NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a) Basis of preparation and significant accounting policies

As required by the CNV, the unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with RT 26 of FACPCE (and its amendments), which adopted IFRS as issued by the IASB, standards adopted by the CPCECABA.

For the preparation of these unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company has elected to make use of the option provided by IAS 34 and has prepared them in its condensed form. Therefore, these financial statements do not include all the information required in an annual financial statement and, consequently, they must be read jointly with the annual financial statements as of December 31, 2020. The annual financial statements can be consulted at the website of Telecom Argentina (https://institucional.telecom.com.ar/inversores/informacionfinanciera.html). Therefore, these unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared following the same accounting policies as in the most recent annual financial statements.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared including in the consolidation process the following companies:

Company	Main Activity	Country	Telecom Argentina’s direct and indirect interest in capital stock and votes
Núcleo	Mobile telecommunications Services	Paraguay	67.50%
Personal Envíos	Mobile financial services	Paraguay	67.50%
Tuves Paraguay	Distribution of television and audio signals direct to home	Paraguay	67.50%
Micro Sistemas	Services related to the use of electronic payment media	Argentina	100.00%
Pem	Investments	Argentina	100.00%
Cable Imagen	Closed-circuit television	Argentina	100.00%
Televisión Dirigida	Cable television services	Paraguay	100.00%
Adesol (a)	Holding	Uruguay	100.00%
AVC Continente Audiovisual	Broadcasting services	Argentina	60.00%
Inter Radios	Broadcasting services	Argentina	100.00%
Telecom USA	Telecommunication services	USA	100.00%
Personal Smarthome S.A. (b)	Security solutions and services	Argentina	100.00%

(a) Includes the 100% interest in Telemas S.A., whose objective is managing the following special-purpose entities: Audomar S.A., Bersabel S.A., Dolfycor S.A., Reiford S.A., Space Energy S.A., Tracel S.A. and Visión Satelital S.A.

(b) Company started on December 30, 2020 and registered in the IGJ on June 9, 2021. As of June 30, 2021 is a dormant entity.

The preparation of these unaudited consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires that the Company’s Management make estimates that affect the figures disclosed in the financial statements or its complementary information. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in current currency as of June 30, 2021 (see item e) on an accrual basis of accounting (except for the statement of cash flows). Under this basis, the effects of transactions are recognized when they occur. Therefore, income and expenses are recognized at fair value on an accrual basis regardless of when they are received or paid. When significant, the differences between the fair value and the nominal amount of income and expenses are recognized as finance income or expense using the effective interest method.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2021, were approved by resolution of the Board of Directors’ meeting held on August 6, 2021.

b) Unaudited consolidated financial statement formats

The unaudited consolidated financial statement formats adopted are consistent with IAS 1. In particular:

· the consolidated statements of financial position have been prepared by classifying assets and liabilities according to the “current and non-current” criterion. Current assets and liabilities are those that are expected to be realized/settled within twelve months after the period-end;

· the consolidated income statements have been prepared by classifying operating expenses by nature of expense as it represents the way that the business is monitored by the Executive Committee and the CEO and, additionally, is in line with the usual presentation of expenses in the ICT services industry;

· the consolidated statements of comprehensive income include the net income (loss) of the period included in the consolidated income statement and all components of other comprehensive income;

F-9

Table of Contents

TELECOM ARGENTINA S.A.

· the consolidated statements of changes in equity have been prepared showing separately (i) net income (loss) of the period, (ii) other comprehensive income (loss) of the period, and (iii) transactions with shareholders (controlling and non-controlling interest) if corresponds;

· the consolidated statements of cash flows have been prepared by presenting cash flows from operating activities according to the “indirect method”, as permitted by IAS 7.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all disclosures required under IAS 34. Some additional disclosures required by the LGS and/or by the CNV have been also included.

c) Segment information

An operating segment is defined as a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, and whose financial information is available, held separately, and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker. In the case of the Company, the Executive Committee and the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) are responsible for controlling recourses and for the economic and financial performance of Telecom.

The Executive Committee and the CEO have a strategic and operational vision of Telecom as a single business unit in Argentina, according to the current regulatory context of the converged ICT services industry (adding to the same segment the activities related to the mobile services, internet services, cable television services and fixed telephony services, services governed by the same regulatory framework of ICT services). To exercise its functions, both the Executive Committee and the CEO receive periodically the economic and financial information of Telecom Argentina and its subsidiaries (in currency of the date of each transaction), that is prepared as a single segment, and evaluate the evolution of business as a results generation unit, administrating the resources in a unique way to achieve the objectives. Regarding costs, they are not specifically appropriated to a type of service, considering that the Company has a single payroll and general operating expenses that affect all services in general (non-specific). On the other hand, decisions on CAPEX affect all the types of services provided by Telecom in Argentina and not specifically one of them. Based on what was previously described and under the accounting principles established in IFRS as issued by the IASB, it was defined that the Company has a single segment of operations in Argentina.

Telecom carries out activities abroad (Paraguay, United States of America and Uruguay). These operations are not analyzed as a separate segment by the Executive Committee and the CEO, who analyze the consolidated information of companies in Argentina and abroad (in currency of the date of each transaction), considering that the activities of foreign companies are not significant for Telecom. The operations that Telecom carries out abroad do not meet the aggregation criteria established by the standard to be grouped within the “Services rendered in Argentina” segment, and considering that they do not exceed any of the quantitative thresholds identified in the standard to qualify as reportable segments, they are grouped within the category “Other abroad segments”.

Presented below is the Segment financial information as analyzed by the Executive Committee and the CEO for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:

d) Net earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income for the period attributable to owners of the Parent Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. On the other hand, diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income for the period attributable to owners of the Parent Company by the weighted average number of common shares issued and to be potentially issued at the end of the period. Since the Company has no dilutive potential common stock outstanding, basic and dilutive earnings per share amounts are the same.

For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the weighted average number of shares outstanding amounted to 2,153,688,011.

e) Financial reporting in hyperinflationary economies

IAS 29 establishes the conditions under which an entity shall restate its financial statements if it operates in an economic environment considered hyperinflationary.

To determine the existence of a highly inflationary economy under the terms of IAS 29, the standard details a series of characteristics to consider, including a cumulative inflation rate over three years that approximates or exceeds 100%.

TELECOM ARGENTINA S.A.

The macroeconomic events that have taken place in the country during the year 2018 and the three-year accumulated inflation rate as of December 31, 2018, that reached 147.8%, evidenced compliance with the qualitative and quantitative factors provided for in IAS 29 to consider Argentina as a highly inflationary economy for accounting purposes. On the other hand, the FACPCE issued Resolution No. 539/18 on September 29, 2018 in which defined the need to restate the financial statements of Argentine companies for reporting periods ended after July 1, 2018, establishing specific issues in relation to the inflation restatement such as, for example, the indexes to be used (Resolution approved on October 10, 2018, by the CPCECABA through Resolution No. 107/18).

In addition, Law No. 27,468 amended Section 10 of Law No. 23,928, and its amendments, providing that the repeal of all the laws and regulations that establish or authorize price indexation, currency restatement, cost variation or any other form of restatement of debts, taxes, prices or fees related to goods, works in progress or services, does not apply to financial statements, which remain subject to Section 62 of the General Associations Law, as amended. In addition, it repealed Decree No. 1,269/02, as amended, and delegated to the PEN, through its oversight agencies, the power to set the date as from which those regulations will come into effect in relation to the financial statements that are presented to them.

Therefore, through Resolution No. 777/18, the CNV established the method to restate financial statements in current currency in accordance with IAS 29 for years/periods ended since December 31, 2018. Therefore, these unaudited consolidated financial statements are restated in current currency of June 30, 2021.

In relation to the inflation index to be used, according to Resolution No. 539/18, it was determined according to the Internal Wholesale Price Index (IWPI) until the year 2016, considering for the months of November and December 2015 the average variation of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires. Then, from January 2017, the National Consumer Price Index (National CPI) was considered.

The table below shows the evolution of such indexes in the last two years and as of June 30, 2021 and 2020 according to official statistics (INDEC) in accordance with Resolution No. 539/18 and the devaluation of the Argentine peso vs. de US dollar for the same years / periods:

NOTE 13 – DEFERRED INCOME TAX ASSETS/LIABILITIES

Amendments to the Income Tax

Pursuant to Law No. 27,430, as amended by Law No. 27,541, the statutory income tax rate in Argentina for fiscal years 2018, 2019 and 2020 was 30%, while for fiscal years beginning since January 1, 2021, the statutory income tax rate would be 25%. However, on June 16, 2021, Law No. 27,630 was published in the Official Gazette, and replaced the 25% statutory income tax rate by an increasing rate scale related to the taxable income of each taxpayer: 25% for annual taxable income of up to $5 million, 30% for the exceeding annual taxable income between $5 million and $50 million and 35% for annual taxable income exceeding $50 million. The annual taxable income scale will be adjusted annually starting in fiscal year 2022 according to the CPI of October of the prior year to the adjustment, with respect to the same month of the previous year. The Company has recognized the increase in the statutory income tax rate effects in the “Income tax expense” item of the consolidated income statement as of June 30, 2021.

In addition, Law No. 27,430 established a withholding tax regime on distributed dividends at a rate of 7% for profits generated during fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2018 up to and including fiscal year ending on December 31, 2020, and at a rate of 13% for profits generated during fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2021. Law No. 27, 630 also amended the last mentioned withholding tax rate, replacing it by 7% for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2021. Withholding tax regime applies only to shareholders who are Argentine resident individuals and to non-resident shareholders.

Income tax - Actions for recourse filed with the Tax Authority

Telecom filed during 2015 to 2020 actions for recourse with the AFIP to claim the full tax overpaid for fiscal years 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015 for a total amount of approximately $1,261 plus interest, under the argument that the lack of application of the income tax inflation adjustment is confiscatory.

On July 28, 2021 Telecom was notified of the resolution dated July 26, 2021 in which the AFIP has rejected the action for recourse corresponding to fiscal year 2013. Telecom will file an action for recourse before the National Court of First Instance.

A summary of recent developments as of June 30, 2021 related to the main contingencies and provisions of the Company is provided below:

1. Probable Contingent liabilities

Regulatory Authority’s Penalty Activities

Telecom Argentina is subject to various penalty procedures, in most cases promoted by the Regulatory Authority, for delays in the reparation and, to a lesser extent, for installation of service to fix-line customers. Although generally a penalty considered on an individual basis does not have a material effect on Telecom Argentina’s equity, there is a significant disproportion between the amounts of the penalty imposed by the Regulatory Authority and the revenue that the affected customer has generated to Telecom Argentina.

On March 3, 2021, the “Sanctions Regime applicable to ICT Services” was approved through ENACOM Resolution No. 221/21, ad referendum of ENACOM Board of Directors. The mentioned Resolution, among others, provides: (i) the penalty reference unit as the PBU-SBT value effective as of the date of payment, (ii) a maximum penalty equivalent to 50,000 PBU-SBT and a minimum penalty equivalent to 50 PBU-SBT, (iii) the publication of the penalties imposed in media and/or institutional website; and (iv) the possibility of imposing daily penalties for every day of non-compliance. The resolution was ratified by the ENACOM Board of Directors on April 28, 2021 through Synthesized Resolution No. 581/21.

The Company filed a spontaneous presentation to ENACOM communicating its complete adherence to the recourse filed by “Asociación Argentina de Televisión por Cable” (“ATVC”) against the provisions of that resolution, for considering that it is illegitimate and, consequently, that it should be revoked.

As of the date of these unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company is analyzing the impact of this new regulation.

2. Possible Contingencies

Resolution No. 50/10 and subsequent ones of the Secretariat of Domestic Trade of the Nation (“SCI”)

SCI Resolution No. 50/10 approved certain rules to commercialize pay television services. These rules provide that cable television operators must apply a formula to calculate their monthly subscription prices. The price arising from the application of the formula was to be informed to the Office of Business Loyalty (Dirección de Lealtad Comercial), having cable television operators to adjust such amount semi-annually and informing the result of such adjustment to such Office. The Company filed an administrative appeal against Resolution No. 50/10 requesting the suspension of its effects and its nullification.

F-24

Table of Contents

TELECOM ARGENTINA S.A.

Additionally, according to the decision issued on August 1, 2011 in judicial cause “LA CAPITAL CABLE S.A. V. Ministerio de Economía-Secretaría de Comercio Interior de la Nación”, the Federal Court of Appeals of the City of Mar del Plata has ordered the SCI to suspend the application of Resolution No. 50/10 with respect to all cable television licensees represented by ATVC. The preliminary injunction ordered by the Court of Mar del Plata was notified to the SCI and the Ministry of Economy on September 12, 2011 and became fully effective. The National Government filed an appeal against the decision issued by the Court of Mar del Plata. Such appeal was dismissed, for which the National Government filed a direct appeal to the Supreme Court, which was also dismissed.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, between March 2011 and October 2014 successive resolutions were published in the Official Gazette based on Resolution 50/10 that regulated the prices that Cablevision should charge in monthly basis fees to users. These resolutions were challenged and suspended due to the aforementioned injunction. However, each Resolution had a valid period of three to six months, with the last one expiring in October 2014.

In September 2014, the Court issued a decision in judicial cause “Municipalidad de Berazategui V. Cablevisión” ordering the remission of the cases relating to these resolutions to the jurisdiction of the Court of Mar del Plata, that had issued the decision on the collective action in favor of ATVC.

Currently, all judicial causes related to this issue are processed in the Federal Justice of Mar del Plata.

In April 2019, La Capital Cable S.A. was notified of the resolution issued by the Federal Court No. 2 of Mar del Plata in which declared the unconstitutionality of certain sections of a law on which the SCI was based for the issuance of Resolution No. 50/10 and the successive resolutions. The declaration of unconstitutionality means that these resolutions are not applicable to La Capital Cable and the companies grouped by ATVC. However, the National Government filed an appeal against that resolution.

On December 26, 2019, the Federal Court of Mar del Plata rejected the grievances of the National Government and confirmed the decision rendered by the court of first instance which declared the unconstitutionality of the sections of the law based on which the SCI issued Resolution No. 50/10 and the subsequent resolutions. The National Government filed an extraordinary appeal, which was granted on March 1, 2021.

The Company, with the assistance of its legal advisors, is analyzing the potential impacts related to this new appeal.

Under the LGS, the by-laws of the Company and rules and regulations of the CNV, a minimum of 5% of net income for the year in accordance with the statutory books, plus/less previous years’ adjustments and accumulated losses must be appropriated by resolution of the shareholders to a legal reserve until such reserve reaches 20% of the outstanding capital (common stock) plus inflation adjustment of common stock.

NOTE 26 – IMPACT OF CORONAVIRUS IN TELECOM

Since the beginning of 2020 and given the extent of the Covid-19 spread, several governments in the world implemented diverse measures to restrict the movement of the population and to content the spread of the virus.

In Argentina, the National Government ordered the Mandatory and Preventive Social Isolation from March 20, 2020, which only allowed the movement of individuals involved in the provision/production of essential services and products, among them, the provision of telecommunication services.

On November 9, 2020, the National Government ordered the Mandatory and Preventive Social Distancing, in which the provision of telecommunication services remained considered as “essential”.

During the second quarter of 2021, and as a result of the outbreak of Covid-19, the National Government determined new restrictions and measures aimed at controlling the community circulation of the virus throughout the national territory. The implemented measures do not directly affect Telecom's operation as the provision of telecommunication services remained considered as essential.

Telecom provides services that are critical for society as it connects people, homes, companies and governments. which became a priority during the pandemic. Services provided by the Company also allow small, medium and large companies to remain in business, and therefore contribute to sustain the country’s economy. Moreover, services provided by the Company, in this context, have allowed people to stay connected and entertained, as well as to work remotely and remain informed from their homes.

By the end of 2020, Argentina began the national vaccination campaign under the direct management of the National and Provincial Governments and the Government of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires. During the first quarter of 2021 the national vaccination campaign was aimed at the population in risk (older people) and health and education staff. During the second quarter of 2021, the national vaccination campaign included the remaining adult population.

ü External initiatives implemented by Telecom related to the health emergency

The pandemic has driven joint actions by domestic companies that gave essential support to face the health emergency. Telecom, as part of its permanent commitment to its community in response to the Covid-19 emergency, has taken several initiatives of great social value, which are disclosed in Note 29 to the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020, standing out the provision of connectivity for field hospitals and discounts in services for health and educational entities, that remain until today, in addition to benefits to customers to take even more advantage of the connection possibilities and to access to valuable information and to educational and entertainment content.

ü Internal initiatives implemented by Telecom related to the health emergency

On the other hand, the Company implemented a series of initiatives to ensure the continuity of its operations, safeguarding the health and the wellness of all the employees and of those that are part of the value chain which are disclosed in Note 29 to the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020. Among these initiatives stand out the creation of a Crisis Committee or the implementation of home office for more than 70% of its employees and the infrastructure works reinforcement, which provided networks with the capacity required to continue operating without any inconvenience.

ü Main Accounting Impacts

As of the date of these unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company has not experienced any significant impacts on its results as a consequence of the pandemic. Despite the several difficulties that caused a slowdown or complexities in our operations; we continue operating and we expect to continue without any inconvenience.

In accordance with IAS 36, the Company’s Management has assessed if there were indicators of impairment of the recoverable value of its fixed assets. Even though the pandemic could have a significant impact in the economic activity in Argentina, what could be an impairment trigger, according to mentioned assessment, no negative impacts have been identified in the capacity of generation of future cash flows of the Company as a consequence of the pandemic, as the volume of operations is expected to remain stable.

On the other hand, the Company’s Management estimates that the deterioration of the economic situation of the country represents an increase in trade receivables credit risk at the end of the reporting period.

TELECOM ARGENTINA S.A.

Telecom and its subsidiaries have enough liquidity, bank credit lines and a notes program that allow them to finance their short-term obligations and the investment plan in addition to the projected operating cash flows.

It is estimated that, during the second half of 2021, Argentina will continue with a mixed presence and virtual schedule in a large part of the industrial, commercial and educational activities and whose evolution will depend on the health scenario. The ultimate effects of Covid-19 and its impact on the global and local economy are still unknown. Governments may issue stricter measures, which cannot be predicted.

The Company’s Management will continue to develop actions that minimize the potential impairment on its results, as a result of these situations, maintaining a level of service and customer satisfaction, and seeking to maximize the precautions in social management in this context.

The Company's Board of Directors and the Crisis Committee continue monitoring the evolution of the situation and taking the necessary measures to preserve human life and the sustainability of Telecom's businesses.

NOTE 27 – RECENT DEVELOPMENTS CORRESPONDING TO THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 2021

Decree No. 690/20 - Amendment to the LAD

On August 22, 2020, the PEN issued Decree No. 690/20 (“DNU No. 690/20”) amending the LAD. DNU No. 690/20 declared ICT services (which includes fixed and mobile telephony services, cable television and Internet –as well as access to telecommunications networks for and between licensees as “Essential and Strategic Competition Public Services”, and empowered ENACOM to ensure accessibility.

DNU No. 690/20 further established that the prices of the Essential and Strategic Competition Public ICT Services, the prices of those services provided in accordance with the Universal Service and the prices of those services determined by ENACOM for public interest reasons, shall be regulated by ENACOM.

Moreover, DNU No. 690/20 established that ENACOM is the agency responsible for the enactment of any regulation related to the ICT’s Compulsory Universal Telecommunication Service (“PBU”).

Finally, DNU No. 690/20 suspended any price increases or changes set or announced by the ICT’s licensees from July 31, 2020 to December 31, 2020.

DNU No. 690/20 was ratified by the Argentine Congress under Law No. 26,122 and regulated through ENACOM Resolutions No. 1,466/20 and 1,467/20.

Resolution No. 1,466/20 allowed ICT licensees providing Internet access services, subscription broadcasting services through physical, radio-electric or satellite link, fixed telephony services and mobile telecommunications services -in all cases in their different and respective modalities- to increase retail prices for services up to 5% during January 2021. Licensees must consider the prices effective as of July 31, 2020 as the price of reference for such increase. Such Resolution also provided that ICT Services Licensees may request a higher increase on an exceptional basis in accordance with the provisions of Section 48 of the LAD.

Resolution No. 1,467/20 regulated the PBU provided by DNU No. 690/20 for the different services provided by ICT licensees, namely:

·		PBU-SBT: Compulsory Universal Provision of Basic Fixed Telephony Service;
·		PBU-SCM: Compulsory Universal Provision of Basic Mobile Communication Service;
·		PBU-I: Compulsory Universal Provision of Basic Internet Access Value Added Service;
·		PBU-TP: Compulsory Universal Basic Provision of subscription television services by physical or radio-electric or satellite link.

Resolution No. 1,467/20 further determined the price and the characteristics of each PBU and its beneficiaries. Licensees are under the obligation to report on a monthly basis the number of customers subscribed to the different PBU. Finally, Resolution No. 1,467/20 also imposed different reporting obligations to be fulfilled before the ENACOM on the licensees that hold registration for subscription broadcasting services by physical or radio electric link and on licensees of subscription television audiovisual communication services by satellite link.

On the other hand, the Company ordered a price recomposition since January 2021, failing to transfer to the price of its services, the inflation accumulated in the period March-December 2020, as a result of different measures provided by the PEN. Additionally, the Company initiated legal proceedings before the Federal Court of Appeals on Administrative Litigation Matters challenging the constitutionality of DNU No. 690/20 and the aforementioned ENACOM Resolutions and requesting a preliminary injunction that would suspend its application. The preliminary injunction was denied on January 29, 2021 and the Company appealed the court’s decision.

TELECOM ARGENTINA S.A.

On April 30, 2021, the Chamber of the Federal Court of Appeals on Administrative Litigation Matters decided to accept the Company’s appeal, revoke the origin instance court’s decision and, consequently, grant the preliminary injunction requested, ordering the suspension of the effects of sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 of DNU No. 690/20 and resolutions provided as a consequence and their non-applicability to the Company for a period of six months. As supported by the preliminary injunction granted, the Company ordered a new price recomposition in June 2021.

In reaching its decision, the Court considered, that the “configuration of circumstances prima facie lead to serious and founded questioning of Decree 690/2020's reasonability standard and legitimacy and of ENACOM's resolutions adopted as a consequence, due to the direct adverse effects they have on Telecom Argentina's property rights, which derive from Information and Communication Technology services provision, under a free competition system, ruled, authorized and granted (depending on the case), by the National State itself”.

The National Government and ENACOM filed extraordinary legal proceedings against the mentioned decision of the Federal Court of Appeals on Administrative Litigation Matters, which were denied on June 18, 2021 through the decision of Chamber II decision the Federal Court of Appeals on Administrative Litigation Matters.

On June 29, 2021, the PEN and ENACOM filed legal proceedings before the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice. As of the date of these unaudited consolidated financial statements, the mentioned legal proceedings have not been attended.

The Company, with the assistance of its legal advisors, is analyzing the actions available to the Company in order to protect its legal rights.

Preliminary injunction requested by “Asociación Civil de Usuarios Bancarios Argentinos” (“ACUBA”)

On January 27, 2021, the Company was served with notice of a preliminary injunction granted by the Civil and Commercial Court No. 10 of Mar del Plata obtained by ACUBA in the aforementioned case, which ordered the Company to roll back the tariffs of broadcasting services subscriptions, Internet access services, fixed telephony services and mobile telecommunications services to those of December 2020, which could only be increased up to 5% as authorized by ENACOM, and maintain such tariffs until any modification is resolved. Telecom challenged the preliminary injunction for lack of jurisdiction, and requested that the resolution granting the preliminary injunction be declared nulled. Telecom further requested that the preliminary injunction be lifted. A decision from the court remains pending as of the date of these unaudited consolidated financial statements. The Company argued that a preliminary injunction obtained by a representative of the industry of the Province of Córdoba from the federal courts of the province expressly suspended the application of DNU No. 690/20, Decree No. 311/20 and prohibited ENACOM from issuing any subsequent resolutions.

The Company, with the assistance of its legal advisors, is analyzing the actions that may be necessary in order to protect its rights.

Preliminary injunction requested by a representative of the industry of the Province of Córdoba

On February 2, 2021, the Company was informed by the Asociación Argentina de Televisión por Cable (“ATVC”), that a preliminary injunction requested by a representative of the cable television industry was granted by a Federal Court of the Province of Córdoba, that ordered the suspension of DNU No. 690/20, of Decree No. 311/20 and of all measures adopted as a result of those decrees. The court also ordered the PEN and the ENACOM to abstain from issuing or pursuing any subsequent measures based on such decrees, until a final court decision is rendered.

ATVC also informed that, pursuant to the court’s indications, the regulatory authority should refrain from issuing regulations related to DNU No. 690/20 or enforcing the regulations previously issued, which are generally suspended.

Preliminary injunction “Catrie Televisora Color S.R.L. c/ Estado Nacional s/ Acción meramente declarativa de inconstitucionalidad”

On March 31, 2021, the Company was informed by ATVC, that in the case Catrie Televisora Color S.R.L. c/ Estado Nacional s/ Acción meramente declarativa de inconstitucionalidad” (File No. 858/21), pending before the Federal Court of Córdoba No. 1, ATVC requested joint litigation, under the terms of Art. 90 inc. 2 of the National Civil and Commercial Procedure Code, requiring collective legitimacy, on behalf of the associated companies, and required the extension of the preliminary injunction issued in such case.

Likewise, on that date ATVC was notified of the resolution of the Federal Court of Córdoba No. 1 of March 30, 2021, which provided, in File. No. 858/21, the following summary: 1) grant the request for intervention of a third party made by ATVC; 2) direct the process as a collective process; 3) delimit the class affected to the cable and ICT services industries that are associated with ATVC; and 4) order the National Government the suspension of DNU No. 690/20, as well as all measures adopted as a result of that decree.

9. Outlook

The COVID 19 health emergency complex scenario continues presenting challenges all around the world in 2021. Although large-scale vaccination plans advanced in the first half of 2021 in Argentina and in the rest of the world, the pandemic continuity - due to the threat of new variants of the virus – continues presenting a complex panorama for this year. Not only a high commitment from all sectors of society will continue to be key, but also a greater articulation between public and private activity will be key, to face the economic and health scenario in the coming months.

The impact of the epidemiological situation on the world’s macro-economy was particularly aggravated in our country by the recessive effects generated by the economic paralysis resulting from isolation. Health uncertainty and price tensions create a scenario that is far from a recovery one. Additionally, there is a need to reactivate the economy in an electoral year in which a greater monetary expansion policy is expected.

In this sense, the economic scenario has forced us to strongly focus our management on achieving operational efficiencies to maintain growth levels in line with the investments undertaken, not only to grow but also to maintain the quality of service that we provide to our more than 29 million customers.

Telecom’s economic-financial results, as those of other companies operating in the country, reflect the impact of the inflationary processes and exchange rate fluctuations, especially considering that our main source of income is in pesos, while our industry requires intensive dollarized investments for the deployment of infrastructure and development of systems.

In addition to the complex macroeconomic context in Argentina, there is greater uncertainty for ICT services companies arising from the issuance of Decree No. 690/20, whereby the PEN declared that ICT services are considered as public services provided on a competitive basis.

Telecom, as well as the whole ICT services industry, consider that this change of rules in the regulatory framework of the industry is harmful. This arbitrary and unnecessary regulation is subject of administrative and legal actions driven by various participants of the industry in order to defend not only the operations of the thousands of companies of the industry, but also the sources of quality work of the hundreds thousands employees, the quality of service we provide to millions of customers who increasingly need more and better connectivity to carry out their daily activities, and for the entire value chain. Because every day is more evident that the digital economy is the key to the recovery and development of Argentina in the coming years.

In the last months, different courts ordered the suspension of Decree No. 690/20 and all the resolutions issued subsequently and derived from it. The preliminary injunctions that are repeated in various parts of the country cover virtually the entire ICT industry, both large operators and SMEs. In this way, it was ratified that the entire ICT industry must have the capacity to set its trade policies and prices. Maintaining and encouraging competition instead of setting artificial barriers is the only and best way for users to continue accessing to more and better services.

However, we consider essential to deepen the path towards cooperation between private and public sectors and civil organizations, to overcome this regulatory contingency, in order to continue expanding the digitalization possibilities for the society as a whole, which requires a high commitment of investment that companies have been sustaining uninterruptedly for years.

In Telecom we maintain our vision of developing an ecosystem of platforms leveraged on connectivity and supported by a digital and cultural transformation process focused on the experience of our customers, which we have given an extraordinary boost during the pandemic.

Our sense of permanent innovation drives us not only to maintain current services, but also to expand towards new solutions, enablers and platforms that empower people’s lives and organizations. We are building a more attractive brand for new digital talents, fundamental in the development of services related to the digital economy, and a new work experience for Telecom’s 23,000 employees.

In the same way, we managed to ensure the continuity of the Company’s operations, maintaining not only the quality of the service and satisfaction level of our customers, but also minimizing the possible negative impact on the Company’s results.
