ZAGREB — T-Hrvatski Telekom (Reuters: THTC.L, HT.ZA; Bloomberg: THTC LI, HTRA CZ), Croatia’s leading telecommunications provider, announces unaudited results for the three months to 31 March 2013.

The Group’s TV residential customer base is growing steadily. At the end of March, TV subscribers totalled 347,908, up 7.0% from the same period in 2012.

At the beginning of February, the MAXtv Sat promotion was launched offering new MAXtv Sat customers a 50% discount on the monthly fee for a whole year and one month of using additional packages free of charge (HBO & Cinemax package and Sport Plus Package).

Satellite TV, an extension of the IPTV service, continues to grow, with continuous improvements in the offering providing more value for customers. It is expected to contribute significantly to the overall success of the Group’s TV offering.
