** Q2 revenues of 458 mln euros rose 3.2% year-on-year but were 3.4% behind Bloomberg consensus, J.P. Morgan says
** CaixaBI also says that Q2 net income recorded a negative trend due to drop in non-recurring gains and extraordinary expenses as a result of IT unit expansion
** JPM expects 2025 to be much more challenging for NOS and sees rival Digi’s entrance as a risk, adding that NOS has benefitted from CPI-linked pricing which will be lower in 2025
