Cash and cash equivalents fell by MAD 428million in 2017.This drop reflects the decline in cash flow from investing activities in 2017; in particular the acquisitions of tangible and intangible assets partially offset by the 10.6% increase in cash flow from operating activities and improved cash flow from financing activities.

This increase of MAD 1,334 million is mainly due to the change of working capital that essentially comes from Morocco.

NET CASH USED IN INVESTING ACTIVITIES Net cash flow from investing activities amounted to an outflow of MADb-8,061bmillion, a cash flow decrease of MADb1,966bmillion versus 2016. This decline was mainly due to the mismatch during the period between reimbursements to equipment suppliers and new asset acquisitions, primarily of network equipment.

NET CASH FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES In 2017, the net cash flow fromoperating activities amounted toMAD 14,911 million, an increase of MAD 1,428 million compared to 2016.
