4 February 2016
For the three months ended 31 December 2015
Information in the following presentation relating to the price at
which relevant investments have been bought or sold in the past or
the yield on such investments cannot be relied upon as a guide to
the future performance of such investments. This presentation
does not constitute an offering of securities or otherwise constitute
an invitation or inducement to any person to underwrite, subscribe
for or otherwise acquire or dispose of securities in any company
within the Group.
The presentation contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the US Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
which are subject to risks and uncertainties because they relate to
future events. Some of the factors which may cause actual results
to differ from these forward-looking statements are discussed on

Disclaimer
The presentation also contains non-GAAP financial information
which the Group’s management believes is valuable in
understanding the performance of the Group or the Group’s
businesses. However, non-GAAP information is not uniformly
defined by all companies and therefore it may not be comparable
with similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies,
including those in the Group’s industry. Although these measures
are important in the assessment and management of the
business, they should not be viewed in isolation or as
replacements for, but rather as complementary to, the
comparable GAAP measures.

third parties independently, including Vodafone Red, Smartpass, M-Pesa, and the launch of a number
of additional features; growth in customers and usage; expectations regarding spectrum licence
acquisitions, including anticipated new 3G and 4G availability and the customer uptake associated
therewith; and expectations regarding, EBITDA, free cash flow, capital expenditure, and foreign
exchange rate movements.
Forward-looking statements are sometimes, but not always, identified by their use of a date in the
future or such words as “will”, “anticipates”, “aims”, “could”, “may”, “should”, “expects”, “believes”,
“intends”, “plans” or “targets” (including in their negative form). By their nature, forward-looking
statements are inherently predictive, speculative and involve risk and uncertainty because they relate
to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. There are a number
of factors that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed
or implied by these forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, the
following: changes in economic or political conditions in markets served by operations of the Group
that would adversely affect the level of demand for its mobile services; greater than anticipated
competitive activity, from both existing competitors and new market entrants, which could require
changes to the Group’s pricing models, lead to customer churn, affect the relative appeal of the
Group’s products and services as compared to those of its competitors or make it more difficult for the
Group to acquire new customers; the impact of investment in network capacity and the deployment
of new technologies, or the rapid obsolescence of existing technology; higher than expected costs or
capital expenditures; slower than expected customer growth and reduced customer retention;
changes in the spending patterns of new and existing customers and the possibility that new products
and services offered by the Group will not be commercially accepted or do not perform according to
expectations; the Group’s ability to expand its spectrum position or renew or obtain necessary licences,
including for spectrum; the Group’s ability to achieve cost savings; the Group’s ability to execute its
strategy in fibre deployment, network expansion, new product and service roll-outs, mobile data,
enterprise and broadband and in emerging markets; changes in foreign exchange rates, including, in
particular, changes in the exchange rate of pounds sterling, the currency in which the Group prepares
its financial statements, to the euro, the US dollar and other currencies in which the Group generates
its revenue, as well as changes in interest rates; the Group’s ability to realise benefits from entering into
partnerships or joint ventures and entering into service franchising and brand licensing; unfavourable
consequences to the Group of making and integrating acquisitions or disposals; changes to the
regulatory framework in which the Group operates, including possible action by regulators in markets
in which the Group operates or by the EU to regulate rates the Group is permitted to charge; the impact
of legal or other proceedings against the Group or other companies in the mobile telecommunications
industry; loss of suppliers; or disruption of supply chains or unfavourable developments in the
availability or prices of commodities and raw materials; developments in the Group’s financial
condition, earnings and distributable funds and other factors that the Board takes into account when
determining levels of dividends; the Group’s ability to satisfy working capital and other requirements
through access to bank facilities, funding in the capital markets and its operations; changes in
statutory tax rates or profit mix which might impact the Group’s weighted average tax rate; and/or
changes in tax legislation or final resolution of open tax issues which might impact the Group’s tax
payments or effective tax rate.
Furthermore, a review of the reasons why actual results and developments may differ materially from
the expectations disclosed or implied within forward-looking statements can be found under the
headings “Risk Factors” and “Other Information – Forward-looking statements” in our half year
financial report for the six months ended 30 September 2015 which can be found on the Group’s
website (vodafone.com/investor). All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements
attributable to the Company, to any member of the Group or to any persons acting on their behalf are
expressly qualified in their entirety by the factors referred to above. No assurances can be given that
the forward-looking statements in or made in connection with this presentation will be realised.
Subject to compliance with applicable law and regulations, Vodafone does not intend to update these
forward-looking statements and does not undertake any obligation to do so.
