Key Topics Covered:

1. Executive summary

  • Executive summary: operator business revenue in South Africa will be largely flat: revenue growth in data, IoT and ICT services will offset declines in legacy services
  • Implications for operators

2. Forecast results

  • Operator business revenue in South Africa will be affected by mobile regulations in 2019 and 2020, but will recover thereafter
  • Operator business revenue will remain mostly flat over the forecast period as growth in fixed and mobile data services and ICT will offset the decline in legacy voice
  • The decline in legacy voice revenue is most marked in the large enterprise segment, but this is also where we expect to see the bulk of the growth in ICT revenue
  • The new EUSSC regulation will cause a decline in mobile business revenue in 2019/ 2020, but this will be offset by an increase in the number of connections thereafter
  • Revenue from fixed services will decline marginally in South Africa over the forecast period, driven by the significant fall in fixed voice and narrowband revenue
  • High-bandwidth services for both broadband and dedicated connections will continue to grow in importance, and vDSL will be the dominant technology in 2024
  • Revenue from ICT services will grow consistently as businesses migrate to cloud-based solutions and public cloud providers increase their presence in the country
  • We expect that operators will claim around 16% of the total addressable ICT market in 2024; co-location, security and SaaS will account for the bulk of this revenue
