The network, built using FTTH/P and GPON technologies, ensures stable, high-speed, and power-independent internet access even during prolonged outages, with plans to add 6,000 kilometers of fiber in 2025, per Ukrtelecom.
New B2C optical connections grew 21.7% in Q1 2025 compared to Q1 2024, with about 30 medical and 50 educational institutions newly connected, bringing high-speed internet to over 1,330 medical and 1,800 educational facilities nationwide.
Ukrtelecom’s Q1 revenue rose 3.5% year-on-year to 1.17 billion hryvnias ($28 million), though its EBITDA margin fell 10 percentage points to 162 million hryvnias ($4 million), largely due to a nearly 50% hike in electricity tariffs.
The company paid approximately 400 million hryvnias ($10 million) in taxes and fees in Q1.
Ukrtelecom, part of SCM’s business portfolio since 2013 and the sole owner of mobile operator 3Mob, provides a wide range of telecom services and continues replacing copper cables with fiber, expanding coverage annually.
In 2024, Ukrtelecom’s revenue grew 4.6% to 5.3 billion hryvnias ($128 million).
