On September 14th, 2020 we announced that we entered into an agreement with Verizon Communications Inc. to sell our 100% interest in TracFone Wireless, Inc., the largest mobile virtual prepaid service operator in the United States, serving 21 million subscribers. The agreed purchase price payment at the closing is US$6,250 million, of which one-half will be in cash and the other in Verizon stock. In addi- tion, following the closing, Verizon shall pay to AMX: (i) up to US$500 million as an earn-out if Tracfone continues to achieve certain performance measures during the 24 months following the closing, calculated and paid in 4 consecutive 6-month periods, and (ii) US$150 million deferred commercial consideration payable within two years following the closing. AMX will continue to benefit from EBITDA generated by Tracfone during fiscal year 2020 and until the closing date of the transaction. The closing of the transaction is subject to customary conditions for this type of transactions, including obtaining required governmental approvals. Parties expect the closing to occur during 2021.

On September 3rd we terminated the agreement to purchase 99.3% of Telefónica Móviles El Salvador, S.A. de C.V. The decision comes after careful consideration by both parties of the conditions established by the Superintendencia de Compe- tencia for approval of the transaction.
On July 27th we informed that our Brazilian subsidiary, Claro S.A. ("Claro"), agreed to extend a binding offer submitted jointly with Telefónica Brasil S.A. and TIM S.A for the acquisition of the mobile business owned by Oi Group, in the amount of R$16,500 million. The offer was submitted by the parties, and is subject to certain conditions, including their right to make a higher bid than any other offer potentially presented by a third party ("right to top") in the competitive process of Oi Group's mobile business sale. Claro believes that the joint offer with TIM and Telefónica is the one that best serves the interests of current customers of Oi, as it provides long-term experience in the Brazilian market, investment capacity and technical innovation to the sector as a whole and it is in line with current regulation.

América Móvil Consolidated Results
Following the massive monetary and fiscal stimulus introduced throughout the world since the advent of the pandemic, the third quarter saw a rebound in economic activity in most countries in our region of operation and little of the volatility that was present in the prior two quarters. With the exception of the Brazilian real, which continued to deteriorate vs. the U.S. dollar, the main currencies in Latin America did not see much change over the period.
Our third quarter revenues rose 4.7% in Mexican peso terms from a year before to reach 260 billion pesos, as service revenues expanded 5.4%. At constant exchange rates service revenues were up 1.5%-roughly twice as fast as in the preceding quarter-on the back of continued strong performance of fixed-broadband revenues and the recovery of mobile prepaid revenues, those most affected in the prior quarter in the midst of the lockdown measures implemented throughout Latin America. The difference between the growth rate in peso terms and that at constant exchange rates has to do with the Mexican peso having depreciated against practically all other operating currencies except the Brazilian real and the Argentinean peso in the period: revenues in other currencies increased faster in peso terms.
Mobile service revenues accelerated to 3.5% from 2.3% in the second quarter buoyed by prepaid rev- enues-they rose to +2.5% from -2.0%-while fixed- line service revenues maintained a 1.4% pace of decline as the gains observed in fixed-broadbandrevenues-from a pace of +7.3% to one of +9.1%- were equaled by new revenue losses in fixed-line voice and PayTV revenues. The rhythm of decline of the latter, -9.2%, equaled the pace of growth of fixed-broadband revenues.
Colombia was the only country where service revenues expanded on both the mobile and the fixed-line platform in the third quarter-almost at the same pace in each one. The strongest growth on that platform was in those countries that have more
recently initiated their fixed-lineoperations-Peru,
Ecuador, Argentina, Costa Rica-while Dominicana, Brazil and Puerto Rico all had, together with Colombia, very strong showings on the mobile platform.
Across our operations, voice MOUs rose 11.7% while mobile data per user was up 41.2%, all of which resulted in a 5.0% increase in mobile ARPUs at constant exchange rates. Prepaid ARPUs shot up to an 8.0% year-on-year increase from 0% the preceding quarter while postpaid ARPUs decelerated sharply their rate of decline, from -6.4% in the second quarter to -1.4% in the third.

Our operating profit shot up 18.4% to 45.1 billion pesos and was the driver of a 45% increase in our net income, which totaled 18.9 billion pesos.
In cash flow terms, our net debt came down by 47.0 billion pesos over the nine months to September. In addition, we devoted 15 billion pesos to cover our pension -related commitments. Notwithstanding the above, our net debt (after leases) ended September 48.8 billion pesos higher than in December, at 726 billion. The increase in the amount outstanding in peso terms is due solely to the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates on the non-peso debt, with the peso falling 12.4% vs. the U.S. dollar and 15.6% vs. the euro in relation to December 2019. At the end of the month our net debt to EBITDA ratio stood at 1.88 times under IAS17, slightly less than at the end of June.

Our Mexican revenues totaled 73.2 billion pesos, up 0.4% from the year before, with service revenues declining slightly, -0.7%, an improvement on the -2.1% year- on-year reduction observed the prior quarter.
Mobile service revenues declined 0.6%, improving on their -2.5% pace of the second quarter. The recovery of Mexican mobile revenues was wholly driven by the bounce in prepaid revenues, which went from a -3.8% pace in the second quarter to +1.1% in the third.

Similarly, fixed-line service revenues came down 1.0% year-on-year in the third quarter, having fallen 1.4% the previous one. There were important advances both on fixed-broadbandservices-their expansion moved up from 1.8% in the second quarter to 6.0%-and in corporate networks, overcoming a 3.3% fall in the second quarter to a +2.2% increase in the third quarter. Losses in fixed-line voice revenues determined that revenues on that platform continued to decline.

EBITDA expanded 1.3% in the third quarter helped along by the improvement in revenues, recovering from a 10.3% year-on-year plunge in the second quarter. The EBITDA margin was slightly higher, 37.6%, on the relative normalization of commercial activities and associated expenses.

For comparison purposes all comments in this section related to annual variations of the presented period for Argentina refer to figures in constant peso terms, that is, adjusted for inflation in accordance to NIC 29. Information for Uruguay and Paraguay is not presented in the table.
Telecommunication services have been considered "essential services" by presidential decree beginning in August; as such, we have been forbidden to raise prices for our services for the remainder of 2020.
Third quarter revenues declined 9.6% in real terms (after inflation) from the year-earlier quarter with service revenues falling 9.4%. Mobile service revenues came down 12.0% as subscribers curtailed their usage or disconnected lines as disposable income contracted and unemployment rates increased on account of lockdown measures that were prolonged through September. The impact was more hardly felt on the postpaid segment where revenues declined 13.0%; prepaid revenues declined 7.7%. Fixed-line service revenues rose 13.9% from a small base driven by broadband revenue growth of 22.7% and PayTV revenues that increased 164.4%.

Third quarter EBITDA was down 9.1% year-on-year and the EBITDA margin stayed roughly flat at 41.6%. Given the current conditions, we have made extraordinary efforts to contain costs and thrive in an inflationary environment. As a result of strict cost controls we were able to post a sequential increase in EBITDA of 8.6% in spite a 7.2% plunge in service revenues. The sequential increase in the EBITDA margin was 3.5 percentage points.

Third quarter revenues were up 1.1% from the year-earlier quarter to 9.8 billion reais, with service revenues roughly flat, 0.3%, as mobile service revenues rose 8.1% and fixed-line revenues came down 5.1%.
Mobile service revenues were buoyed by the strong recovery of prepaid reve- nues, from -1.0% in the second quarter to +5.1% in the third, and by continued strong performance of postpaid revenues, up 9.0% in the quarter.
Mobile ARPU rose 25.7% on the back of a 50% increase in consumption of data services per client and 19.8% in voice services (MOUs) which also increased sig- nificantly.
On the fixed-line platform broadband revenues continued growing along their trend line-at 9.9% they were expanding at the same pace as in the second quarter-but the down-trend on PayTV revenues accelerated to -13.6% from -11.7% the precedent quarter along with the reduction of PayTV accesses.

Third quarter revenues of 192.7 billion Chilean pesos were down 6.6% on an annual basis with service revenues declining 7.2%-compared to 7.0% in the prior quarter-and equipment revenues declining 4.4%.
Mobile service revenues declined 9.0% in the third quarter. In the prepaid segment revenues were down 14.7%, which marked a sequential improvement from the 31.8% decline observed the prior quarter. But in postpaid, revenues dropped 8.3% exacerbating the contraction that began in the second quarter mostly as a result of the pandemic, in particular due to the poor performance of SMEs that had to materially reduce or cancel the services altogether. In spite of the tough conditions generated by the sanitary crisis, we continued to observe aggressive promotional activity in Chile.

In the third quarter we added 314 thousand prepaid subscribers but disconnected 370 thousand postpaid clients to finish September with 7.8 million wireless sub- scribers.
Our third quarter revenues were down 18.5% from the year-earlier quarter to 266 million dollars with service revenues declining 10.0% and equipment revenues plummeting 64.0% as commercial activity remained subdued. Service revenues on the mobile segment fell 12.1% compared to -18.9% in the second quarter as prepaid revenues recovered following the relaxation of lockdown measures: although still down 12.3% year-on-year, that was an improvement relative to the 27.5% observed in the second quarter. Postpaid revenues carried forward to the third quarter their 12% annual rate of decline.
Fixed-line service revenues, albeit at 10% still a small share of service revenues, were up 14.7% supported by broadband revenues that increased 23.3%.
We continued working on adjusting our cost structure and were able to lift our EBITDA margin by 6.2 percentage points relative to the year-earlier quarter to 49.8% of revenues. Nonetheless, at 133 million dollars our EBITDA was down 6.9%.

Revenues declined 3.6% in the third quarter, compared to -17.7% in the prior one. The improvement came from equipment revenues that went from minus 76.4% in the second quarter to -23.1% in the current period.
Mobile service revenues remained flat as compared to last year with a very different trend in the segments: In prepaid, service revenue growth accelerated to 9.7% as a result of subscriber growth and ARPU improvement, whereas in postpaid revenues continued to decelerate, declining -3.9% from +1.6% in the second quarter. The economic conditions have forced some clients to move to prepaid, including the smaller businesses.

In the third quarter we gained 89 thousand prepaid subscribers and disconnected 97 thousand postpaid subscribers. On the fixed-line segment we had disconnections of 152 thousand units in the quarter, most of them voice lines.
Disconnections of postpaid subscribers and fixed-line RGUs stemmed from the decision of subscribers to cancel their services after the measures imposed at the beginning of the sanitary crisis in most Central American markets that prohibited us to disconnect any line in absence of payment were lifted in the months of July and August. Subscribers were supposed to cover the balance due in installments.
This was reflected in total revenues that posted a 9.4% year-on-year decline, to 552 million dollars. Service revenues were down 5.4% and equipment revenues 36.4%. On the mobile platform service revenues declined 6.9% with postpaid revenues off 9.6% (from -3.8% the prior quarter) and prepaid revenues 4.4%. On the fixed-line segment service revenues were 2.6% lower than a year before with broadband being the only business line that saw revenue expansion, 5.8%, over the year.

EBITDA was up 5.8% with the margin climbing two percentage points from the year-earlier quarter to 48.5% on the back of operational efficiencies and the recovery of the revenue base.
Puerto Rico's revenue grew 10.9% year-on-year with service revenues expanding 2.8%. Growth is partly linked to federal and local government aid to students that helped boost equipment sales and a greater demand for fixed broadband and mobile WiFi services. This is reflected in a 13.8% increase in mobile postpaid service revenues-from 2.7% the second quarter.

We added 310 thousand postpaid wireless subscribers-241 thousand in Austria- and 91 thousand prepaids in the third quarter. On the fixed-line platform, the number of fixed broadband and PayTV accesses changed marginally.
On a consolidated basis, third quarter revenues decreased 0.9% to 1.1 billion eu- ros, with service revenues declining 2.1% due to roaming losses and negative foreign exchange effects arising form the devaluation of the Belarussian currency. At constant exchange rates service revenues increased 0.1%.

On the fixed-line segment revenues were flat year-on-year with Austria falling 1.6% driven by lower interconnection revenues as international traffic volumes decreased sharply. Our international operations saw fixed-line service revenues rising 2.3%.

In Austria EBITDA rose 4.7% before restructuring charges while in our international operations it was up 3.3% (adjusted by foreign exchange and one-offs) on the back of strong performances in Belarus, Bulgaria and Slovenia.
