Israel's Pelephone 3G base Surpasses 1 Million Mark

Pelephone is the third largest of Israel's four networks, but it was the fastest growing in Q3 08, both in real terms and proportionately. It added 62k customers in the quarter compared to 40k for market leader Cellcom and 36k for second-placed Partner, and its proportionate quarterly growth rate stood at 2.4% compared to 1.3% for both its rivals. At the end of the quarter its active customer base was just short of 2.70m. Nearest rival Partner had 2.88m, which means that its lead over Pelephone was below 200k for the first time in three years.  more

Cellcom Israel Q2 '08 - Impressive Financials Thanks to 3G Growth

Israeli market leader Cellcom maintained a lead of more than quarter of a million at the end of Q2 08 with 3.12m customers compared to 2.86m for nearest rival Partner. On an annual basis, Cellcom saw 5.3% growth to its customer base, almost half the 10.5% rate recorded for the prior twelve months but a good result nonetheless given that growth has slowed considerably in the Israeli market. Indeed, both Partner and Pelephone lost customers in Q1, and although Cellcom's Q2 net additions of 22k lagged behind the 33k recorded by Partner, on a half-yearly basis Cellcom was well ahead with a 44k gain compared to a 4k loss for its rival.  more

Pelephone - Strong annual growth but still in third place

As we predicted in Issue 93 of The Mobile World Briefing, Pelephone remained the third largest operator in the Israeli market at the end of Q3 2007. With 2.56m customers at the end of September, Pelephone was 236k short of nearest rival Partner's total customer base and 457k short of market leader Cellcom. This represents a marginal improvement on the deficits recorded at the end of September 2006, which were 260k and 462k respectively. Net additions in the quarter stood at 47k, up slightly on the Q3 06 figure of 43k, although on a proportionate basis, growth was almost exactly the same with a 1.9% quarterly increase in the total customer base in both quarters.  more
