This decline was mainly due to disconnections of lines with no traffic, with no impact on mobile service revenues. Pay TV subscribers increased to 3.2 million (+44 thousand or +1.4% vs. 9M24). Fixed broadband accesses grew by 2.5%, totaling 4.1 million (+102 thousand vs. 9M24).TMA: Total mobile accesses (including M2M) reached 19.1 million (+305 thousand or +1.6% vs. 9M24).

Additionally, there were higher financial debt interest expenses of P$144,750 million due to increased borrowing, partially offset by higher gains from loan adjustments of P$117,159 million, resulting from the maturity of UVA-denominated notes, which reduced the outstanding principal balance and, consequently, the associated financial charges.Income TaxTelecom's income tax includes the following effects:the current income tax, determined based on the current tax legislation applicable to Telecom,the effect of applying the deferred tax method with respect to temporary differences determined by comparing our asset and liability valuation according to tax and financial accounting criteria which includes the effect of the income tax inflation adjustment.Income tax shows a gain of P$64,409 million in 9M25 (vs. a loss of P$556,137 million in 9M24).
