We will continue to leverage our LUCA and accelerate our presence in both the residential and enterprise markets.”
NiQ Lai, Co-Owner and Group COO of HKBN said, “We are here to serve the underserved. Our new HGC switch-over offers are breakthrough offerings that have never been available before. Our recent results demonstrate that in slashing prices, price elasticity drives up our total revenue gains, and given our currently small base in enterprise, we’re set to gain market share. We expect our enterprise business to be a primary growth driver towards reaching our aspirational Co-Ownership 3 targets of between HK$2.1 to HK$2.4 adjusted available cash per share for distribution.”
Billy Yeung, Co-Owner and COO of HKBNES said, “With the successful integration of the former New World Telecom network, we are now flush with excess capacity from the HK$3.5 billion gross value of assets that we purchased for 20 cents on the dollar.
