Free cash flow increased year-on-year by CHF 243 million to CHF 756 million, mainly due to higher operating free cash flow. Operating free cash flow rose by CHF 224 million to CHF 1,012 million. This increase was mainly due to the payment of the Competition Commission penalty as part of the ongoing proceedings regarding broadband services in the prior year. Swisscom does not consider the sanction justified and has lodged an appeal with the Federal Court. Swisscom paid the penalty of CHF 186 million in the first quarter of 2016, as no suspensive effect was granted. Excludingthis payment, operating free cash flow rose by CHF 38 million versus the previous year, due primarily to lower capital expenditure. Capital expenditure decreased by CHF 136 million or 11.4% to CHF 1,057 million compared to the previous year, largely due to delays in network expansion by Swisscom Switzerland. In the second quarter of 2017, the Swisscom pension fund (comPlan) received a one-time payment of CHF 50 million as a result of the regulatory changes communicated in October 2016.

In the second quarter of 2017, Swisscom issued a debenture bond with a nominal amount of CHF 350 million. The coupon amounts to 0.375% and has a term of 10 years. The funds raised were used to repay existing debts.
