5 Financial instruments and net debt

Swisscom aims not to exceed a net debt of 1.9 times EBITDA (operating income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation). Exceeding this limit temporarily is permitted. As at 31 December 2017, the net debt/EBITDA ratio was 1.7. Net debt comprises financial liabilities less cash and cash equivalents, current financial assets and non-current certificates of deposit, and derivative financial instruments for financing.
