Update to Vodafone country-by-country taxation and total contribution to public finances overview
Vodafone today published an update to its voluntary disclosure of the Groups taxation and total contribution to public finances on a country-by-country basis to include financial information for the year ended 31 March 2015.
The report published today provides an updated overview of the Groups total contribution to public finances in each of its countries of operation, including direct and indirect cash taxes paid as well as non-taxation-based government revenue contributions such as spectrum fees.
In 2014/15, Vodafone contributed more than £9.3 billion in cash to public finances in the Groups countries of operation compared to £14.8 billion in 2013/14. The overall reduction in Vodafones contribution is mainly as a result of the sale of the Groups US interests during 2013/14. In the UK, Vodafone paid £320 million in direct taxes in 2014/15.
Vodafone is one of very few multinational companies worldwide to make a voluntary disclosure on a country-by-country, actual cash paid basis, including details and explanations of tax payments and key taxation matters.
The updated information can be found online at: www.vodafone.com/sustainability/tax2015

Pioneering new ambulance taxi service could help save at least 2,700 lives of pregnant mothers and babies in rural Tanzania each year
· First-of-its-kind service launched in districts in Tanzania where maternal and infant mortality rates believed to be among highest in the world
· Districts Sengerema and Shinyanga are about the size of Belgium, have a population of at least two million and only 10 ambulances
· Vodafones M-Pesa used to pay taxi drivers when high-risk expectant mothers, many of whom are teenagers, are brought to hospital
Many hundreds of high-risk pregnant women in an area of Tanzania around the size of Belgium are not surviving pregnancy or are losing their babies as there is no means of getting them to hospital.
In response, a pioneering new toll-free emergency line has been launched by the Vodafone Foundation - alongside its NGO partners Pathfinder International and Touch Foundation and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). The emergency line equivalent to 112 in Europe, 911 in the US and 999 in the UK - could help save around 225 womens and babies lives a month, and will see a network of 100 taxi drivers responding to emergency calls, taking pregnant women on what is often a three-hour journey to reach the nearest hospital. Once women arrive at hospital, the emergency taxi drivers are paid using Vodafones mobile payment service M-Pesa. A trial of the taxi service late last year in an area of Sengerema saved the lives of 323 women and babies.
Previously, there was no way for many pregnant women with serious complications, many of who are teenagers, to get to hospital in the districts of Sengerema and Shinyanga. Despite a population of two million people, only 10 ambulances service the expansive area, leading to large numbers of maternal and infant deaths.
As part of the wider programme, a network of 250 community health workers in Sengerema and Shinyanga have been taught Tanzanias newborn and child health curriculum, and an additional 209 health workers have been trained in life-saving emergency obstetric and newborn care. Touch Foundation helped improve facilities in hospitals, including building two theatres for Caesarean sections.
A mobile application has also been developed for the community health workers, which lists more than 10,000 pregnant women and identifies those who are high risk cases.
Pathfinder International, whose role in the partnership involved working with community health workers and health centres, has separately worked with WeCareSolar to install solar suitcases in 58 facilities for provision of power, making night deliveries possible.
The Vodafone Foundation has been supporting maternal health in Tanzania since 2010. As part of the Vodafone Foundations Connecting for Good programme, Vodafone partnered with the Comprehensive Community Based Rehabilitation Tanzania (CCBRT) and various NGOs to help cure women who suffer from obstetric fistula. Thanks to the partnership and the use of M-Pesa - CCBRT uses M-Pesa to transfer funds for a patients travel to hospital hundreds of women are now receiving the treatment they desperately need. The total number of surgeries increased from 268 in 2010 when M-Pesa was first introduced into the patient referral process to more than 3,000 in 2016, making it the largest fistula repair programme in the world. The maternal health programme in Tanzania is part-funded by USAID and the Swiss Re Foundation.
Vodafone Foundation Director Andrew Dunnett, said: Our maternal health programme is another example of the transformative power of technology. Since 2010, our text to treatment programme has benefitted more than 3,000 women living with debilitating maternal condition obstetric fistula. Now, this pioneering new service will provide a much-needed lifeline for thousands of high-risk pregnant women in Tanzania without access to emergency healthcare.
Pathfinder International President and CEO Purnima Mane, said: Our work in Tanzania is a true testament to our efforts to create better health outcomes for women worldwide. Through our partnership with Vodafone, we have been able to reach pregnant women with behaviour change interventions and appointment remindersas well as provide health facilities with everything from trainings and services to solar lighting. As a result, we have reached more than 15,000 women and have seen a 53 per cent increase year over year in facility-based deliveries.We are looking forward to this next component of our program and the support it will provide to pregnant women in Tanzania especially those deemed high risk.
USAID Tanzania Acting Health Officer Director Bethany Haberer, said: We can all be proud of the progress that is in evidence today, yet much work remains to be done. Having achieved remarkable healthcare results in Sengerema, we need to consider the elements of this programme that can be replicated, taken to scale, and sustained - all with increased support from the Government of Tanzania.

Vodafone and Philips join forces for connected lighting and smart city services
Frankfurt, Germany - Vodafone announced today a new agreement to become a global Internet of Things (IoT) managed connectivity partner for Philips Lighting, a Royal Philips (NYSE: PHG, AEX: PHIA) company and the global leader in lighting. Under the agreement, the two companies will enable city authorities worldwide to implement smart street lighting systems which will be connected wirelessly, saving energy and making maintenance easier and more efficient.
The Philips CityTouch street lighting management system will use Vodafones world-leading machine-to-machine (M2M) network to connect individual light points. Every connected street lamp will contain a Vodafone M2M SIM. City authorities can then monitor and manage lighting through a user-friendly and highly flexible system while engineers will be able to check performance, identify faults and control the lighting remotely.
The joint offering allows city authorities to create an infrastructure that is easily scalable, and will be able to support other smart city applications in future.
Vodafone M2M Director, Erik Brenneis, said: Lighting plays a key role in the smart city. Our agreement with Philips will see this technology transforming cities across the world backed by Vodafones world-leading innovation, technologies and networks.
Bill Bien, SVP, Head of Strategy and Marketing, at Philips Lighting added: Just less than 12% of the worlds street lights are LED and less than 2% are connected. We are at the start of a new era which will see highly energy efficient connected street lighting become the backbone of most smart cities. Robust, reliable wireless connectivity will help make this happen, linking streetlights with sensors, devices and management systems. By partnering with Vodafone we can work together to take light beyond illumination, helping to make cities more energy efficient, safer and ultimately more liveable.
About Philips CityTouch:
CityTouch is an end-to-end street lighting management system that integrates connected devices and specialized services to transform cities lighting operations. Increasingly, stand-alone LED street lights are being connected and made intelligent using Philips CityTouch Ready street luminaires or by adding a Philips CityTouch connector node to existing street luminaires. Such connectivity offers a number of benefits:
· Typically additional 30-40% energy savings above the savings made by using LED lighting, as the connected lights can be dimmed or turned up as required the right light level, at the right time, in the right place.
· Reduced maintenance cost and time from days to hours as real-time information on the status of each light point is relayed to the operator who can schedule crews to a precise location. No more driving around looking for faults.
· Network setup and commissioning happens automatically and when the CityTouch Ready luminaire or a connector node is installed it starts transmitting location data and operational information securely over the Vodafone network.
