PARIS: French telecommunications group Orange said its net profit nearly tripled in the first half of the year to €3.2bil (RM14.29bil), due primarily to the sale of British operator EE. 

With accelerating uptake of fourth-generation (4G) mobile and fast broadband connections as well as increased sales, Orange’s chief executive said the company had the momentum needed to increase operating profit.
