※ The decline in net addition of mobile subscribers in November 2016 was mainly due to the full implementation of real-name registration by the end of November, as required by the regulator. The Company terminated services for those subscribers who did not complete real-name registration, impacting the net addition of mobile subscribers. However, the full implementation of real-name registration would not have material impact on mobile service revenue.
After the commencement of 4G service nationwide at the beginning of 2015, the Company has been proactively upgrading its 2G/3G subscribers to 4G service, optimizing the subscriber structure and increasing 4G penetration continuously. To align with the Company's strategic focus on 4G in its mobile development, and further enhance the essentiality of disclosed information, the Company would only disclose 4G terminal user and mobile subscriber figures and not to disclose 3G/4G subscriber figure.
