According to Oi, Ebitda was impacted, “mainly (i) by the acceleration in the decline in revenue from legacy services, including DTH TV, without proportional compensation in efficiency, given the current limitations of the regulatory framework; and (ii) the growth in network rental costs, to support the growth of fiber operations, resulting from the operational model started in Jun-22”.
