Oct 27 (Reuters) - Belgian telecoms company Telenet's (TNET.BR) third-quarter core earnings missed expectations on Thursday, weighed down by the soaring inflation, high energy prices, and tower-related lease payments. The group reported adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation and after leases (EBITDAal) of 312.7 million euros ($314.9 million) for the three months to Sept. 30, up 1% year-on-year, or 4% on a rebased basis. This came below analysts' median estimate of 320.7 million euros in a company-compiled poll. Telenet has been reporting EBITDAal as one of its key metrics since the second quarter of this year to reflect tower-related lease payments following the sale of its mobile tower business to Digital Bridge. Its revenue came in at 660.5 million euros, above analyst expectations of 652.6 million euros.

Oct 26 (Reuters) - Dutch telecom company KPN NV (KPN.AS) on Wednesday confirmed its 2022 outlook as its third-quarter earnings beat expectations, and said it expected "slight" growth in core earnings next year as it works to offset inflation, especially in energy. The largest telecom provider in the Netherlands had previously said it targeted adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation and after leases (EBITDAAL) of more than 2.40 billion euros ($2.39 billion) this year, and of more than 2.45 billion in 2023. European power costs have surged in the past year, driven by record gas prices as Russia curbed supply to Europe. He added the group had given its employees a one-off payment to help them cope with the rising cost of living. KPN reported adjusted EBITDAAL of 618 million euros ($616 million) for the three months ended Sept. 30, beating the 611 million euros expected by analysts in a company-compiled poll.
Under the plan, Vivendi's top investor Vincent Bollore would sell all Editis shares he would receive after the transaction, which would consist of a simultaneous distribution of the publishing unit's shares to Vivendi shareholders and its listing. Vivendi wants to sell Editis to secure the takeover of French media group Lagardere. Vivendi's sales totaled 2.58 billion euros ($2.54 billion) in the third quarter, against 2.48 billion euros in the same quarter last year. Vivendi added however that growth at Havas was offset by a slowdown in its pay-TV unit Canal+. Canal+ revenues in the quarter dropped 4.9% at constant currencies and like-for-like, to 1.42 billion euros.
