MEXICO CITY, Feb 10 (Reuters) – Mexican telecoms giant America Movil on Tuesday posted a more than 300% jump in profit for the fourth quarter of 2025, helped by lower financing costs than the year before.
America Movil, controlled by the family of Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim, reported net profit of 19.13 billion pesos ($1.1 billion) from revenues of 244.9 billion pesos ($14.2 billion).
Analysts polled by LSEG had predicted dollar-denominated revenues of $13.33 billion.
America Movil did not detail the amount of its financing costs in the fourth quarter, but said they were roughly half of what was spent in the fourth quarter a year before.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) landed at 94.93 billion pesos ($5.52 billion) for the October-December period, slightly above analysts’ $5.17 billion prediction.
America Movil said it added 2.5 million mobile subscribers, including 2.8 million postpaid additions, in the fourth quarter. Brazil, Colombia and Mexico led the growth, it said.
