South Africa: Operators Continue to Upgrade Networks as Mobile Data Demand Builds

Going forward, we expect South Africa’s telecom market revenue to grow at a CAGR of 1.6%, from $13.9bn in 2009 to $15.1bn in 2014. The mobile segment dominates the South African telecom market. We estimate that the mobile segment generated 72% of total market revenue in 2009, propelled by mobile voice and data. We expect mobile voice to continue to generate most of the segment’s revenue, growing from $8.6bn in 2009 to $8.8bn in 2014, a five-year CAGR of 0.7%. However, the bulk of the growth in mobile revenue will be generated by mobile data. Driven by mobile email and mobile broadband Internet services, we anticipate mobile data revenue will grow from $1.4bn in 2009 to $2.2bn in 2014, a CAGR of 9.4%. On the fixed side, while generating the bulk of the revenue, we expect fixed voice revenue to decrease from $2.6bn in 2009 to $2.0bn in 2014, due to substitution from the mobile side. A number of undersea and land-based cable projects will provide much-needed extra capacity for operators to offer IP services at more affordable prices, thus capturing a wider population. As a result, we expect broadband Internet revenue to grow from $369m in 2009 to $740m in 2014, a CAGR of 14.9%.
