Netia Now Has Half a Million Broadband Internet Customers

On October 21, the number of customers using broadband Internet services provided by the Netia Group reached 500,000!

Netia steadily continues to implement its strategy for becoming the top provider of broadband Internet access in Poland. With over half a million of high-speed Internet customers, Netia has also strengthened its leading position among alternative providers.

“It took us only a year and a half to double the number of broadband Internet access customers and substantially improve our financial results. I am quite confident that if we keep following our strategy, we can accomplish all of our ambitious goals, including gaining a whole million of broadband customers by 2012,” said Mirosław Godlewski, President of Netia's Management Board.

Early in 2007, when the company's strategy was announced, Netia had a little fewer than 60,000 broadband customers and a market share of approximately 1.5 percent. Netia's current share in broadband Internet access market is nearly 9 percent.

The results for the third quarter of the current year will be announced on November 5th, 2009.
