...In this quarter’s update, we have incorporated the latest subscriber data from the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) and Bangladeshi mobile operators, and made several adjustments to our forecast scenarios. We have also extended our forecast period to 2016. At the time of writing, the BTRC and several mobile operators have yet to release the latest subscriber data pertaining to the quarter ended September 2011. We estimate that there were about 86.555mn mobile subscribers in Bangladesh at the end of September 2011, representing a net addition of 4.728mn from the previous quarter. Grameenphone was the only operator to have announced its September 2011 results. The operator’s subscriber base increased to 35.245mn from 33.824mn in June 2011, while its blended ARPU fell to BDT257 from BDT270 over the same period. We believe that the Bangladeshi mobile industry is on track to meet our end-2011 target of 90.511mn. In our newly extended forecast, we expect 158.940mn subscribers in the country at the end of 2016, with a penetration rate of 99.2%. While we have largely retained our expectations for Bangladesh’s fixed-line industry, we have adjusted our forecasts for the country’s internet and broadband sectors in light of new data from the ITU. We forecast 9.718mn internet users and 4.729 broadband (fixed and mobile) subscribers in Bangladesh at the end of 2016. In the quarter ended September 2011, we saw...

...TELECOMMUNICATIONS: THE BATTLE OF THE INDUSTRIES April 24, 1999 Econ 635 There have been many changes in the way telecommunication companies have been doing business- not only to satisfy the needs of the consumer, but to compete with other telecommunication services, too. Advances in technology have led to the integration of several telecommunication services which enter a home through existing copper wires or newer optical lines. New laws are even allowing companies to merge or acquire smaller companies for the purpose of increasing their leverage in the market. Cable Industry Currently, the cable industry relies heavily on the use of coaxial cable to transmit its signals, through radio waves, to consumers. This is the cable that is already installed in millions of homes throughout the country. However, compared to other recent technological advances, the coaxial cable has many set backs to overcome. First, the number of signals that it can transmit simultaneously is limited. Second, the signal transmitted by the cable gets worse as distance increases. As an additional option, fiber optics have emerged which can carry hundreds of video, data and voice channels. I will go into further detail on fiber optics later in my research. This traditional cable responded by implementing the use of digital compression. Digital compression allows a broadcaster to squeeze in more channels of programming in each single coaxial cable, although picture quality diminishes...

...This memorandum presents a valuation of Telco Exchange (TX) and serves as a consultation for Valhalla Partners to consider its investment in TX. Art Mark’s Vote and Appropriate Valuation for Telco Exchange Art Marks should vote to make an investment in Telco Exchange because the company possesses many of the components which could make it a potential 67 million dollar company (from our valuation by DCF method using WACC -Appendix A). Telco has a product that solves large company high cost issues revolving around telecom equipment and telecom services (makes around $250,000 per software licensing deal). They have been profitable in 2002 and the potential to have a revenue of a 50 million annual revenue in four years time. They have sold their solutions to big companies including IKON and Marriot and currently have working relationship with AT&T for which some of their past, current and future customer references are coming from. So far Telco has the first mover advantage offering a more complete solution package than any other competitors at the current time. Valhalla had completed the valuation of ROI on a 3.75 million investment to Telco resulting in a 6.8 to 12.1 times their capital investment with the company valuation of 170 to 343 million. A conservative valuation of Telco resulted in a 115 to 140 million company valuation and a 4.6 to 6.1 times return on capital. Telco needed a total investment of 10 million, and Valhalla along with Columbia capital would be...

...Case Study Why the telecoms industry is doing business in RMB Telecoms equipment and handset manufacturers like Telco – the representative but fictional example in this case study – recognise that they can only stand out in a tough sector by competing on an international scale. This increasingly means doing business in high-growth emerging markets like China and leveraging RMB to gain that vital competitive advantage. Background Telco, with its Head office based in London, began life as a manufacturer of wire-line equipment for the Western European aerospace sector. Following the privatisation of national telecoms operators from the late 1980s, it refocused its business to supply carriers in Europe and the US. Telco has been an HSBC client for more than ten years, after finding that domestic banks could not match its international expansion strategy. HSBC’s global network supported its exports growth across new markets by supporting all Telco’s export invoices. Rolling waves of telecoms deregulation saw Telco and other suppliers enter the mobile handset market in the 1990s, attracted by the significant growth opportunities. The intense competition and tightening margins in equipment supply – not least the demand from emerging markets – saw Telco make its first trip to China on a sourcing mission for basic components. Building a business In China At the company’s request, HSBC relationship managers helped guide Telco’s entry into China by working with professional advisors...

... Key Terms Switched circuit-A circuit by the phone company in reaction to signaling (the user tapping telephone keys or a modem sending in the same digits), with the telco tearing down the circuit when the user is finished. Dedicated circuit- An electric circuit created by a telco on behalf of a customer, with the circuit staying up all the time, dedicated for use by the one customer that ordered the circuit. Also known as a line, leased circuit, and point-to-point line. Circuit switching-The overall process by which a series of telco devices called circuit switches connect a circuit from one customer to the other, with the device’s logic taking incoming bits on one segment in the link and forwarding those bits out the matching outgoing segment, without storing bits. Packet switching-Process of forwarding customer data in a WAN by looking at the header of the messages sent into the WAN by the customer and making a per-messages decision as to where to forward each message. Leased line-A physical link between two locations, provided by a telco, that allows two-way communication between sites. Time-division multiplexing-A type of logic used by some networking devices, including circuit switches in the telco, in which the switch divides a faster line into time channels.

...shift in customer satisfaction. Digital customer care (“eCare”) responds to consumer demand for easily accessible, highly rewarding multichannel interactions. In one example of many, one leading mobile operator employed eCare initiatives to reduce their total call center volume by 20 percent in just eight months, lowering costs significantly while elevating their net promoter score (NPS). McKinsey conducted its first eCare consumer survey in the second quarter of 2012 to more fully explore eCare dynamics. The survey addressed 2,000 respondents in France – customers of the main telecoms operators in that country. Its key focus was on understanding the differences in customer service between digital and traditional channels for telcos and on identifying roadblocks to adopting digital channels. Why digital channels matter The advent of digital channels has changed the way consumers communicate and search for product and service information. Take France as an example. An NM Incite survey showed that consumers increased their use of social media by 17 percent between 2010 and 2011, while their use of short message service (SMS) texting, e -mail, mobile phones, and landlines all fell by 8 to 11 percent.
