trismik/FinRAG huggingface dataset:
The UK and Ireland business-to-business market remains challenging. The main headwind we face is the decline in traditional calls and lines where we have a relatively high market share. The IP Voice market is significantly more fragmented, with a large number of providers, and we are focused on expanding our share in this growing market.
The mobile market remains competitive and we continue to see pressure on pricing. While overall growth in the broadband market is limited, we are seeing good demand for our premium products such as fibre and 4G Assure. Newer areas such as the Internet of Things, Cloud, SDWAN and security remain good opportunities for us over the longer term.
Adjusted a revenue decreased 5% for the year mainly due to the ongoing decline of fixed voice revenue. We continue to see a steeper than expected reduction in calls per fixed line as usage moves to mobile and IP. We continue to sell less low margin equipment and also experienced ongoing declines in some of our other legacy products such as private circuits. This was partially offset by growth in IP, Mobile and Networking. We’re also continuing to see encouraging growth in messaging volumes in Ventures.
Adjusted a operating costs reduced 6%, helped by labour cost efficiencies from our cost transformation programmes. Adjusteda EBITDA decreased 4%, with our lower cost base more than offset by the reduction in revenue.
Capital expenditure increased 2% and normalised free cash flowb decreased 7%, reflecting the reduction in EBITDA and the higher capital expenditure.
The Retail order intake decreased 15% to £2.9bn for the year due to the signing of a large contract in Republic of Ireland in the prior year. The Wholesale order intake declined 22% to £1.0bn after 2017/18 benefitted from a number of large deals, including the timing of some contract renewals.
a Adjusted measures exclude specific items, as explained in the Additional Information on page 185. b Free cash flow after net interest paid, before pension deficit payments (including the cash tax benefit of pension deficit payments) and specific items. d Enterprise comparatives have been re-presented to reflect the bringing together of our Business and Public Sector and Wholesale and Ventures units into a single Enterprise unit, as well as the transfer of Northern Ireland Networks from Enterprise to Openreach.

Operating profit/loss
Our operating profit in 2019 was EUR 485 million, a change of EUR 544 million, compared to an operating loss of EUR 59 million in 2018. The change in operating result was primarily due to lower selling, general and administrative expenses, research and development expenses and a net positive fluctuation in other operating income and expenses, partially offset by lower gross profit. Our operating margin in 2019 was 2.1%, compared to approximately breakeven in 2018.

SHARE INFORMATION
On December 31, 2019, the total number of issued common shares of ASMI amounted to 51,297,394 compared to 56,297,394 at year-end 2018. The decrease was the result of the cancellation of 5 million treasury shares that was approved by the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (AGM) on May 20, 2019, and became effective on July 23, 2019.
On December 31, 2019, we had 48,866,220 outstanding common shares excluding 2,431,174 treasury shares. This compared to 49,318,898 outstanding common shares and 6,978,496 treasury shares at year-end 2018. Besides the cancellation of 5 million treasury shares in July 2019, the change in the number of treasury shares in 2019 was the result of approximately 951,000 repurchased shares and approximately 498,000 treasury shares that were used as part of share based payments.
On December 31, 2019, 48,583,340 of the outstanding common shares were registered with our transfer agent in the Netherlands, ABN AMRO Bank NV; and 282,880 were registered with our transfer agent in the United States, Citibank, NA, New York.
On February 25, 2020, ASMI announced that it will propose to the AGM 2020 the cancellation of 1.5 million treasury shares, as the number of 2.4 million treasury shares held at that date was more than sufficient to cover our outstanding options and restricted/performance shares.
