Note:
1 Organic growth includes Vodacom at the 2011 level of ownership and excludes Australia following the merger with Hutchison 3G Australia on 9 June 2009.
Revenue grew by 20.0% with an 8.5 percentage point benet from
foreign exchange rate movements and the full year impact of the
consolidation of Vodacom results from 18 May 2009 partially offset by
the impact of the creation of the Vodafone Hutchison Australia (‘VHA’)
joint venture on 9 June 2009. On an organic basis service revenue grew
by 9.5%* despite the impact of MTR reductions and difcult economic
environments. The growth was driven by a strong performance in India
and continued growth from Vodacom and the rest of the region, other
than Egypt where performance was impacted by the socio-political
unrest during the fourth quarter of the 2011nancial year.
EBITDA grew by 20.8% with foreign exchange rate movements
contributing 8.0 percentage points of growth. On an organic basis
EBITDA grew by 7.5%* driven primarily by growth in India, together
withimprovements in Vodacom, Ghana, Qatar and New Zealand,
partially offset by a decline in Egypt following pricing pressure and
socio-political unrest.

Operating results (continued)
EBITDA increased by 8.0%* with the EBITDA margin increasing by
0.7percentage points, reecting higher service revenue partially
offsetby higher customer acquisition and retention costs.
Other Europe
Service revenue increased by 0.5%* with growth in Turkey and the
Netherlands being partially offset by declines in other markets due
tothe challenging economic environment and intense competitive
factors. In Turkey service revenue grew by 28.9%* driven by strong
growth in both data and voice revenue, despite a 52% cut in MTRs
effective from 1 April 2010. In Greece service revenue declined by
19.4%* with intense competition driving a reduction in prepaid revenue
and economic factors leading to customer tariff optimisation.
EBITDA declined by 2.4%*, with declines in all markets except Turkey
and the Netherlands, due primarily to lower service revenue and
higheracquisition and retention costs partially offset by operating
costefciencies.
