Czech Republic Telecommunications Report Q1 2012
Business Monitor International, November 2011, Pages: 102
Business Monitor International's Czech Republic Telecommunications Report provides industry professionals and strategists, corporate analysts, telecommunication associations, government departments and regulatory bodies with independent forecasts and competitive intelligence on Czech Republic's telecommunications industry.
The Q112 update to the Czech Republic Telecoms market report contains extended forecasts for the mobile, ARPU, fixed-line and internet sectors through to the end of 2016. It also contains analysis of new developments in the country’s telecoms industry. BMI's analysis and forecasts are based on market data for Q111 provided by fixed-line incumbent Telefónica O2, Deutsche Telekom-owned T-Mobile Czech Republic, Vodafone Czech Republic and cable operator UPC Czech Republic. BMI also incorporates latest data from the ITU for the fixed-line and internet markets relating to the end of December 2010. The Czech mobile market returned to growth in Q211 with 0.4% q-o-q growth and net additions of 58,000. However, BMI does not believe this performance signals a return to growth for the market, with penetration still above 130% and operators increasingly focused on the migration of subscribers from prepaid to postpaid subscriptions. Mobile penetration in the Czech Republic has largely remained flat during the past two years and is not expect to change significantly in the next five years. BMI expects the market to record slow growth, interspersed with quarters of subscriber losses as operators discount inactive subscribers. BMI forecast an average annual growth rate of 0.5% over the next five years, bringing the mobile subscriber base to just under 14.043mn in 2016 or penetration rate of almost 131.8%. One of the major trends across Czech Republic’s telecoms markets is the drive by operator to upgrade customers to higher value services as well as developing VAS revenues. With the saturation of the mobile voice segment, BMI expects operators to increase their focus on mobile broadband services and postpaid subscriptions to drive revenue growth. This focus has resulted in the operators increasing investments in their 3G networks, with respective claims of now having the greatest population coverage or mobile broadband speeds. BMI expects such higher value services to have a positive effect on operators’ ARPU.
In the fixed-line sector, operators have continued to migratee customers to higher value services as growth in terms of subscriber acquisitions has slowed. Cable operator UPC has reported strong growth in digital pay-TV services, while analogue subscriptions have continued to decline. Meanwhile in April 2011, UPC established its first datacentre in telehouse TTC Telekomunikace in Prague. The new facility has a capacity of 350m2, which can be extended further and uses a node with n x 10GB capacity to connect to the optical backbone route. Customers can choose from a wide variety of services provided at the datacentre, including server hosting, web hosting, managed servers, rack housing, cloud services, virtual servers and others. To counter the strong growth of UPC, with broadband subscriptions up 8.2% yo- y to Q211, the Telefónica O2 backed incumbent launched its VDSL network to offer high-speed broadband services earlier in 2011. BMI expects this to boost the operator’s competitiveness in the high value market for superfast broadband services dominated by cable operators using the DOCSIS3.0 standard.
