Improved spectrum efficiency: 2-4 times better
compared to HSPA
LTE Offers Double Digit Improvement on
cost/performance vs. existing technologies
Much Lower Latency
Spectrum flexibility - deployed on existing mobile
bands e.g. 900, 1800, and 2100 MHz
Lower Network complexity and cost

• Declining EBITDA from 06/07 to 10/11
Three major players: 2.3%, 1.3%, 2.0% decline respectively
Voice Revenue rapid decline
Roaming revenue under pressure – substitute products, price focus
Increased Data Revenue not bridging the gap
• Market saturation – Higher retention and acquisition costs
• Maintaining primacy of the Customer Relationship (from the OTT players)
• Market disruption from network upgrades with LTE etc
• Operating Cost pressures:
Higher Network Utilisation
Retail & Cell Site Rental costs
Systems upgrades to support Customer Centricity
• Mobile Operators need to move up the value chain!
