  • New Zealand Broadband: Free TV's and Fridges - the Consumer Wins but Is It Sustainable?
    MARKET PERSPECTIVE New Zealand Broadband: Free TV's and Fridges - The Consumer Wins but is it Sustainable? Peter Wise Shane Minogue Monica Collier Jefferson King Sponsored by Spark New Zealand Limited IDC OPINION The New Zealand telecommunications market is shifting; from a focus around better and faster connectivity, to service innovations and value. Consumers are enjoying better internet connectivity and a raft of competitive offers from more than 90 retailers. Retailers, however, are feeling the pinch of decreasing margins. Questions are starting to arise about the sustainability of such a competitive retail marketplace. Total telecommunications market revenues increased by 1.1% from NZ$5.361 billion in the year to December 2016 to NZ$5.421 billion in the year to December 2017. IDC forecasts that this growth will continue in future years with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 1.4% to 2021. However, this growth disguises the true story of a market that is displaying extreme price pressure and competition in both fixed and mobile. Overall, ARPUs are either flat or declining in both broadband and mobile and in the broadband space Retail Service Providers (RSPs) continue to compete away any chance of strong, sustainable ARPU growth. New Zealand telecommunication's structural separation and national broadband plan have created new constructs and market dynamics. The UFB initiative has commoditised fibre in New Zealand. Consumer fibre plan prices have plummeted from averaging over NZ$200 per month in 2013 to around NZ$85 per month as at February 2018. Fibre is available to more than a million homes and premises, and over a third have made the switch.

View it in your browser Infratil Monthly Operational Report 1 July 2011 Introduction Infratil's 2011 Annual Report was released and is available here. The Report provides a record of Infratil's performance over the year to 31 March 2011, its financial position as at 31 March 2011, the strategic factors which are guiding management and a summary of the performance, circumstance and prospects of Infratil's businesses. After almost a quarter of the financial year the main "take out" thus far is that Infratil is tracking to budget with the pluses and minuses roughly in balance. The 4.75cps final dividend was paid in June. 25% of shareholders holding 11% of the shares took advantage of the DRP and 1.4 million shares were issued at $1.87 each. After the DRP issue, Infratil has 604.2 million shares on issue. TrustPower A wet, warm winter has depressed wholesale electricity prices and coincidentally the Electricity Authority has initiated a $10.5 million campaign to encourage consumers to check their power bills to see if they can lower their costs. The Authority reported that approximately 6% of those who checked their bills subsequently initiated a change of retailer. The Authority is funded by a levy on electricity consumption. Over the last year about 30,000 accounts have switched company each month. Over this period TrustPower's customer gains and losses have been in balance with the overall outcome being gains by Pulse, Meridian and Genesis drawn from Contact and Mighty River Power. The temperate winter may be increasing supply and reducing demand (less electricity has been consumed to date in 2011 than for the same period in 2010) resulting in low wholesale prices, but the situation may be analogous to mortgage borrowers with floating rate loans.
