The write-down of receivables from customers represents around 11.3% of revenues, with respect to
the percentage in the same period of 2011 (13.4%).
Please refer to the note “Receivables from customers” for further details.
The write-down of receivables mainly reflects the procedures for rationalising and disconnecting
customers carried out by the Group. This strategy led among other things to the mass termination of
around 11 thousand lines of defaulting customers during 2012, a cancellation which will make it
possible to obtain significant savings in line rental costs.
