Telefónica sells tower division
JANUARY 13, 2021 09.37 EUROPE/LONDON BY CHRIS DZIADUL

Telefónica’s subsidiary Telxius, which lists KKR and Pontegadea as minority shareholders, has agreed to sell its tower division to American Tower Corporation (ATC) for €7.7bn in cash.

The division has a presence both in Europe (Spain and Germany) and Latin America (Brazil, Peru, Chile and Argentina) and the sale, which encompasses around 30,772 tower sites, will be undertaken in two separate transactions for Europe and Latin America and closed once the respective regulatory authorisations have been obtained.

Telefónica is expected to see a capital gain of around €3.5 billion a reduction of its net debt by some €4.6 billion from the sale.

Commenting on the sale, José María Álvarez-Pallete, the president of Telefónica, said: “this is a deal that makes strategic sense within our roadmap. American Towers was our second supplier after Telxius.

“After this great operation we will continue to focus on our most ambitious objectives: the integration of O2 with Virgin in the United Kingdom, the purchase of Oi mobile in Brazil and the reduction of debt”.

Following the sale, ATC will become Telefónica’s leading supplier in both Europe and Latin America and maintains its status as a partner in strategic projects in Brazil, Argentina and Colombia.

Molotov starts international expansion
JANUARY 13, 2021 09.15 EUROPE/LONDON BY CHRIS DZIADUL

The OTT provider Molotov has started to expand beyond its home market France, initially to seven countries on the African continent.


In a statement, it says it launched in Ivory Coast three weeks ago and is already aggregating tens of thousands of paying subscribers. Senegal will follow this month, Cameroon in February, Burkina Faso in March, Tunisia in April, and Guinea and the Democratic Republic of Congo, before a global rollout in the rest of French-speaking Africa countries in the course of the semester.

Molotov adds that elsewhere, especially in Europe, South America and Asia, discussions are underway with local partners to launch regional versions of Molotov. The objective is to rapidly deploy the platform and the brand around the world, primarily in EMEA.

Molotov says that for Africa, which is mainly equipped with smartphones and tablets, it has optimised its applications to take into account regional specificities (low bandrates, unstable connections, low-performance terminals). The monetisation of paid offers relies on payment solutions provided by Digital Virgo and in particular its no credit card needed, per day payment system, provided directly by local mobile operators. Digital Virgo, a global provider of monetisation solutions operating in more than 40 countries with 120 telco partners, brings its expertise in African markets and local marketing to this partnership, thanks to its local branches and 130 employees on the continent.

Molotov’s initial offer in Africa consists of 15 local linear channels, catch-up and on-demand content. However, agreements with regional publishers have been reached in order to increase this to 30 channels by this spring.

It notes that Mango, the free ad supported AVOD service launched by Molotov in France last November, will enrich these services with hundreds of films, documentaries, TV shows and kid’s content.

Commenting on the development, JeanDavid Blanc, founder and CEO of Molotov, said: “The international launch of Molotov represents an exciting new milestone expanding our platform and brand throughout the world.

“Our mission is simple: to create the easiest way for viewers to find the content they love through an intuitive service and platform. Molotov not only helps viewers discover new content, but also provides publishers, channels and SVOD services the ability to be easily discovered and more frequently used”.

François le Pichon, in charge of Molotov Solutions and international development, added: “Molotov’s ability to attract international partners is a great recognition for our brand and our French team’s capacity to grow one of the most acclaimed OTT platforms”.

Vincent Taradel, marketing director of Digital Virgo, said: “The partnership with Molotov allows us to deploy a service with very high added value on the African market. Cloud TV offers growth potential to all players in the content ecosystem, from producer to publisher via telecom operators. But the key element of success is, without a doubt, adaptation to local specificities. This is where we intervene by integrating our payment platform, our ability to integrate local content, adapt technology and launch effective marketing campaigns”..

Radiožurnál is number one on the market, Czech Radio has significantly strengthened
01/14/2021 11:00

Czech Radio Radiožurnál became by far the most listened radio, and the position of Czech Radio on the radio market also significantly strengthened. This is shown by the current results of the main research of radio listening in the Czech Republic Radioprojekt for the 3rd and 4th quarters of 2020, which were published after a one-year break caused by the circumstances of the coronavirus epidemic.

" It's great that the Czech Radio stations survived this difficult period and retained the favor of the audience. Increased interest in information significantly strengthened ČRo's position on the market. This clearly shows how important public service media are to the public and how they play an irreplaceable role in society. The most visible result is the return of Radiožurnál to the position of the most listened radio after 15 years. Thanks to our listeners and all radio broadcasters for the current great results, who, even in the difficult conditions of the coronavirus crisis, continue to provide broadcasting and its support , "said René Zavoral, CEO of Czech Radio.

937 thousand listeners listened to Radiožurnál daily, which is almost 100 thousand more than the long-time leader of the Rádio Impuls radio market (841 thousand). The Czech Radio Dvojka (344 thousand) also recorded a pleasing increase of 18,000 listeners, which confirms the correctness of the station's recently implemented program changes. The number of Czech Radio listeners exceeded 1,600,000 (1,605,000) on average. The share of Czech Radio on the market also increased at a record rate to 24.1%, which is 1.4 pp more than in the previous period.
