KPN
Content
KPN successfully fended off takeover approaches from the likes of KKR, EQT and Stonepeak. However, this backfired and precisely those PE firms subsequently established and strengthened competitors in the fibre market: Delta Fiber and Open Dutch Fiber. Meanwhile, KPN lost its lead in mobile to T-Mobile NL and in fixed to VodafoneZiggo. All the more reason therefore to tightly monitor the incumbent’s performance in the increasingly competitive Dutch market.
To make matters worse, a return of regulation through the assignment of significant market power (SMP) could be pending. In order to combat all these external forces, KPN successfully streamlined the company and will, for the foreseeable future, carry on its simplification strategy. Meanwhile, it increased the investment in fibre networks, in part via a joint venture with the APG pension fund.
In our semi-annual webinar, we discuss KPN’s operational and financial performance, in light of the ever changing market circumstances. Beyond this, we analyze the company’s strategy, as well as the impact that further market consolidation may have.

Odido
Content
Odido is the main challenger on the Dutch market, rivalled mainly by Delta Fiber in fixed and Youfone and Budget in the mobile space. It successfully managed to dethrone KPN as the leading MNO, but it is tougher to challenge Ziggo and KPN on the fixed-line market.
The company, over the years, absorbed Orange, Tele2 and Simpel and is now seeing its ownership change. Deutsche Telekom and Tele2 are selling to the private equity combo of APAX Partners and Warburg Pincus at a valuation of EUR 3.0 billion (EUR 5.1 billion including debt). International peers include Orange Belgium, Telefonica Deutschland, Salt (Switzerland), MasMovil (Spain) and Vodafone UK in that it combines a MNO with a virtual fixed-line operator.
Odido is deploying a ‘next-generation’ operating model: it owns no passive network elements, but does control active networks in mobile (nationwide RAN on Cellnex NL) and fixed (MDF/ODF on KPN, Primevest and Open Dutch Fiber, supplanted with a WBA deal with KPN).
An important question looming is: will the new owners change the company’s strategy? Will they be able to continue its success in mobile? And will they be able to provide meaningful competition on the fixed-line market? But also: how will the owners weigh extracting cash (dividends) versus investing, in order to increase te value of the company?
Odido’s operational and financial performance always are at the heart of our webinar coverage of the company. In addition, we discuss its strategy and our expectations for its performance going forward.

VODAFONE ZIGGO
Content
VodafoneZiggo is the converged challenger on the Dutch market, as a result of a cable/mobile merger.
In our semi-annual webinar devoted to VodafoneZiggo, we start off with a discussion of the company’s performance, vis-à-vis its main competitors (KPN, Odido, Delta Fiber). Also, we will discuss its strategy, important market and sector trends and developments, as well as our take on its performance over the next few quarters and years.
- VodafoneZiggo’s ownership has been steady since its formation on the last day of 2016. The Vodafone Group and Liberty Global each own 50 percent, with joint control. Ownership changes do not appear to be imminent, but we will discuss a number of likely scenarios.
- Most important and underlying this issue could be VodafneZiggo’s roadmap for the medium and longer term. The deployment of Docsis 3.1 is completed but already (not least from competitive pressure from FTTH) the next step must be considered. Docsis 4 is optional but an FTTP based strategy is also possible.
These, and other issues, will be discussed in our 60 minute premium webinar.
