Vodafone Group PLC (LSE:VOD) reported underlying profits and cashflow in line with expectations but said both could be lower in the coming year due to inflation. The FTSE 100 telecoms group posted final results that showed a 10% decline in reported profit before tax to €3.95bn for the year ended 31 March, though underlying earnings (EBITDAaL, which also excludes leases) rose 5% to €15.2bn on revenue up 4% to €45.6bn.

Tuesday's spotlight is likely to be fixed on Vodafone Group PLC (LSE:VOD) as it rings in with full-year results on the back of the telecoms group making several headlines in recent weeks. Just days after reports that the FTSE 100-listed group and Three owner CK Hutchison have rekindled talks about combining their UK businesses, at the weekend it emerged that a UAE-based Emirates Telecommunications Group (e&) has become its new largest investor, with a US$4.4bn purchase of a 9.8% stake.

Vodafone Group PLC's (LSE:VOD) new 9.8% shareholder says it is not looking to exert any control or influence, but JP Morgan said it does not seem likely this will remain the case for long. The US$4.4bn arrival of the Emirates Telecoms Group, known as e&, may have been “a surprising turn of events”, JPM analysts said in a note on Monday, but at face value “seems nothing more than an opportunistic move from a company with a net cash position, and a clearly stated M&A driven agenda”.
