The payments and proceeds shown here relate to those investments in the broadband build-out that are publicly financed in full. Since the payments are not made at the same point in time as the proceeds are received, the net amounts can be positive or negative in the individual periods. These investments are not included in the operational KPIs “Cash capex” and “Free cash flow,” because the payments made do not result in additions to property, plant and equipment. For more information on the change in estimates for publicly funded investments in the broadband build-out, please refer to the section “Changes in accounting policies, changes in estimates.”
