Colombian telecommunications company ETB plans to invest about US$70 million over three years to expand its fiber-optic network. The spending is part of a broader transformation plan led by its majority shareholder, Bogotá’s Distrito Capital.
ETB reports its strongest quarter in more than a decade at the close of 2025, as fourth-quarter operating revenue rises 13 percent and operational EBITDA climbs 122 percent year over year. The company attributes the gains to its transformation plan, while higher finance costs contribute to a full-year net loss.
Colombian telecommunications provider ETB reports a net loss of COP 117.9 billion for full-year 2025, even as operating revenue increases roughly 6%. Total income contracts from the prior year, meaning stronger operating revenue does not offset the broader decline in the company’s reported income.
ETB and its subsidiaries report a first-quarter 2025 loss of about COP 46.2 billion, widening their losses amid sustained competitive pressure. The reported result covers the company and its subsidiaries.
