...first quarter ended 30 September, 2012.

Commenting on the first quarter, Michel de Rosen, Eutelsat CEO, said, “Eutelsat delivered solid first quarter 2012-2013 revenue growth. The strong performance of Video Applications reflects the rapid uptake of additional capacity made available last year to serve the dynamic regions of the Middle East and North Africa. Data and ValueAdded Services revenues were underpinned by the growing contribution from Value-Added Services, up 44 percent in the quarter. The acquisition of EUTELSAT 172A was finalized at the end of September, significantly expanding our coverage of the AsiaPacific region ,which is forecast to experience continued high growth."
