MTN emphasized that these adjustments align with its commitment to comply with regulatory requirements.
The company was declared a Dominant/Significant Market Power (SMP) in the Voice, Data, and SMS markets by the National Communications Authority (NCA) in June 2020.
Notably, MTN Ghana stands out as the sole profitable telecom company in the country, as revealed in its 2023 Q3 report on the Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE).
The company posted a profit after tax of GH¢2.8 billion, marking a substantial 32.0 per cent increase over the same period last year.
Despite its financial success, MTN Ghana has faced challenges with its subscriber base due to the impact of the National Communications Authority’s (NCA) directive on SIM disconnections.
The company reported a 9.3 per cent year-on-year decrease, bringing its subscriber base to 25.8 million, making it the telecom leader with the largest subscriber base in the country.
