MILAN--Italy's Telecom Italia SpA said Thursday that it swung to a net loss last year, due to several nonrecurring charges.

The company said that without such charges, it would have posted a net profit of about 1.4 billion euros ($1.58 billion), compared with EUR1.35 billion net profit in 2014.

Net loss stood at EUR72 million.

Earning before interest and tax, or Ebit, fell 33% to EUR3 billion, the company added.

The telecom operator, which has called its annual shareholders' meeting for May 25, said its board proposed a dividend of EUR2.75 cents a saving share, which amounts to about EUR166 million.
