BT reported first-half adjusted EBITDA of £4.10 billion, slightly ahead of the £4.05 billion estimate, and declared an interim dividend of 2.50 pence per share, just below the 2.53 pence consensus. The UK telecoms group reiterated its full-year guidance, still expecting adjusted EBITDA of £8.1 billion to £8.2 billion, adjusted UK service revenue of £15.1 billion to £15.4 billion, and adjusted revenue of £17.1 billion to £17.6 billion. The in-line EBITDA beat and unchanged outlook suggest stable core operations despite a marginal dividend shortfall. Investors will watch whether BT can deliver the top end of its full-year ranges amid cost pressures and competitive broadband markets.
