For the year ended December 31, 2007 revenue increased to £597.6 million from £292.1 million for
the year ended December 31, 2006. The increase was primarily attributable to the acquisition of Virgin
Mobile in 2006 and the inclusion of its revenue from July 4, 2006 compared to the inclusion of revenue
for a full year in 2007.
Mobile ARPU increased to £10.69 for the three months ended December 31, 2007 from £10.59 for
the three months ended December 31, 2006. The increase is primarily due to the increased proportion
of our contract customers, relative to the total number of mobile customers, rising to 8.4% at
December 31, 2007 from 4.2% at December 31, 2006, partially offset by lower prepay usage in the
three months ended December 31, 2007.
