Market & Data Reports - 05/01/2009
Key variables to achieving profitability
Starting with a model of the different expense and income items, and investment spending in particular, this report measures the sensitivity of a number of FTTx network rollout variables: population density, technical architecture, penetration rate, ARPU… with the measurements themselves segmented by type of operator (incumbent carrier, alternative operator, new entrant).

• What criteria are shaping ultra-fast broadband players’ choices?
• What are the strengths and weaknesses of the different players involved?
• What level of profitability can be expected from fibre rollouts:
- depending on the zone being covered
- depending on the passive infrastructure access mode
- depending on the level of competition…
• What are the key factors and chief obstacles to players' commitment to ultra-fast broadband?
|
• Characteristics
- Housing structure (density, verticality…)
- Architecture of the existing network (average size of central offices and cabinets)
• Income:
- ARPU (retail and wholesale)
- Coverage rate
- Penetration rate
• Expenditures:
- SAC
- IP interconnectivity and content access costs
- Technical costs
- Passive infrastructure rental costs
- Amortisation
• Investments:
- Network construction feasibility study costs
- Cost of digging trenches and/or outlets in existing underground passages
- Manhole costs
- Price of fibres and installation costs
- Price of other passive equipment (splitters, connectors, etc.)
- Price of active electronic equipment (ONT/OLT, switch/CPE Ethernet, VDSL, DSLAM/Modem)
- Subscriber connection study fees
- Connection costs |

7. DataBook
• Detailed results of simulations |
Based on different FTTx technologies (notably VDSL, GPON and E-P2P) and according to various market features, an income and expense model developed by IDATE that makes it possible to calculate expenditures and
associated operating results, notably:
• Annual and accrued investments (CAPEX)
• Income before depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA)
• Operating income (EBIT)
• Annual and accrued free cash flow (FCF)
Several dozen variables and indicators (see list) are factored into the model. Simulations presented in the report generally cover 10-year periods. |
