1. DEMOGRAPHICS

Demographic and economic data are provided to help clients establish a framework for each country and
region included in the Pyramid mobile communications forecasts. Information such as population ,
nominal GDP, real GDP growth, consumer price inflation and currency exchange rates are important
indicators of market sophistication, current and projected demand, and opportunity. The Economist
Intelligence Unit is the source of this economic and demographic data unless otherwise noted.

Population
The mid-year population of the country. This number is reported in thousands. It is used to calculate
penetration rates.

Households
The mid-year number of households in the country. This number is reported in thousands.

Businesses
Includes registered business firms, non-business firms, institutions, schools and government. This number
is reported in thousands (000s). Pyramid ordinarily acquires this data from national statistics agencies. In
some instances, Pyramid employs additional data from national and international organizations and may
employ some of its own analysis and international benchmarking to estimate values.

Nominal Gross Domestic Product (GDP)


Gross Domestic Product (GDP) at current market prices in US$m.

Real Growth per Capita


Percentage change in the country's nominal GDP per capita, after adjusting for consumer price inflation.

Nominal GDP per Capita


Nominal GDP per capita is GDP in US$ divided by population.

PPP Adjusted GDP per Capita


GDP per capita adjusted using the country's purchasing power parity index in US$.

Consumer Price Inflation


Percentage change in consumer price index (12-month average) over previous year.

2013 Exchange rate (Local Currency/US$) Client Confidential


Exchange Rates: Foreign currencies are converted to U.S. dollars using the average exchange rate for
the year the data was reported.
Nominal GDP per Capita
Nominal GDP per capita is GDP in US$ divided by population.

PPP Adjusted GDP per Capita


GDP per capita adjusted using the country's purchasing power parity index in US$.

Consumer Price Inflation


Percentage change in consumer price index (12-month average) over previous year.

Exchange rate (Local Currency/US$)


Exchange Rates: Foreign currencies are converted to U.S. dollars using the average exchange rate for
the year the data was reported.

2. PENETRATION OF POPULATION

Penetration is the measure of adoption of a telecommunications service in a country. It is calculated by


dividing the total customer base by the population. It is generally used as a comparative measure of
network development with other countries or to compare the different adoption rates of similar service
offerings.

Main Line (synonymous with "Narrowband Subscriber Line")


A subscriber line with a transmission speed less than or equal to 128 Kbps. Includes plain old telephone
service (POTS) or publicly switched telephone network (PSTN) connections, basic rate interface (BRI)
ISDN connections and low-speed fixed wireless connections.

Mobile Subscriptions
Number of registered mobile accounts as reported by operators at the end of the calendar year as a
percentage of the population.

Prepaid
Number of registered prepaid mobile accounts as reported by operators at the end of the calendar year as
a percentage of the population.

Postpaid
Number of registered contract mobile accounts as reported by operators at the end of the calendar year
as a percentage of the population.

Mobile Users
The number of active mobile service users at the end of the calendar year, as a percentage of the
population. A mobile user is an individual with one or more active subscriptions. Pyramid Research bases
its calculation on the number of active subscriptions (such as SIM cards) and the ratio of active
subscriptions to people, as reported by service providers and national telecom authorities.

3. MOBILE SUBSCRIPTIONS BY NETWORK OPERATOR

The number of registered subscriptions enrolled with each of the public network operators. Subscription
data for network operators includes Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) and reseller subscriptions.
MVNO and reseller subscriptions are also shown separately.

Where additional operators are expected to start offering services in the future, their market shares are
estimated from the year of their expected launch. Unless the identity and the number of these new
operators are known at the time of producing the forecast, they will be considered in aggregate form and
noted as Other.

4. MOBILE SUBSCRIPTIONS BY TYPE OF PACKAGE

In recent years, prepaid has become the dominant subscription mode in many countries. This section
breaks down the number of registered mobile accounts into two types: prepaid, which includes those
subscriptions not subject to a monthly fee or a contract; and postpaid, which includes those subscriptions
subject to a contractual agreement between the subscriber and the service provider.

5. CHURN

The annual churn rate represents the number of disconnected mobile accounts during a calendar year as
a percentage of the total mobile accounts at the beginning of the same calendar year. In the case of
prepaid accounts, different operators use different criteria to consider an account inactive. Pyramid uses
the prevailing criteria in each particular country to calculate churn. In the case of postpaid accounts, an
2013 account is considered inactive once the contract is terminated by the network operator. Client Confidential

9. USAGE

Shows MOU (minutes of usage) per subscription, and segments usage by prepaid and postpaid
subscription. MOU includes both incoming and outgoing traffic. SMS and MMS usage per month per
subscription is also shown. Per standard industry reporting, t is important to note that our SMS and MMS
usage metrics as shown assume all subscriptions use SMS and MMS services. As such the SMS and
MMS monthly usage expressed in our forecast is a diluted figure. When calculating SMS and MMS
usage, however, Pyramid Research relies on usage patters for those who subscribe to the service only.

10. AVERAGE REVENUE PER SUBSCRIPTION (ARPS)

ARPS stands for Average Revenue per Subscription and represents a measure of the amount of revenue
that each subscription generates on average each month. ARPS figures are reported in US dollars. We
provide ARPS on an aggregate basis, prepaid and postpaid basis, operator basis, voice and data basis,
by messaging service and data application, and by technology generation (3G and non-3G).

11. REVENUES

Revenue figures are reported in millions of US dollars. Total revenues are calculated using a bottom-up
approach that takes into consideration the average number of user and/or accounts of a particular
technology in a given year and the average monthly revenue per subscription (ARPS) during that same
year. Non-recurring fees such as activation fees are not accounted for in our present methodology.

Revenues are exclusive of VAT.
