Avi Gabbay, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, referred to the results of the first quarter of 2020:
"In the first quarter we surpassed the crisis in our relations with the employees' representatives, which enabled us to take steps to improve our service to our customers and operational excellence and to take quick steps to mitigate some of the adverse effects of the Corona virus crisis.
In addition, we have signed a binding memorandum of understanding for the acquisition of Golan Telecom and we are acting vigorously to obtain the required regulatory approvals.
I believe that the proactive steps we are taking will enable the Company to cope with the Corona crisis and enter 2021 as a better and more focused company."
Shlomi Fruhling, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, said:
"The first quarter of 2020 has been characterized by continued competition in the mobile sector while the fixed line sector continued to grow. Quarterly results were partially affected by the Corona pandemic. We expect a greater impact to be seen in the second quarter, and we expect the crisis to continue to adversely affect the Company's results through this year.
The crisis adversely affected revenues from roaming services of customers travelling overseas as well as roaming services of tourists traveling to Israel. In addition, there was a decrease in the contribution of equipment sales as a result of the closing of service centers and points-of-sale during March. The Company's management has taken steps to reduce operating expenses during this period in order mitigate the impact of the decline in revenue.
The Company's adjusted EBITDA totaled NIS 244 million in the first quarter of 2020, up 9%. The adjusted EBITDA was positively impacted by NIS 28 million following a retrospective update of Bezeq's wholesale market tariffs by the Israeli Ministry of Communications, and this was partially offset by the negative impact of the Corona virus crisis.
Net financing expenses in the first quarter of 2020 totaled NIS 64 million. The increase in these expenses compared with the corresponding quarter last year was mainly due to losses in the Company's investment portfolio, which totaled NIS 37 million, as a result of market declines during the quarter. During April, some of these losses were offset due to the increases in securities prices in the capital markets.
Free cash flow for the first quarter of 2020 amounted to NIS 57 million, compared with NIS 46 million in the corresponding quarter last year. The increase in free cash flow was mainly due to a decrease in investments in fixed assets."
Cellcom Israel Ltd. (NYSE: CEL) (TASE: CEL) ("Cellcom Israel" or the "Company" or the "Group") announced today its financial results for the first quarter of 2020.
The Company reported that revenues for the first quarter of 2020 totaled NIS 892 million ($250 million); Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2020 totaled NIS 244 million ($68 million), or 27.4% of total revenues; loss for the first quarter of 2020 totaled NIS 43 million ($12 million).

FINANCIAL REVIEW (FIRST QUARTER OF 2020 COMPARED TO FIRST QUARTER OF 2019):
Revenues for the first quarter of 2020 decreased 3.9% totaling NIS 892 million ($250 million), compared to NIS 928 million ($260 million) in the first quarter last year. The decrease in revenues is attributed to a 16.0% decrease in equipment revenues, which was partially offset by a 0.6% increase in service revenues.
Service revenues in the first quarter of 2020 totaled NIS 682 million ($191 million), a 0.6% increase compared to NIS 678 million ($190 million) in the first quarter last year.
Service revenues in the cellular segment totaled NIS 396 million ($111 million) in the first quarter of 2020, a 2.0% decrease compared to NIS 404 million ($113 million) in the first quarter last year. This decrease resulted mainly from decrease of the Company's roaming services activities as a result of the Corona virus crisis and the ongoing erosion in the cellular prices as a result of the intense competition.
Service revenues in the fixed-line segment totaled NIS 327 million ($92 million) in the first quarter of 2020, a 3.2% increase compared to NIS 317 million ($89 million) in the first quarter last year. This increase resulted mainly from an increase in revenues from internet and TV services.
Equipment revenues totaled NIS 210 million ($59 million) in the first quarter of 2020, a 16.0% decrease compared to NIS 250 million ($70 million) in the first quarter last year. The decrease resulted mainly from a decrease in the amount of end user equipment sold in the fixed-line segment.
Cost of revenues totaled NIS 644 million ($181 million) in the first quarter of 2020, a 7.3% decrease compared to NIS 695 million ($195 million) in the first quarter last year. The decrease in cost of revenues resulted mainly from decrease in the costs related to the internet services in the fixed line segment as a result of retrospective update of Bezeq's wholesale market tariffs by the MOC which resulted in one time expenses in amount of NIS 28 million, and from a decrease in end user equipment sold in the fixed-line segment.
Gross profit for the first quarter of 2020 totaled NIS 248 million ($70 million), a 6.4% increase compared to NIS 233 million ($65 million) in the first quarter of 2019. Gross profit margin for the first quarter of 2020 amounted to 27.8%, up from 25.1% in the first quarter of 2019.
Selling, Marketing, General and Administrative Expenses and Credit losses ("SG&A Expenses") for the first quarter of 2020 increased 2.6% to NIS 235 million ($66 million), compared to NIS 229 million ($64 million) in the first quarter of 2019. This increase is primarily a result of an increase in doubtful accounts expenses.
Operating income for the first quarter of 2020 increased 100.0% to NIS 18 million ($5 million) from NIS 9 million ($3 million) in the first quarter of 2019.
Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2020 increased 8.9% to NIS 244 million ($68 million), compared to NIS 224 million ($63 million) in the first quarter of 2019. Adjusted EBITDA as a percent of revenues for the first quarter of 2020 totaled 27.4%, up from 24.1% in the first quarter of 2019. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA is attributed to a 44.9% increase in the fixed-line segment Adjusted EBITDA, which was partially offset by 10.3% a decrease in the cellular segment Adjusted EBITDA.
Cellular segment Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2020 totaled NIS 131 million ($37 million), compared to NIS 146 million ($41 million) in the first quarter last year, a decrease of 10.3%, which resulted mainly from a decrease in roaming services activities and a decrease in the contribution of end-user equipment sales following the closure of the frontal selling points and the reduction of their costs as a result of the Corona virus pandemic.
Fixed-line segment Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2020 totaled NIS 113 million ($32 million), compared to NIS 78 million ($22 million) in the first quarter last year, a 44.9% increase, which resulted mainly from a decrease in the costs related to the internet services in the fixed line segment as a result of retrospective update of wholesale services tariffs by the MOC which resulted in one time expenses in amount of NIS 28 million, as well as from transfer of subscribers from wholesale infrastructure to fiber infrastructure.
Financing expenses, net for the first quarter of 2020 increased by 137.0% and totaled NIS 64 million ($17 million), compared to NIS 27 million ($8 million) in the first quarter of 2019. The increase resulted mainly from losses in the Company's tradable investment portfolio due to the losses in the securities market in the first quarter of 2020 due to the Corona virus pandemic, compared to a profit in the Company's tradable investment portfolio due to a rise in the securities market in the first quarter of 2019.

Cellular Churn Rate for the first quarter of 2020 totaled to 8.8%, compared to 11.0% in the first quarter last year. As of the first quarter of 2020, the churn rate includes only the negative net churn of M2M subscribers, in order to eliminate changes that do not change the amount of lines held by the customers.
The monthly cellular Average Revenue per User ("ARPU") for the first quarter of 2020 totaled NIS 48.1 ($13.5), compared to NIS 47.2 ($13.2) in the first quarter last year.

In the first quarter of 2020, the Company's subscriber base in the internet infrastructure field increased by approximately one thousand net households, and the Company's subscriber base in the TV field decreased by approximately 12 thousand net subscribers. The decrease in the TV field subscribers results from changing the counting method.

The Company applied the change retroactively, and as a result, the company erased approximately 14 thousands subscribers from its active customer base.

Use of non-IFRS financial measures
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as income before financing income (expenses), net; other income (expenses), net (excluding expenses related to employee voluntary retirement plans and gain (loss) due to sale of subsidiaries); income tax; depreciation and amortization and share based payments. This is an accepted measure in the communications industry. The Company presents this measure as an additional performance measure as the Company believes that it enables us to compare operating performance between periods and companies, net of any potential differences which may result from differences in capital structure, taxes, age of fixed assets and related depreciation expenses. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for operating income, any other performance measures, or cash flow data, which were prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles as measures of profitability or liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account debt service requirements, or other commitments, including capital expenditures, and therefore, does not necessarily indicate the amounts that may be available for the Company's use. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA as presented by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, due to differences in the way these measures are calculated. See the reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA under "Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures" in the press release.
Free cash flow is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as the net cash provided by operating activities (including the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on cash and cash equivalents) excluding a loan to Golan Telecom given by 2017, minus the net cash used in investing activities excluding short-term investment in tradable debentures and deposits and proceeds from sales of such debentures (including interest received in relation to such debentures) and its deposits, and from 2020, with the initial application of IFRS 16, lease payments are also deducted which are presented in financing activity. See "Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures" below.
