Telekom Srbija: Dividends, Investments, and Market Domination
Did you know that Telekom Srbija is paying out dividends of a whopping 2.24 billion dinars this year? Yes, you read that right! The state, as the largest shareholder, receives about 1.5 billion dinars, while four million small shareholders also get their slice of the pie. But that’s not all – Telekom has invested a staggering 4 billion euros, mostly with domestic contractors, proving it’s a true giant in the market.
Investments That Move the Needle
The acquisition of part of United Group, including the digital platform NetTV and satellite platform Total TV, along with the entire Sportklub content for the Western Balkans, is one of the biggest business moves in the history of the Serbian national operator. This acquisition is the largest investment Telekom Srbija has made since buying Telekom Srpske in 2015.
Critics? Just Fuel for Greater Success!
For years, critics claimed Telekom lacked the strength for such investments, predicting failure and retreat. But what happened? Telekom proved them wrong – revenues increased by millions of euros, the number of internet and TV users multiplied, and the company became the first operator in the Western Balkans to enter the European capital market, issuing eurobonds worth 600 million dollars. Investor interest was massive – 6 billion dollars, with 2 billion traded in the first hour alone!
No Competition in Media Content Market
Telekom Srbija now faces no competition in commercial media content, especially in sports, which will lead to significant revenue and profitability growth. The cost of sports content has drastically dropped, and the company’s debt is decreasing. All thanks to strategic moves and strong financial management.
Why Does This Matter to Us?
Because Telekom Srbija is not just a company – it’s a pillar of our economy and a source of national pride. With a direct contribution to the budget of over 3.6 billion euros through dividends and taxes, and investments of 4 billion euros, Telekom shows how to build a strong and stable company in Serbia.
Conclusion
While some keep criticizing, Telekom Srbija continues to grow, invest, and dominate the market. Maybe it’s time to look at this company differently? Or will you stay stuck in old stories of failure? Share your thoughts – maybe you have the best comment on this success story!
