Ooredoo Oman, the sultanate's No.2 telecom operator, reported a 16.2 per cent rise in second-quarter net profit on Tuesday.

The firm, majority-owned by Qatar's Ooredoo, made a net profit of RO11.5 million ($29.9 million) in the three months to June 30, up from RO9.9 million in the year-earlier period.

Gulf Baader Capital had forecast Ooredoo Oman to make a net profit of RO11 million in the quarter.

It has reported rising profits in five of the preceding seven quarters, but before that profits fell for seven straight quarters.

The company had 2.75 million mobile and fixed line subscribers as of June 30, up 11.4 per cent from a year earlier.
