PRESS RELEASE


TELECOM ITALIA BOARD OF DIRECTORS ILLUSTRATES AND APPROVES THE UPDATE TO THE 2013-2015 THREE-YEAR PLAN




Milan, 8 February 2013


The Telecom Italia Board of Directors, chaired by Franco Bernabè, approved the update to the Group's 2013-2015 Plan.


The 2012 results, in line with key guidance, confirm the Group's healthy cash generation and steady debt reduction. In addition, in order to contribute to the financing of technology development plans in fixed / mobile telephony in Italy and mobile telephony in Brazil, identified as the Group's three key growth areas, for the three-year period 2013 – 2015 we intend to extend and accelerate a policy of cost reductions.


The 3-year plan foresees a therefore reinforcement of the balance sheet to support technology development and at the same time defend the Group's financial position.


The Board of Directors has therefore approved the following measures:


The start of an issuance program of 'hybrid' subordinated debt securities for an amount up to 3 billion over a period of 18-24 months.

The distribution of dividends for a total amount of 450 million per annum over the lifetime of the plan.



Guidance for the 2013 2015 plan is as follows:


2013 Group targets*


Revenues stable YoY

Reduction in EBITDA to low-single digit percentage

Adjusted net financial position less than 27 billion



2015 Group targets*


Low-single digit average annual growth (CAGR) in revenues and EBITDA

Cumulated capital expenditure of around 16 billion over three years;

Ratio of Adjusted net financial position to Reported EBITDA less than 2 times in 2015.



(*) Revenue and EBITDA targets are to be understood as organic (at constant perimeter and exchange rates, and excluding non organic income and expenses), unless otherwise specified. The above targets as well as the net financial position are exclusive of any acquisitions of frequencies in Latin America.



Note that this release contains forward-looking statements about the Group’s intentions, beliefs and current expectations with regard to its financial results and other aspects of operations and strategies. Readers should not place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, as final results may differ significantly from those contained in the statements owing to a number of factors, the majority of which are beyond the Group’s control.

Cautionary Statement for Purposes of the "Safe Harbor" Provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a "safe harbor" for forward - looking statements. The press release included in this Form 6-K contains certain forward -looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "believes," "may," "is expected to," "will," "will continue," "should," "seeks" or "anticipates" or similar expressions or the negative thereof or other comparable terminology, or by the forward- looking nature of discussions of strategy, plans or intentions.

Actual results may differ materially from those projected or implied in the forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking information is based on certain key assumptions which we believe to be reasonable but forward-looking information by its nature involves risks and uncertainties, which are outside our control, that could significantly affect expected results.

The following important factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected or implied in any forward-looking statements:

1. the continuing impact of increased competition in a liberalized market, including competition from established domestic competitors and global and regional alliances formed by other telecommunications operators in our core Italian domestic fixed-line and wireless markets;

2. our ability to restructure our organizational model from one based on technology (fixed and mobile) to one based on customer segments (consumers, SOHOs, SMEs, Corporates) in order to focus on customers and their needs in utilizing our products and services;

3. our ability to utilize our relationship with Telefónica to attain synergies primarily in areas such as network, IT, purchasing, sales activities in Germany and international mobile roaming;

4. our ability to introduce new services to stimulate increased usage of our fixed and wireless networks to offset declines in the traditional fixed-line voice business due to the continuing impact of regulatory required price reductions, market share loss, pricing pressures generally and shifts in usage patterns;

5. our ability to successfully implement our internet and broadband strategy both in Italy and abroad;

6. our ability to successfully achieve our debt reduction targets;

7. the impact of regulatory decisions and changes in the regulatory environment in Italy and other countries in which we operate;

8. the impact of economic development generally on our international business and on our foreign investments and capital expenditures;

9. our services are technology-intensive and the development of new technologies could render such services non-competitive;

10. the impact of political and economic developments in Italy and other countries in which we operate;

11. the impact of fluctuations in currency exchange and interest rates;

12. our ability to successfully implement our strategy over the 2013-2015 period;

13. our ability to build up our business in adjacent markets (pay-TV and IT services) and in international markets (particularly Brazil in mobile telecommunications and Europe-Germany-in BroadBand), due to our specialist and technical resources;

14. our ability to achieve the expected return on the investments and capital expenditures we have made and continue to make in Brazil on mobile and in Europe on BroadBand;

15. the amount and timing of any future impairment charges for our licenses, goodwill or other assets; and 16. the outcome of litigation, disputes and investigations in which we are involved or may become involved.

The foregoing factors should not be construed as exhaustive. Due to such uncertainties and risks, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to release publicly the result of any revisions to these forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof, including, without limitation, changes in our business or acquisition strategy or planned capital expenditures, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
