Cell C seeks profitability within 3 years

interesting approach - 3 years is a quite a while before being profitable, enough time to get some meat in the market, but also enough time to fall out of the race altogether.

Ag my concern with the approach and I suspect JvZ will jump on to argue this is that it is an approach which lends itself to not ensuring the continuous keeping of network quality. So for 3 years build a network, garner market share (low prices) and so on and then sweat the assets and bleed the consumer to coup the investment. If I were looking to invest in a private teleco (that is private company as opposed to private network) I would be more interested at the point at which the network will be able to self finance maintenance and upgrading - its not something to easily or fully define but the essence is "at what point would your plan be able to operate as a sustainable network" the reason being that even if not particularly profitable a network asset owning company is reinvesting in its network it can be bought up whole at a decent price.
