How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

EBITDA financial
"EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure"
EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It measures a company's profitability by focusing on the money it makes from its core operations, ignoring expenses like taxes and accounting adjustments. Investors use EBITDA to compare how well different companies are performing financially, as it provides a clearer picture of operational success without the influence of financial structure or accounting choices.
IAS 29 financial
"International Accounting Standard 29, Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies"
IAS 29 is an accounting rule that tells companies how to adjust their financial statements when they operate in economies with very high inflation, so numbers reflect current purchasing power rather than outdated prices. For investors, it matters because it converts historic figures into meaningful, comparable values—like updating old price tags to today’s dollars—helping assess real profits, assets and liabilities and avoid being misled by inflation-distorted results.
ARPU financial
"ARPU (Average Monthly Revenue per User)"
ARPU, or Average Revenue Per User, measures how much money a company earns, on average, from each of its customers over a set period. It helps investors understand how effectively a business is generating income from its customer base, similar to calculating how much each customer spends at a store. Higher ARPU often indicates stronger sales per customer and better revenue performance.
network slicing technology technical
"using network slicing technology, for the first time in Türkiye"
Fixed Wireless Access technical
"Fixed Wireless Access (FWA)"
Fixed wireless access is a way to deliver high-speed internet to homes and businesses using radio signals from nearby towers or rooftop equipment instead of running fiber or copper cables to each location. Think of it as getting broadband over a strong local Wi‑Fi signal broadcast from a neighborhood antenna. Investors watch it because it can speed customer growth and lower installation costs, but returns depend on coverage, equipment costs and access to usable radio frequencies.

HIGHLIGHTS

 

·Strong Q326 growth, supported by corporate and Techfin performance, alongside a solid EBITDA margin;

 

oConsolidated revenues delivered robust year-on-year growth of 6.2%, reaching TRY 82.0 billion. Turkcell Türkiye was the primary driver of this performance, delivering 5.1% year-on-year growth, largely supported by the outstanding corporate segment revenue growth of 30.6%. Strong Techfin and the Other segment performance made further contributions to the Group’s top-line.

 

oEBITDA1 increased by 6.8% to TRY 36.2 billion, leading to an impressive EBITDA margin of 44.2%, despite higher hardware sales. EBIT² margin stood at 16.6% in Q326, reflecting higher depreciation and amortization expenses associated with our 5G investments and license.

 

oWe recorded a solid net income of TRY 6.7 billion in Q326, underpinned by outstanding operating results, higher monetary gains and lower tax expenses, which collectively cushioned the impact of increased depreciation and finance costs. Significant year-on-year improvement in TOGG’s financial performance also had a more favorable impact on our net income.

 

oOur prudent balance sheet management was reflected in a net leverage³ ratio of 0.31x, while our net FX position remained within the medium-term target range of minus USD 1.5 billion to plus USD 1.5 billion.

 

·Superbox gaining further momentum, fueled by strong 5G network capabilities and growing customer demand;

 

o701 thousand mobile postpaid net additions, bringing the postpaid subscriber share to 82%

 

oSuperbox recorded 101 thousand net additions in Q326, its strongest quarterly performance since Q419.

 

oFurther progress in transforming our fixed subscriber portfolio towards a more profitable mix, supported by 39 thousand Turkcell Fiber net additions in Q326

 

oAcceleration of fiber investment with 242 thousand new homepasses in Q326, bringing the total to 6.9 million

 

oWhile the impact of last year's intense competition on mobile ARPU moderated in the third quarter, the positive contribution of disciplined pricing actions implemented in 2026 is expected to become more visible from Q426 onward.

 

·Following the Board of Directors' resolution dated November 2, 2026, Turkcell signed a share purchase agreement on the same day to acquire 11% of the share capital of Türkiye'nin Otomobili Girişim Grubu Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. ("TOGG"), for a total consideration of EUR 88 million. Upon completion of the transaction, Turkcell's ownership stake in TOGG will increase to 34.0%, further strengthening our long-term participation in the connected mobility ecosystem.

 

·Under our Share Buyback Program, a total of 20.7 million shares were repurchased for TRY 1.9 billion in October and November 2026, with the aim of ensuring efficient capital allocation and creating long-term shareholder value, taking into account the Company's financial position, investment needs, and market conditions.

COMMENTS BY CEO, ALİ TAHA KOÇ, PhD

 

In the third quarter of 2026, we sustained our operational momentum, accelerated revenue growth, and strengthened profitability, supported by our strong technology infrastructure and the contribution of our innovative solutions. In a period of more rational and value-oriented competition in the sector, we closed the quarter with strong subscriber acquisitions, thanks to our customers’ trust in our service quality and their strong interest in the solutions we offer. In this context, we achieved our highest-ever quarterly subscriber acquisitions with Superbox in the Fixed Wireless Access (FWA), where we are the clear market leader1 in Türkiye.

 

In the third quarter, our Group revenues increased by 6.2% year-on-year to TRY 82.0 billion, supported by our end-to-end technology solutions addressing the digital transformation needs of our corporate customers and our strong performance in Techfin. Accordingly, our year-on-year revenue growth accelerated notably compared to the second quarter. Thanks to our strong operational performance and disciplined cost management, consolidated EBITDA2 grew by 6.8% year-on-year to TRY 36.2 billion, while our EBITDA margin increased to 44.2%. The notable improvement in our EBITDA margin in the third quarter, following a first-half performance in line with our expectations, further strengthened our confidence in achieving our full-year profitability targets.

 

Supported by our solid operational results, we closed the third quarter with a strong net income of TRY 6.7 billion.

 

Strong subscriber acquisitions through innovative services

 

Mobile Number Portability (MNP) volume, one of the key indicators of competitive dynamics in the mobile market, has gradually decreased since the beginning of 2026, falling below 2.3 million in the third quarter. This trend indicated continued normalization of competitive conditions in the market. During this period, we continued to differentiate ourselves through innovative initiatives that elevate the customer experience beyond connectivity quality. With the launch of “Turkcell Solution Power” in the third quarter, we aimed to provide our customers with a seamless and integrated experience across all touchpoints. To this end, we integrated our stores, call centers, and digital channels, enabling customers to continue their transactions seamlessly across different channels. Through Teknocan, our AI-powered digital assistant, we also focused on delivering fast, proactive solutions tailored to our customers’ needs. In digital services, we expanded our customer value proposition with “Turkcell One.” The service brings together leading digital platforms, including Netflix, Disney+, YouTube Premium, Amazon Prime, HBO Max, TV+, wonjo kids, fizy Audiobooks, and lifebox, in a single package with the convenience of one bill, and has attracted considerable customer interest in a short period of time.

 

We expanded our mobile subscriber base, supported by our differentiated customer experience initiatives, tailored value propositions, and strong network infrastructure. In the third quarter, we recorded 579 thousand mobile net additions, including 701 thousand net additions to our postpaid subscriber base, which remains a key strategic priority for us. Our efforts to improve customer satisfaction and retention, along with the normalization of competitive conditions, helped improve our mobile churn rate by 1.0 percentage points year-on-year to 1.6%. Meanwhile, the impact of last year’s intense competition on ARPU continued to ease in the third quarter. We expect the positive impact of our disciplined pricing adjustments since the beginning of the year to become more visible from the fourth quarter onward.

 

On the fixed broadband side, we focused on expanding our subscriber base on our own fiber infrastructure. In line with this strategy, we added 39 thousand net Turkcell Fiber subscribers in the third quarter and extended our end-to-end, high-quality fiber network to an additional 242 thousand homepasses. Driven by strong demand for high-speed packages, the share of residential fiber subscribers opting for speeds of 1,000 Mbps and above increased by 27 percentage points year-on-year to 38%. Residential fiber ARPU grew by 2.7% year-on-year, supported by shifts to higher-speed packages and our pricing adjustments.

 

We are turning the power of 5G into achievements while preparing for future technologies

 

Supported by our strong network infrastructure, we provide our customers with a superior connectivity experience through Superbox in Fixed Wireless Access (FWA), one of the key areas where we turn our leadership in 5G technology into value. With our Superbox offerings designed to meet different usage needs, we bring the high speeds and superior connectivity quality enabled by 5G to our customers. Driven by strong demand for Superbox and our high service quality, we achieved a record high in quarterly subscriber acquisitions in the third quarter. During the same period, we recorded 101 thousand net additions, marking our strongest quarterly performance since Q4 2019. This performance further reinforced our leadership in Fixed Wireless Access.

We continue to turn the opportunities offered by 5G into tangible value, not only in communications but also in the digital transformation of different industries. Following the remote surgery performed in the second quarter, we achieved another first in healthcare in the third quarter by transmitting video and audio from a robotic surgery system in real time over our 5G network using network slicing technology, for the first time in Türkiye. These initiatives demonstrate the value that 5G can create across various sectors, particularly healthcare, and our ability to develop advanced technology solutions.

 

In digital infrastructure, we aim to further advance our data center and cloud services, where we hold a leading position in Türkiye, through our work on GPU-based cloud solutions and next-generation AI infrastructure. Through our participation in international R&D projects in strategic areas such as 6G, artificial intelligence, and next-generation digital infrastructure, we contribute to bringing future technologies to life and shaping global standards.

 

We also acquired office buildings at the Istanbul Financial Center to bring our teams together in a more integrated working environment. The new location will enable closer collaboration between our technology, R&D, and support teams, helping us improve efficiency and share knowledge.

 

We are growing in our strategic focus areas and strengthening our long-term value creation potential

 

Our Digital Business Services (DBS) revenues grew by an impressive 65.3% year-on-year in the third quarter, driven by our comprehensive technology solutions that address the end-to-end digital transformation needs of our corporate customers. The share of DBS revenues in consolidated revenues also increased to 13%. Meanwhile, Techfin, a key component of our diversified business model, maintained its contribution to Group growth, with 8.9% revenue growth in the third quarter. Paycell was the main driver of this performance, benefiting from strong momentum in POS services and mobile payments.

 

We continue to invest in renewable energy with determination, in line with our sustainability goals. In the third quarter, we activated our 16.3 MW solar power plant in Ankara, bringing our total installed ground-mounted solar power generation capacity to 175.4 MW and active capacity to 90.8 MW. These investments not only support our environmental goals but also help us manage our energy costs more efficiently. As a result, our total energy expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 1.8% in Q3 2026, compared to 2.3% in the same period last year.

 

In line with our long-term investment strategy, we decided to increase our stake in Türkiye'nin Otomobili Girişim Grubu (TOGG), which ranked first in Türkiye's fully electric passenger car market with a 47%3 market share as of October 2026, from 23% to 34%. We believe that TOGG's established market position and expanding product portfolio, supported by the introduction of new models, will drive sales volumes and economies of scale, creating long-term growth opportunities. We expect this investment, which is also strategically aligned with our technology infrastructure and digital services capabilities, to contribute to our long-term value creation goals.

 

We consider representing Turkcell’s technological expertise and Türkiye’s capabilities on international platforms as an important responsibility. In this regard, I am honored to have been elected to the GSMA Board for a second term. The GSMA is an organization that plays a key role in shaping the future of the global mobile industry. I also view this role as a valuable opportunity to contribute to the development of the global technology ecosystem. I would like to sincerely thank our customers, shareholders, and Board of Directors for their trust and support in our journey to create value through technology, and our colleagues for their dedication and hard work that make our achievements possible.

Revenue of the Group increased by 6.2% year-on-year, reaching TRY 82,044 million (TRY 77,236 million) in Q326.

 

Consolidated revenue growth was mainly supported by Turkcell Türkiye, which represents 90% of Group revenues and recorded 5.1% year-on-year growth.

 

-Corporate revenues grew by 30.6% year-on-year, providing strong momentum for Turkcell Türkiye's growth. Digital Business Services (DBS) stood out with an impressive 65.3% increase in revenues, driven primarily by higher hardware sales linked to an increased number of one-off projects, alongside expanding recurring service revenues supported by price adjustments.
-Consumer segment revenues achieved positive year-on-year growth in Q326, marking an encouraging inflection point. Building on increasingly rational market dynamics and disciplined pricing actions implemented throughout 2026, we expect this momentum to strengthen, with the contribution of these actions to ARPU and consumer revenues becoming more visible from Q426 onward.
-Wholesale revenue stood at TRY 4,184 million (TRY 4,425 million), down 5.4% year-on-year.

The Techfin segment, accounting for 6% of Group revenues, delivered remarkable yearly growth of 8.9%, reaching TRY 4,817 million (TRY 4,424 million). This strong performance contributed positively to the Group's overall growth. Paycell remained the key growth driver, further accelerating its strong momentum, primarily led by the outstanding performance of the POS segment. For further details, please refer to the Techfin section.

 

The Other segment revenues, comprising 4% of the Group’s revenues, which mostly include Turkcell International, the energy business, and non-group call center revenues, recorded outstanding growth of 37.4%, reaching TRY 2,979 million (TRY 2,168 million) in Q326. Non-group call center operations made a meaningful contribution to this strong performance.

 

Cost of revenue (excluding depreciation and amortization) increased slightly year-on-year to 45.4% (44.2%) as a percentage of revenues for the third quarter of 2026. The year-on-year change was primarily driven by higher cost of goods sold (2.3pp), managed service expenses (0.8pp), mobile finance expenses (0.4pp), and content expenses (0.3pp), despite lower funding costs (0.7pp), energy expenses (0.5pp), treasury share (0.5pp), interconnection expenses (0.4pp) and other expenses (0.5pp) as a percentage of revenues. Strong revenue growth in our Digital Business Services and Paycell businesses was the main factor behind the increases in cost of goods sold, managed service expenses and mobile finance expenses.

 

Administrative expenses decreased to 3.7% (4.4%) as a percentage of revenues in the third quarter, thanks to lower personnel expenses.

 

Selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenues improved to 6.1% (6.9%), primarily supported by more efficient personnel cost management.

 

Net impairment losses on financial and contract assets were broadly stable at 0.7% (0.6%) as a percentage of revenues in Q326.

 

EBITDA1 increased by 6.8% year-on-year to TRY 36,243 million (TRY 33,944 million) in Q326, with the EBITDA margin rising to 44.2% (43.9%). This margin performance was achieved despite strong growth in relatively lower-margin businesses, such as hardware sales and POS, as robust revenue growth and continued optimization of expenses supported profitability.

 

–Turkcell Türkiye’s EBITDA was TRY 33,773 million (TRY 32,266 million), resulting in an EBITDA margin of 45.5% (45.7%).

 

–The Techfin segment maintained its strong momentum, with EBITDA reaching TRY 1,439 million (TRY 971 million), resulting in a notable improvement in the EBITDA margin, which increased by 8.0 pp year-on-year to 29.9% (21.9%).

 

–The Other segment recorded EBITDA of TRY 1,031 million (TRY 708 million), with an EBITDA margin of 34.6% (32.6%).

 

Depreciation and amortization expenses were up by 10.3%, amounting to TRY 22,621 million (TRY 20,506 million). This increase was mainly attributable to depreciation and amortization expenses associated with our 5G assets, which began to be recognized in the second quarter of 2026, as well as other investments.

 

Net finance expenses amounted to TRY 2,363 million (TRY 1,732 million) in Q326, mainly reflecting FX losses associated with a year-on-year increase in the short net FX position due to 5G investments and the higher depreciation of the Turkish lira compared to previous quarters. These were partially offset by monetary gains arising from the capitalization of the 5G license. Excluding monetary gain and FX loss, net finance income increased 3.5-fold year-on-year.

 

See Appendix A for details of net foreign exchange gain and loss.

 

Net other expenses were TRY 1,483 million (TRY 703 million) in Q326.

 

Income tax expense decreased to TRY 2,877 million (TRY 3,489 million) in the third quarter, benefiting from the revaluation of fixed assets during the quarter. The impact of this revaluation more than compensated for the effects of the discontinuation of inflation accounting in statutory financial statements as of Q425.

 

Net income was recorded at a robust TRY 6,737 million (TRY 7,002 million) in Q326. Strong operating performance, increased monetary gains and lower tax expenses helped offset higher depreciation and finance costs. TOGG's expanding operational scale led to a substantial year-on-year improvement in its financials, resulting in a more favorable impact on the Group's bottom line.

Total cash & debt: Consolidated cash as of September 30, 2026 amounted to TRY 98,952 million compared with TRY 114,158 million as of December 31, 2025. The decline was primarily attributable to significant cash outflows in the first quarter, including USD 653 million (including VAT) for the first installment of the 5G license and the Wireless Usage Fee, as well as employee bonus payments. As of the end of Q326, 55% of our cash is in TRY, 37% in USD, and 8% in EUR. Excluding FX swap transactions, 43% of our cash is in USD, 33% in TRY, and 24% in EUR.

 

Consolidated debt increased to TRY 226,239 million as of September 30, 2026, up from TRY 197,228 million as of December 31, 2025. The increase was driven primarily by the USD 1 billion Murabaha syndicated loan facility secured in March. Lease liabilities accounted for TRY 17,080 million of our consolidated debt. Following hedging transactions, 67% of our consolidated debt (including IFRS16 impact) was in USD, 20% in EUR, 7% in TRY, and 5% in CNY. As of September 30, 2026, net debt1 increased to TRY 40,686 million from TRY 18,509 million as of December 31, 2025, with a net debt to EBITDA ratio of 0.31x.

 

In the third quarter, we maintained our proactive balance sheet management approach, assessing hedging costs and FX movements. Given the elevated cost of hedging, we adopted a selective hedging strategy focusing on shorter maturities. Accordingly, we maintained our net FX position within the medium-term target range of ±USD 1.5 billion. At the end of Q326, the Group's net short FX position, including the hedging portfolio and advance payments, stood at USD 1.3 billion, almost flat quarter-on-quarter.

 

Capital expenditures increased to TRY 136,499 million in the first nine months of the year, including the USD 1.2 billion 5G license (exc. VAT). Operational capex (excluding license fees) accounted for 22.2% and 22.8% of total revenues in Q326 and 9M26, respectively.

Turkcell achieved 579 thousand mobile net additions in Q326, driven by an outstanding performance in the postpaid segment, with 701 thousand net additions. Prepaid subscriber trends also showed a notable year-on-year improvement. Competitive dynamics in the mobile market became increasingly rational during the quarter, with Mobile Number Portability (MNP) volumes falling below 2.3 million, compared to quarterly levels of around 5 million in 2025. Our superior service quality, enhanced customer experience across all touchpoints, and strategic focus on customer retention contributed to greater customer loyalty, with mobile churn improving to 1.6% from 2.6% in Q325.

 

On the ARPU front, we have maintained our disciplined approach to price adjustments throughout 2026. Notably, we recorded strong quarter-on-quarter ARPU growth across all segments in Q326. We expect the positive contribution of our pricing actions to become more visible from the fourth quarter onward, supporting ARPU performance in the coming periods.

Building on the strong momentum of the previous quarter, Superbox accelerated its growth in Q326, fueled by our superior 5G network capabilities. Offering fiber-like speeds and a seamless connectivity experience in areas beyond our fiber footprint, Superbox continues to attract strong customer interest. In the third quarter, we achieved an all-time high in subscriber acquisitions. We also recorded 101 thousand net additions, marking our strongest quarterly performance since Q419. This outstanding performance further strengthened our leadership in the Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) market, bringing our market share to 75%1.

 

We further expanded our fiber footprint in the third quarter, adding 242 thousand new homepasses and bringing our total fiber homepasses to 6.9 million. By strategically directing our fiber investments towards areas with strong demand potential, we maintained a solid take-up rate of 41%, reflecting our ability to effectively convert fiber homepasses into subscribers. During the quarter, we added 39 thousand net subscribers to our own fiber network. We also continued to shift our fixed subscriber portfolio towards a more profitable mix, gradually reducing our ADSL and cable subscriber base while increasing the share of Turkcell Fiber subscribers.

 

Customer demand for higher-speed connectivity remained strong throughout the quarter, as reflected in the growing share of 1,000 Mbps and above packages in residential fiber. Supported by our disciplined pricing actions and an increasing share of high-speed packages, residential fiber ARPU grew by 2.7% year-on-year in this quarter.

Paycell maintained its outstanding momentum in Q326, delivering 22.7% revenue growth on a yearly basis. This strong performance made a significant contribution to the Group's top-line. Non-group revenues accounted for 81% of the total, reflecting Paycell's strong presence in the broader payment ecosystem. The yearly change in the EBITDA margin, which was recorded at 28.3% in Q326, mainly reflected the growing contribution of the POS business, given its structurally lower margin profile.

 

The POS business was the standout performer, achieving record-high quarterly revenue with 43.7% year-on-year growth. The share of POS revenues in total increased to 48%. POS transaction volume grew by 94% year-on-year, reflecting growing demand for our digital payment solutions. Mobile Payment was another important contributor, with revenues increasing by 15.3% year-on-year. The non-group active subscriber base maintained its strong growth momentum, while the introduction of Turkcell One supported active subscriber growth within the Group.

 

Paycell's total transaction volume expanded by 71% year-on-year to TRY 82.1 billion, supported primarily by strong POS activity, followed by money transfers and mobile payments. This increase was primarily driven by the strong 95% year-on-year growth in non-group transaction volume.

Financell's loan portfolio maintained its healthy growth momentum in Q326, reaching TRY 10.7 billion, with an active customer base of 0.6 million. The company preserved its leading position in the financing sector with a 43%1 market share by number of loans. Supported by lower funding costs and our risk-based pricing strategy, net interest margin (NIM) improved significantly to 7.7%, compared to 5.0% in Q325.

 

While ongoing installment restrictions continued to weigh on Financell's revenue performance on a yearly basis, the company delivered 3.0% quarter-on-quarter growth in Q326. Looking ahead, the increase in the 12-month installment limit for new device purchases from TRY 20,000 to TRY 40,000, effective from early October, is expected to further support revenue growth in the coming quarters.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASUREMENTS:

 

We believe that EBITDA, among other key metrics, facilitates performance comparisons from period to period and management decision making. It also enables performance comparisons between companies. EBITDA as a performance measure eliminates potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting interest expense), tax positions (such as the impact of changes in effective tax rates on periods or companies) and the age and book depreciation of tangible and intangible assets (affecting relative depreciation expense and amortization expense). We also present EBITDA because we believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in evaluating the performance of other mobile operators in the telecommunications industry in Europe, many of which present EBITDA when reporting their results.

 

Our EBITDA definition includes Revenue, Cost of Revenue excluding depreciation and amortization, Selling and Marketing expenses, Administrative expenses and Net impairment losses on financial and contract assets, but excludes finance income and expense, other operating income and expense, investment activity income and expense, share of profit / (loss) of equity accounted investees and minority interest.

 

Nevertheless, EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation from, or as a substitute for, analysis of our results of operations, as reported under IFRS. The following table provides a reconciliation of EBITDA, as calculated using financial data prepared in accordance with IFRS to net profit, which we believe is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS.

RECONCILIATION OF ARPU: ARPU is an operational metric and the methodology for calculating performance measures such as ARPU varies substantially among operators and is not standardized across the telecommunications industry, and reported performance measures thus vary from those that may result from the use of a single methodology. Management believes this metric is helpful in assessing the development of our services over time. The following table shows the reconciliation of Turkcell Türkiye revenues to such revenues included in the ARPU calculations for Q3 2025 and Q3 2026.

2.Basis of preparation of financial statements

 

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended 30 September 2026 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.

 

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Group’s annual consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2025.

 

The accounting policies and presentation are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period.

 

The financial statements of the Company and those of the subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures located in Türkiye and Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus for the period ended 30 September 2026 were restated for the changes in the general purchasing power of Turkish Lira, which is their functional currency, based on International Accounting Standard No. 29 (“IAS 29”) “Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies”. IAS 29 requires that financial statements prepared in the currency of a hyperinflationary economy be stated in terms of the measuring unit current at the balance sheet date and that corresponding figures for previous periods be restated in the same terms.

 

The table below shows the indices and conversion factors applied to the condensed consolidated financial statements as of 30 September 2026:

 

Date   Index   Coversion
factor
   Cumulative
inflation
 
30 September 2026    137.23    1.00000    158%
31 December 2025    110.39    1.24317    211%
30 September 2025        105.78    1.29732    222%

 

New standards and interpretations

 

Material changes in accounting policies and significant accounting errors identified are applied retrospectively, and the prior period financial statements are restated. To ensure consistency with the presentation of the current period condensed consolidated financial statements, comparative information is reclassified where necessary, and significant differences are disclosed. There have been no material changes in the Group's accounting policies during the current period

 

The accounting policies adopted in preparation of the consolidated financial statements as of 30 September 2026 are consistent with those of the previous financial year, except for the adoption of new and amended IFRS and IFRIC interpretations effective as of 1 January 2026 and thereafter. The effects of these standards and interpretations on the Group’s financial position and performance have been disclosed in the related paragraphs.

 

a)Standards, amendments, and interpretations applicable as of 30 September 2026:

 

Amendment to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 - Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments; effective from annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026 (earlier application permitted). These amendments:

 

·Clarify the requirements for the timing of recognition and derecognition of some financial assets and liabilities, with a new exception for some financial liabilities settled through an electronic cash transfer system;
·Clarify and add further guidance for assessing whether a financial asset meets the solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) criterion;

(All amounts disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest thousand currency units and are expressed in terms of purchasing power of Turkish Lira as of 30 September 2026 unless otherwise stated.)

 

2.Basis of preparation of financial statements (continued)

 

a)Standards, amendments, and interpretations applicable as of 30 September 2026: (continued)

 

·Add new disclosures for certain instruments with contractual terms that can change cash flows (such as some instruments with features linked to the achievement of environment, social and governance (ESG) targets); and
·Make updates to the disclosures for equity instruments designated at Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVOCI).

 

The amendments have no significant impact on Group’s financial position or performance.

 

Annual improvements to IFRS – Volume 11; effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026 (earlier application permitted). Annual improvements are limited to changes that either clarify the wording in an Accounting Standard or correct relatively minor unintended consequences, oversights or conflicts between the requirements in the Accounting Standards. The 2024 list of amended Accounting Standard and accompanying guidance include the following:

 

·IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards;
·IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures and its accompanying Guidance on implementing IFRS 7;
·IFRS 9 Financial Instruments;
·IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements; and
·IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows.

 

The amendments have no significant impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Amendment to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 - Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity; effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026 (earlier application permitted). These amendments change the 'own use' and hedge accounting requirements of IFRS 9 and include targeted disclosure requirements to IFRS 7. These amendments apply only to contracts that expose an entity to variability in the underlying amount of electricity because the source of its generation depends on uncontrollable natural conditions (such as the weather). These are described as ‘contracts referencing nature-dependent electricity’.

 

The amendments have no significant impact on Group’s financial position or performance.

2.Basis of preparation of financial statements (continued)

 

b)Standards, amendments, and interpretations that are issued but not effective as of 30 September 2026:

 

Amendments to IAS 21 - Translation to a Hyperinflationary Presentation Currency; effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027 (earlier application permitted). These narrow-scope amendments specify the translation procedures for an entity whose presentation currency is that of a hyperinflationary economy. The entity applies the amendments if:

 

·Its functional currency is that of a non-hyperinflationary economy and it is translating its results and financial position into the currency of a hyperinflationary economy; or
·It is translating into the currency of a hyperinflationary economy the results and financial position of a foreign operation whose functional currency is that of a non-hyperinflationary economy.

 

The amendments aim to improve the usefulness of the resulting information in a cost-effective manner and reduce diversity in practice.

 

The Group is in the process of assessing the impact of the amendments on financial position or performance of the Group.

 

Amendment to IAS 28 – Fair Value Option in Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures; effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027. If an entity has elected to apply IFRS 18 early and to use the fair value option granted by these amendments (for example, for a 30 September 2026 period-end), the entity should apply the amendments retrospectively for the reporting period ending on or after the issuance of these amendments (that is, also for the 30 September 2026 period-end). These amendments clarify which entities are eligible to measure investments in associates and joint ventures at fair value under IAS 28. The exemption from applying the equity method in IAS 28 allows eligible entities to make an election to measure investments in associates and joint ventures at fair value through profit or loss (‘fair value option’). This election has to be made separately for each associate or joint venture at initial recognition.

 

These amendments address stakeholders’ concerns about the diversity in practice when determining the scope of entities eligible to apply the fair value option. This diversity has become increasingly important because the measurement at either fair value or using the equity method affects the classification of income and expenses in the statement of profit or loss under IFRS 18 in either the operating or the investing category.

 

The Group is in the process of assessing the impact of the amendments on financial position or performance of the Group.

2.Basis of preparation of financial statements (continued)

 

b)Standards, amendments, and interpretations that are issued but not effective as of 30 September 2026: (continued)

 

IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements; effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027 (earlier application permitted). This is the new standard on presentation and disclosure in financial statements, with a focus on updates to the statement of profit or loss. The key new concepts introduced in IFRS 18 relate to:

 

·The structure of the statement of profit or loss;
·Required disclosures in the financial statements for certain profit or loss performance measures that are reported outside an entity’s financial statements (that is, management-defined performance measures); and enhanced principles on aggregation and disaggregation which apply to the primary financial statements and notes in general.
·enhanced principles on aggregation and disaggregation which apply to the primary financial statements and notes in general.

 

The Group will apply TFRS 18 and related amendments for periods beginning after January 1, 2027, with retrospective application.

 

The Group is in the process of assessing the impact of the amendments on financial position or performance of the Group.

2.Basis of preparation of financial statements (continued)

 

b)Standards, amendments, and interpretations that are issued but not effective as of 30 September 2026: (continued)

 

IFRS 19 Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures’; effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027 (earlier application permitted). This new standard and amendments work alongside other IFRS Accounting Standards. An eligible subsidiary applies the requirements in other IFRS Accounting Standards except for the disclosure requirements and instead applies the reduced disclosure requirements in IFRS 19. IFRS 19’s reduced disclosure requirements balance the information needs of the users of eligible subsidiaries’ financial statements with cost savings for preparers. IFRS 19 is a voluntary standard for eligible subsidiaries. A subsidiary is eligible if:

 

·It does not have public accountability; and
·It has an ultimate or intermediate parent that produces consolidated financial statements available for public use that comply with IFRS Accounting Standards.

 

The standard is not applicable for the Group.

 

Amendment to IFRS 19 Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures’; effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027 (earlier application permitted). In developing the reduced disclosure requirements in IFRS 19, the IASB considered the disclosure requirements in other IFRS Accounting Standards as at 28 February 2021. When IFRS 19 was issued, it did not contain reduced versions of any disclosure requirements that were added or amended after that date. Subsequently, the IASB issued these amendments to help eligible subsidiaries by reducing disclosure requirements for Standards and amendments issued between February 2021 and May 2024, specifically:

 

·IFRS 18, ‘Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements’;
·Supplier Finance Arrangements (Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7);
·International Tax Reform—Pillar Two Model Rules (Amendments to IAS 12);
·Lack of Exchangeability (Amendments to IAS 21); and
·Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7).

 

The standard is not applicable for the Group.

 

IFRS 20 Regulatory Assets and Regulatory Liabilities; effective from annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2029 (earlier application permitted). This is a new Accounting Standard for entities subject to a specific type of rate regulation. It aims to help investors better understand how that rate regulation affects an entity’s financial performance, financial position, and its prospects for future cash flows.

 

IFRS 20 will affect entities subject to rate regulation that determines how much an entity can charge customers and when it can charge them. Entities that supply vital services such as electricity, water and gas are often subject to this type of regulation.

2.Basis of preparation of financial statements (continued)

 

b) Standards, amendments, and interpretations that are issued but not effective as of 30 September 2026: (continued)

 

If there is a difference between when an entity supplies regulatory goods and services and when it charges customers for those goods and services, reported revenue may not fully reflect the entity’s performance in a period. IFRS 20 calls this a ‘difference in timing’. The key principle of IFRS 20 is that an entity should recognise the total allowed compensation for regulatory goods or services in the same reporting period that the entity supplies those regulatory goods or services. IFRS 20 requires entities to account for the effects of differences in timing in their financial statements by recognising regulatory assets and regulatory liabilities and the resulting regulatory income and regulatory expense.

 

The Group is in the process of assessing the impact of the amendments on financial position or performance of the Group.

 

Comparative information and revision of prior period financial information

 

The consolidated financial statements of the Group are prepared comparatively with the previous period in order to enable comparability of the financial position and performance trends. In order to comply with the presentation of the current period consolidated financial statements, comparative information is reclassified when deemed necessary and significant differences are disclosed. Significant changes in accounting policies and significant accounting errors are applied retrospectively and prior period financial statements are restated.

3.Segment information

 

As part of its strategy to offer integrated communication and technology services and to ensure economic integrity, the Group has divided its main operating segments into two groups: “Turkcell Türkiye” and “Techfin.” Although some of these strategic segments provide similar services, they are affected by different economic conditions and geographical locations. Therefore, they are regularly reviewed by the authority responsible for making decisions regarding the Group’s operations, based on resource allocation and performance. The authority responsible for making decisions related to the Group's operations is the Board of Directors. However, the Board of Directors may delegate its powers excluding the non-delegable powers stipulated by law to the CEO and other executives.

 

Turkcell Türkiye reportable segment includes the Groups’s mobile, fixed telecommunications, digital services, digital business services and data center operations of Turkcell, Superonline İletişim Hizmetleri A.Ş. (“Turkcell Superonline”), Turkcell Satış A.Ş.’s (“Turkcell Satış”), Turkcell Dijital Iş Servisleri A.Ş.

The deferred tax calculation associated with the tax advantages attributable to qualifying expenditures incurred under these certificates was performed in proportion to the declared investment contribution rates and strictly restricted to the statutory timeframes prescribed by the applicable tax legislation.

 

Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized. The Group bases the recognition of deferred tax assets arising from investment incentives in the consolidated financial statements on its long-term business plans. The recoverability of these assets is assessed at each reporting date using business models that incorporate future taxable profit forecasts. The key assumptions underlying these assessments include estimates of sales growth rates, pricing strategies, capacity utilization rates, expected capital expenditures, and applicable tax rates.

 

As of 30 September 2026, the Group performed a sensitivity analysis regarding the incentive certificates obtained for its data center investments. In this analysis, the key assumptions underlying the business plans were varied within a range of ±10%. The results indicated that these variations would not lead to any material change in the anticipated 10-year recovery period. Based on current business plans and the macroeconomic outlook, Group management concludes that the deferred tax assets are fully recoverable within the projected timeframe.

 

As of 30 September 2026, a tax benefit of TRY 4,504,254 (31 December 2025: TRY 2,917,611), which the Group expects to utilize in the foreseeable future, has been recognized as a deferred tax asset in the consolidated financial statements. These deferred tax assets are projected to be recovered within 10 years from the reporting date, with the expected realization of these amounts exhibiting a consistent utilization pattern throughout this period.

Sensitivity analysis

 

The basis for the sensitivity analysis to measure foreign exchange risk is an aggregate corporate-level currency exposure. The aggregate foreign exchange exposure is composed of all assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies; the analysis excludes net foreign currency investments.

 

A 10% strengthening/weakening of the TRY, BYN, EUR against the following currencies as at 30 September 2026 would have increased/(decreased) profit or loss before by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant.
