French telecom operator Iliad posted a 2.2% rise in first-half EBITDAaL (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization after leases) to €2 billion in 2026, buoyed by strong performance in Italy. Consolidated revenue increased 3% from a year earlier to €5.24 billion. Revenue rose 1.5% in France to €3.32 billion, jumped 10.2% in Italy to €665 million and grew 3.5% in Poland to €1.26 billion. Iliad added 300,000 subscribers in the second quarter, taking its total customer base to 52.5 million at the end of June. Growth came from mobile customers, while fixed-line subscriptions were broadly stable. France ended the quarter with 23.4 million subscribers, while Italy and Poland each added about 100,000 customers, reaching 13.3 million and 15.8 million, respectively. The results highlight Iliad’s evolution from a French price disruptor into a broader European telecoms group, with Italy and Poland providing an increasing share of growth as its domestic market approaches saturation.
