    Telecom Egypt sees flat revenue in 2012

    CAIRO, Feb 23 (Reuters) - Landline monopoly Telecom

    Egypt expects its revenues to be little changed in

    2012 and aims to maintain profitability at a level similar to

    last year as it continues a cost-cutting programme, its finance

    chief said.

    The company earlier reported a 6.8 percent decline in net

    profit and a 3.2 percent drop in revenue last year when Egypt's

    economy was thrown into turmoil by a popular uprising.

    "We are still optimistic on 2012," CFO Hassan Helmy told

    Reuters. "We expect flat revenue and to still maintain our

    EBITDA margin within the mid-40s range and for capital

    expenditure we will be spending 1-1.2 billion Egyptian pounds."
