"Ooredoo Kuwait continued strong customer growth in the first half of 2015. Our customer base grew by 2.4 million, which is equivalent to an increase of 11% to 24 million in first half 2015 driven by Kuwait, Algeria and Maldives, where we delivered good growth in local currency revenues. We maintained our market leadership position in Tunisia and continued to implement our strategy in Palestine. Net profit was impacted mainly due to adverse currency movements in Algeria and Tunisia,” said Sheikh Saud Bin Nasser Al Thani, chairman of the Ooredoo board.
