Analyst Opinion

Within the context of increasing digitalization, a fast and reliable internet connection that continues to improve in terms of speed is of rising importance worldwide for both business and personal use. As such, we can expect to see the largest increase in revenues in this segment in the future. Further, as a result of fierce competition in the communication services market, stagnating revenues may be seen now and then in countries such as the U.S. and China, which already have strong mobile networks as well as a particularly high market penetration. In the future, the new 5G mobile communications standard will account for a larger share of revenues, although this will not lead to significantly increasing revenues in this segment.
