KEY ASSUMPTIONS Fitch's key assumptions within our rating case for the issuer include: - Core-telecom revenue to increase by low single digit percentage in 2017 as growing broadband and media (IPTV) revenue offsets the decline in fixed-line voice revenue - Core-telecom EBITDAR margin in 0003 to be similar to the 2016 level with effective cost control - Capex to stay around KRW3.3 trillion (cash basis) in 2017 (2016: KRW3.3 trillion) - Free cash flow to remain positive in 2017 RATING SENSITIVITIES Future developments that may, individually or collectively, lead to positive rating action include: - Core-telecom adjusted net debt/operating EBITDAR below 2.0x - No sustained decline in absolute level of core-telecom operating EBITDAR - Sustained positive pre-dividend free cash flow Future developments that may, individually or collectively, lead to negative rating action include: - Core-telecom adjusted net debt/ operating EBITDAR above 3.0x - Sustained decline in absolute level of core-telecom operating EBITDAR - Sustained negative pre-dividend free cash flow LIQUIDITY Robust liquidity: As of end-March 2017, KT had cash and cash equivalents of KRW13 trillion, which was sufficient to cover short-term debt of KRW1.8 billion.
