local currency

the margin was 34% demonstrating our financial discipline while investing in
growth opportunities
Delivering growth across four strategic pillars:

  · In Q1, our mobile data business continued to display strong growth with over
700k additions, improving penetration of mobile data within our mobile customer
base to 20.9%, up from 15.1% in March 2013.
  · In Cable & Digital Media, the growth accelerated compared to Q4 13 at 12.8%
in local currency helped by the launch of “Tigo Star” and “Tigo Sports”, our new
cable and broadband service and TV channels. RGU per household increased by 3.5%
to 1.40.

our customers in the markets in which we offer the service. In Q1 we added over
1 million new customers, the strongest performers were Tanzania, El Salvador and
Chad.
  · Our Online investments continued to expand across Africa and Latin America
as we saw several ventures being launched both in new countries and Millicom
mobile markets. We look forward to MTN joining this journey in Africa as we wait
for final regulatory approvals. We expect the deal to be completed as planned in
Q2 2014.

Financial Highlights

corporate costs the EBITDA reached $478 million, a 34.0% margin.

Significant events

  · Starting from Q1 2014, Millicom fully consolidates Tigo Guatemala, while
Mauritius and the Online businesses (in Africa and Latin America) are now equity
accounted.
  · On January 30, 2014, Tigo Guatemala issued a 10 year $800 million bond. The
proceeds from the bond were mainly used to refinance local and Millicom
corporate debt. The bond carries a coupon of 6.875%.
  · In February 11, 2014, Millicom announced the appointment of Tim Pennington
as Chief Financial Officer. Tim will be joining in June 2014.
  ·  In February 2014 Millicom launched Tigo Sports in Paraguay followed by Tigo
Star in March 2014.

2014 guidance reiterated

Under the new consolidation scope(i) and at constant exchange rates, we expect
revenue growth to accelerate at a mid to high single digit rate (versus
comparable 5.5% in 2013). On a reported basis and at constant exchange rates, we
expect revenue growth to exceed 15%. EBITDA margin will stabilize around the mid
-30s% mark (after corporate costs). In 2014, we expect a capex to revenue ratio
of around 19%, excluding spectrum and license acquisitions.

EBITDA Margin improvement from the full consolidation of Guatemala will be
offset in 2014 by accelerating investments in growth opportunities in Africa and
South America.

Delivering growth across all regions, all business units

“This quarter’s results demonstrate that we are delivering on our growth
strategy in all regions with revenue rising by over 8%. Our investment in this
growth is having the expected impact on our margins.

The turnaround in Africa continued with double-digit growth for the first time
in eight quarters and South America maintained its strong performance, led by
Colombia.

We transformed our cable business further with the launch of Tigo Star, the Tigo
Sports channel and the start today of our first DTH service in Latin America.

Strong mobile data take-up is highlighted by our smartphones sales tripling in
Q1 compared to Q1 2013 and content partnership with Facebook in Tanzania.

We have delivered on all four growth pillars with MFS just launched in Senegal,
completing the lineup for Africa, and our online partnerships continued to
expand.

There are challenges ahead.  Foreign exchange pressure continues, with
competitive intensity not easing and the constant threat of further regulation.

As for earnings, we are in line with guidance on margins as we continue this
crucial but carefully controlled investment phase. We are determined to grow our
EBITDA as we diversify into a true digital lifestyle company over the long term”

Hans-Holger Albrecht
President and CEO,
Millicom International Cellular S.A.
