Oct 21 Poland's largest telecom operator Orange Polska flagged dividend payout a half lower after it won new mobile broadband frequencies at a cost of 3.2 billion zlotys ($848 million), the group said on Wednesday.
The French Orange's unit said it might offer a payout of 0.25 zlotys per share in 2016, compared to the 0.50-zloty dividend it paid this year.
The group said its third-quarter net profit came in at 110 million zlotys, coming in slightly above analysts expectations of 104 million. ($1 = 3.7742 zlotys) (Reporting by Adrian Krajewski, Editing by Gabriela Baczynska)
