- KPN defines EBITDA as operating result before depreciation (incl. impairments) of PP&E and amortization (incl. impairments) of intangible assets. Adjusted EBITDA after leases are derived from EBITDA and are adjusted for the impact of restructuring costs and incidentals (‘adjusted’) and for lease costs, incl. depreciation of right-of-use assets and interest on lease liabilities (‘after leases’ or ‘AL’). Reconciliations can be found in Appendix 2 of the Integrated Annual Report 2022.
- To be proposed at the AGM April 12, 2023.
- Net operating profit less adjustments for taxes divided by capital employed.
- Rebased to KPN’s closing price of the last trading day 2021.
- 2020-2021 figures have been restated, for details see Appendix 11 of the Integrated Annual Report 2022.
- 2021 restated due to improved calculation methodology.
