- und daher habe ich mir nach dem Einstieg bei Alibaba, die inzwischem mehr als 20% gut gemacht haben, auch einige Rakutens gekauft.

Look Out Amazon, Here Comes...Rakuten?
Japanese e-commerce firm Rakuten announced on Tuesday it is acquiring Ebates for $1 billion.

The acquisition, which Rakuten hinted at last week, is part of the Japanese company?s push to grow its base beyond its domestic market and hopefully, become a global player. Having made some $1.2 billion acquisitions to date along these lines, this is Rakuten?s most ambitious move to date.

However, investors are dubious that the company can absorb yet another foreign acquisition, much less one the size of Ebates, despite Rakuten?s strong cash position.
Then there is the ever-present Amazon, which dominates the e-commerce market in the U.S. Few believe it will falter in the face of Chinese giant Alibaba, much less a Rakuten-Ebates combo.

Rakuten Goes Forth

Not surprisingly, Rakuten says it is undaunted. For starters, it has assembled a very interesting mix of acquisitions. There is messaging app Viber, which it purchased for $900 million in February, the Canadian ebook offering Kobo, Spanish video service Wuaki.tv, Viki, a digital content platform and Buy.com.
Now it has picked up Ebates.

Cristina Chi - Philstar.com
February 12, 2025

MANILA, Philippines ? The Philippines has received P168 million (¥444 million) from Japan to set up an Open Radio Access Network (Open RAN) system in the University of the Philippines ? a grant that aims to eventually advance the development of open-access 5G technology in the country.

"The project is expected to establish an environment to deploy Open RAN leading to increased competition in the base station market, which will lead to lower costs in the deployment and operation of 5G networks, as well as stimulate innovation, in the Philippines," the embassy said.

63640 Postings, 7358 Tage LibudaMobile achieved profitability in final month 2024

Rakuten Mobile achieved profitability in the final month of 2024 five years after launch, with chair Mickey Mikitani targeting full-year EBITDA to turn positive in 2025, driven by subscriber and ARPU gains.

The operator?s EBITDA in December hit JPY2.3 billion ($15.1 million). The figure for the full-year dropped by JPY98.7 billion from a year ago to a loss of JPY53.8 billion.

Mikitani attributed the move to profit to strong subscriber acquisition and increased ARPU due to improved network quality, as well as ongoing cost control and rising ad revenue.
He added Rakuten Mobile will be ?a driving force? for the group?s future growth, accounting for 34.4 per cent of consolidated revenue growth in 2024.

Mikitani noted it covered annual capital needs without relying on new debt for the group. Capex fell from JPY169 billion in 2023 to JPY81 billion last year. The company noted some investments were postponed to 2025, with the outlay forecast to climb to JPY150 billion.

63640 Postings, 7358 Tage LibudaRakuten Mobile eyes first EBITDA profit this year

After five years of losses Rakuten Mobile hits positive territory ? but the Japanese telco still has a mountain of debt.

Robert Clark, Contributing Editor
February 14, 2025

Rakuten Mobile is aiming for full-year EBITDA profitability this year after eking out its first positive monthly result.

The unit recorded positive EBITDA of 100 million Japanese yen (US$650,000) in December, its first since it started service in April 2020.

It hiked full-year revenue by 26% to JPY284 billion ($1.9 billion) and shaved its operating loss by more than a quarter, but still posted a deficit of JPY216 billion ($1.4 billion).

It achieved JPY2.3 billion ($15.1 million) positive EBITDA in December, with full-year revenue up 21% to JPY441 billion ($2.9 billion).

Rakuten says after years of borrowing to grow the mobile business it achieved self-funding last year and is now able to keep it afloat without taking on more debt.

Its mobile unit has some hefty liabilities which, of course, aren't reflected in EBITDA numbers. It reported outstanding debt of JPY1.13 trillion ($7.4 billion) at December 31, along with JPY207 billion ($1.4 billion) in lease obligations and JPY328 billion in other liabilities. Gross assets totaled JPY1.92 trillion ($12.6 billion).

February 13, 2025

Kyivstar made progress on its open RAN ambitions, announcing the launch of a laboratory test in Ukraine in partnership with Rakuten Symphony as part of ongoing efforts to rebuild the country?s digital infrastructure.

Veon-owned Kyivstar stated it will test Rakuten Symphony?s cloud-native RAN software in a controlled laboratory environment.

The companies explained the testing process is intended to shape Ukraine?s long-term digital infrastructure strategy, as Kyivstar continues its push for an open and robust mobile network for its 24 million subscribers.

The development comes after Veon and Rakuten Symphony signed an agreement in 2023 to jointly rebuild Ukraine?s telecoms infrastructure in the aftermath of its ongoing war with Russia. The companies pledged to invest in digital services and open RAN in a commitment to re-establish network infrastructure in the country.

Kaan Terzioglu, CEO of Veon, described the testing phase as a ?critical milestone? in the digital recovery efforts and expressed ambitions to further expand the companies? partnership beyond the current project.

Rakuten Mobile hits break-even but growth is still slow

By Ray Le Maistre
Feb 14, 2025

Rakuten Mobile is still Japan?s telco minnow, with about 7.5 million retail subscribers.

But its numbers are heading in the right direction and it has just hit break-even, according to its parent company.

Rakuten Symphony, the mobile operator?s vendor offshoot, struck a positive note with a 62% rise in annual revenues.

The mobile journey of Japanese digital conglomerate Rakuten Group continues to be a fascinating one, as its Rakuten Mobile operation battles for financial stability and for slivers of market share as it competes against a trio of telco giants in Japan. Meanwhile, the mobile operator?s vendor offshoot, Rakuten Symphony, is plying its trade across the world and has just reported its best ever quarter of revenues.

Rakuten Group expects its mobile operator to achieve full year EBITDA profitability in 2025.
Rakuten Mobile ended 2024 with 8.3 million customers in total, though this number includes mobile virtual network operator/enabler customers: Strip those out and Rakuten Mobile ended last year with 7.46 million mobile service customers, up from 5.9 million at the end of 2023.

Rakuten Mobile is the only company in the world that has achieved a fully virtualized network. We are now actively selling and integrating the software that supports this virtualized network overseas.
As for new projects, this week, we have already started experiments with Kyivstar in Ukraine. Moving forward, we are progressing toward a project to deploy O-RAN across the entire country of Ukraine.

On January 25, we also began similar initiatives in Kenya.

Additionally, we are providing a cloud and operating support software service called Robin.io to one of the major telecommunications companies in the United States, in a highly exclusive manner.

To draw a comparison, just as Amazon has externalized its cloud technology developed through its e-commerce business, Rakuten Mobile is selling its technology through Rakuten Symphony.

This is Matsuda from the Nikkei. I have two questions. First, could you share your thoughts on Rakuten Mobile achieving monthly profitability?

While I cannot promise that EBITDA will be positive every month from the start, our goal of achieving full-year profitability this year is highly feasible. As for this year?s outlook, our primary focus is on reaching 10 million subscribers. One strategy is to strengthen our approach to older demographics and regional areas, where we are relatively weak, while maintaining our strong position among younger users in urban areas.
