2/5

WEAKNESSES

Relatively low market share:Biggest disadvantage for telenor is the relatively low market share. Mobilink and Ufone have

already settled down. Heavy investment and good marketing strategy is required to break the

other companys monopoly in the telecom industry.

Less Switching Cost:Switching cost of customer from one service provider to other is low. Fewer stakes are involved

with one company. Customer is getting less differentiation from all the service providers. A

service of one provider, if not perfect is a good substitute of the service of others. Pricing is

going down quality is improving and customers enjoying more power.

Negative cash flow in initial years:Initial years were not good as the entry into the telecom industry was not at all easy. The

company also had to bear losses after the propaganda was made against the Norwegian based

telecommunication company after the publication of caricatures of the Prophet (P.B.U.H).

OPPORTUNITIES

A number of opportunities exist in the voice telecommunication space, which are centered on

obtaining the necessary licenses and investing in the appropriate infrastructure.

Investment Opportunity:Obtain one of the existing cellular companies. Valuation could range between 8-12 times

earnings.

Market size:Market size is the biggest ever opportunity in Pakistani telecom sector. Almost 80% of

population is living in rural areas of Pakistan in which above 70% have no access to cellular

connections. That is market opportunity which any operator can avail by applying expansion

strategies.

Inefficiency and poor network service of other networks:Poor network service by the other networks is an opportunity for telenor to exploit. If the

continue their good service to its customers, its customer base is only going to increase.


3/5

THREATS:

Political instability:Political instability can occur if the government changes and bring new policies which might not

be in favor of telecom industry.

Propaganda by religious forces:Telenor had to face severe criticism from the religious forces in Pakistan after the publishing of

caricatures on the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H). people called for the total opposition of the

Norwegian based company.

Public pay phones & calling cards usage where network is not available:It is a big threat to the company as it cuts down companies profits. Moreover, people can even

shift to other network who have coverage in those areas. So the company should take notice and

try to provide service in every nook and corner of the country.
