of calculating rebased growth rates on a comparable basis for all businesses that we owned during the current year, we have adjusted our historical revenue and Adjusted OIBDA to include or exclude the pre-acquisition amounts of acquired, disposed or transferred businesses, as applicable, to the same extent they are included in the current year. The businesses that were acquired or disposed of impacting the comparative periods are as follows:
-
LPR Acquisition (acquisition of spectrum and prepaid subscribers in
Puerto Rico and USVI from EchoStar), which was completed on September 3, 2024; and - C&W Panama DTH, which was shutdown on January 15, 2025.
In addition, we reflect the translation of our rebased amounts for the prior-year period at the applicable average foreign currency exchange rates that were used to translate our results for the corresponding current-year period.
We have reflected the revenue and Adjusted OIBDA of the acquired entities in our prior-year rebased amounts based on what we believe to be the most reliable information that is currently available to us (in the case of the LPR Acquisition, an estimated carve-out of revenue and Adjusted OIBDA associated with the acquired business), as adjusted for the estimated effects of (a) any significant differences between
The following tables provide the aforementioned adjustments made to the revenue and Adjusted OIBDA amounts for the period indicated, to derive our rebased growth rates. Due to rounding, certain rebased growth rate percentages may not recalculate.
In the tables set forth below:
- reported percentage changes are calculated as current period measure, as applicable, less prior-period measure divided by prior-period measure; and
- rebased percentage changes are calculated as current period measure, as applicable, less rebased prior-period measure divided by rebased prior-period measure.
The following tables set forth the reconciliation from reported revenue to rebased revenue and related change calculations.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation for Consolidated Leverage Ratios
We have set forth below our consolidated leverage and net leverage ratios. Our consolidated leverage and net leverage ratios (Consolidated Leverage Ratios), each a non-GAAP measure, are defined as (i) the principal amount of debt and finance lease obligations less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash related to debt divided by (ii) last two quarters of annualized Adjusted OIBDA. We generally use Adjusted OIBDA for the last two quarters annualized when calculating our Consolidated Leverage Ratios to maintain as much consistency as possible with the calculations established by our debt covenants included in the credit facilities or bond indentures for our respective borrowing groups, which are predominantly determined on a last two quarters annualized basis. For purposes of these calculations, adjusted total debt and finance lease obligations is measured using swapped foreign currency rates. We believe our consolidated leverage and net leverage ratios are useful because they allow our investors to consider the aggregate leverage on the business inclusive of any leverage at the Liberty Latin America level, not just at each of our operations. Investors should view consolidated leverage and net leverage as supplements to, and not substitutes for, the ratios calculated based upon measures presented in accordance with

Puerto Rico . -
Operating income or loss is the closest
U.S. GAAP measure to Adjusted OIBDA, as discussed in Adjusted OIBDA above. Accordingly, we have presented consolidated debt and finance lease obligations to operating income and consolidated net debt and finance lease obligations to operating income as the most directly comparable financial ratios to our non-GAAP consolidated leverage and consolidated net leverage ratios. -
Adjusted OIBDA is a non-GAAP measure. See Adjusted OIBDA above for reconciliation of Adjusted OIBDA to the nearest
U.S. GAAP measure for the three months ended March 31, 2025. A reconciliation of our operating income (loss) to Adjusted OIBDA for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024 is presented in the following table:

Non-GAAP Reconciliations for Our Borrowing Groups
The financial statements of each of our borrowing groups are prepared in accordance with
Adjusted OIBDA for our borrowing groups is defined as operating income or loss before share-based compensation and other Employee Incentive Plan-related expense, depreciation and amortization, related-party fees and allocations, provisions and provision releases related to significant litigation and impairment, restructuring and other operating items. Proportionate Adjusted OIBDA is defined as Adjusted OIBDA less the noncontrolling interests' share of Adjusted OIBDA. We believe these measures at the borrowing group level are useful to investors because they are one of the bases for comparing our performance with the performance of other companies in the same or similar industries, although our measures may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other public companies. These measures should be viewed as measures of operating performance that are a supplement to, and not a substitute for, operating income or loss, net earnings or loss and other
