In the firing line: The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted operations and caused revenue to drop
The industry has contracted facing difficulties in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. The lack of international arrivals throughout 2020-21 and 2021-22 reduced international roaming charges for the major carriers in those years. Declining handset sales have also constrained revenue. Industry revenue is expected to sink at an annualised 1.9% over the five years through 2022-23, to total $3.5 billion. This performance includes a spike of 5.6% in 2022-23, as an influx of international arrivals lead to a recovery in international roaming charges.
Wireless telecommunications carriers operate and maintain transmission and switching facilities to deliver direct communications through airwaves.
