TechCentral's guests in this episode of the TechCentral Show believe Blue Label Telecoms and its affiliate (and soon to be subsidiary) Cell C present a compelling investment case. Philip Short, global portfolio manager at Flagship Asset Management – which counts Blue label as its sole South African investment – and Dylan Bradfield, portfolio manager at Sharenet, tell TechCentral editor Duncan McLeod that they believe the turnaround taking place at Cell C is real, and will have a meaningful impact on Blue Label shares. Blue shares, which have already rallied strongly – which have more than doubled in the past six months – could still have plenty of room to run, according to Short. In this episode of the TechCentral Show, Short and Bradfield unpack: • Blue Label's announcement earlier this month that it is considering a JSE listing for Cell C; • Why Cell C's restructured operating model and strategy makes sense, and why that's good news for Blue Label shareholders; • The role of Cell C CEO Jorge Mendes in the turnaround – and what the opportunity is for the mobile operator with its new “asset-light” model of running its network – management of its radio access network has effectively been outsourced to partners (and competitors) MTN and Vodacom; • Which operators would be most vulnerable to a resurgent Cell C; • The importance of Cell C's strategy around mobile virtual network operators and the significance of its relationship with Capitec; • The move by Blue Label to sell Comm Equipment Company to Cell C – good move or not? • Whether Cell C can compete with Telkom, Vodacom and MTN in the business market, something Mendes has signalled his desire to do; • What the listing of Cell C could look like, what management's focus should be before the listing and what kind of valuation the business could attract; and • How much more value could be unlocked for Blue Label shareholders.

Schalk Visser has worked in telecommunications for more than 20 years, first at Telkom, then at Vodacom and now at Cell C, where he has served as chief information and technology officer since 2020. Visser, an engineer, joined Cell C 13 years ago – during the tenure of former CEO Alan Knott-Craig – as an executive in the company's programme management office, where he helped lead a renewal of its radio access network. TechCentral's guest in the latest episode of the publication's Meet the CIO podcast, Visser tells host Duncan McLeod about his career journey in telecoms before delving into his work in helping transform Cell C's technology stack – with a focus on recent years as the operator moved to shut down its own radio access network in favour of partnerships with other mobile operators. In the interview, Visser chats about: • Where his interest in technology began; • His time with Telkom and Vodacom, including his experience helping build Vodacom's network in Mozambique; • The changes that have occurred at Cell C in recent years and why they're significant – including a look at the network partnership with MTN and Vodacom, and what that's allowed the company to do differently; • His day-to-day role as head of technology at Cell C; • The role of technology in supporting what is essentially a technology business; • The changes he has brought to Cell C's technology stack and why; • The recent ransomware attack – what happened, and what's been done to address it; and • What's exciting him about what's coming down the line in telecoms technology.

Datafree Technologies, the company behind popular zero-rated messaging tool MoyaApp, has an ambitious plan to build a R1-billion/year business by tapping to the APN market provided by the mobile operators. In this episode of the TechCentral Show (TCS), Datafree chief commercial officer Kruben Pillay tells Duncan McLeod about the company's plan to build a software-as-a-service-based APN – or “access point name” – to sell to businesses. An APN is a gateway that allows a mobile device to connect to the network and the internet. Datafree describes itself as a specialist in “mobile data optimisation” that “identified the opportunity to empower inclusive mobile connection by removing the data cost barrier to engage mobile audiences”. To do this, it uses reverse-billing technology for data, not dissimilar to the way toll-free numbers work for phone calls. Although many people use or are at least aware of MoyaApp, much less is known about Datafree. In this episode of TCS, Pillay tells McLeod more about the business. He also unpacks: • His history in the telecommunications industry, including his time at Vodacom and Telkom; • How MoyaApp is doing; • Datafree's R1-billion/year APN opportunity; and • How APNs work, why companies use them (and why they sometimes run into issues) and Datafree's APN services for business.

Communications minister Solly Malatsi, a DA MP and the first non-ANC politician to hold the key technology portfolio in the democratic era, has been in the job for three months – sufficient time to get a broad handle on the big issues. In this first interview with the TechCentral Show, TechCentral editor Duncan McLeod asks Malatsi a range of questions about the sector, including his views on how he plans to address some of the more intractable problems in his inbox. The interview, which was recorded on Friday, 4 October – shortly before he announced he was issuing a policy direction to communications regulator Icasa that could see a big change to empowerment rules governing licensing in the sector – covers a wide range of topics, from Elon Musk's Starlink to the ongoing feud between the SABC and Sentech. Other topics covered in the interview include: • The minister's engagements with Starlink and the recent meeting in New York between Musk and President Cyril Ramaphosa; • His views on black economic empowerment and why his top priority is reducing the cost of data and ensuring more South Africans can connect affordably to the internet and online services; • His plan for private sector participation in the Post Office, and whether the company is really worth saving; • The war between the SABC and Sentech, and how it can be resolved; • Future funding models for the SABC and the future of TV licences in South Africa; • The problems at the State IT Agency, and what the focus should be of government's central IT procurement and services provider; • The planned merger of Sentech and Broadband Infraco and why he believes it needs to happen; • Government's 40.5% stake in Telkom and what should happen to it; • The road to digital migration and whether there is still a need for terrestrial television in 2024; • 2G and 3G switch-off in South Africa and whether this should be mandated by the government; and • The legislative programme for the department of communications & digital technologies.

Brand and Communications Head for Mowana Properties, Iggy Sathekge gave us the low-down on the new shopping mall opening in the Queensburgh area - Malvern Park. Mowana Properties is responsible for managing the mall property. Residents of Queensburgh have been waiting with bated breath for the official date of the shopping mall's opening. When is Malvern Park opening to the public? Sathekge explained that the opening will occur on two levels: Today, 26 April, will see members of the Government Employee Pension Fund (GEPF) attending a ribbon-cutting process. “The government employee pension fund, who are the investors of a program like this, as well as the asset management entity under the PIC and various other stakeholders will be there,” he said. Sathekge explained that the official opening date to the public is planned for 31 May. Speaking about some of the stores that residents can visit, Sathekge named Dischem, Woolies Food, Foschini, Mr Price, MTN, Telkom, Burger King, KFC and Ocean Basket. “So it's a nice combination of different stores that are going to be there. So we're quite excited to have this,” he said. Store opening dates He noted that around two years ago, they conducted market research and spoke to residents of Malvern to find out what they would like to see in the new mall. “We listened to that, we went back and then we brought a really impressive combination of different stores that are going to be there on the day.” With regard to the staggered opening that many residents have had questions about, Sathekge explained that there are different tenants in the mall and some will be ready through the course of the month while others will only be ready toward the end of the month. “What we're saying is that those that are ready to trade from the 1st of May, we are happy for them to proceed and they will be trading. But the centre will officially open [on 31 May] and when I say officially open, it's when we will be doing all the activities on the day, the fun fairs and the promotions,” he said.= Visitors are welcome to walk the mall and get a feel of the centre as each store opens. Read More: Seen Meta AI's new logo? Here's what it means for you Safety and Parking Concerns Sathekge also touched on the safety measures in place for visitors. He noted that there would be security at the venue and that various other technologies would be installed around the centre. “So all those things will be taken care of and companies have been employed that will be ready to go,” he noted. In terms of parking, Sathekge confirmed that parking will be free at Malvern Park. The aim is to create a pleasant and easy environment for people to access without having to worry about paying for parking. Aside from the exciting opening set for 31 May, residents can also keep an eye out for a website. Currently, Malvern Park communications and updates are done through Facebook but Sathekge explained that a website will soon be up and running with more information and easier communication. “I've never seen such an engaged community like we have seen at Malvern. People are quite excited,” he said.

Market Updates: Recent news on Markus Jooste's fine and tragic passing prompts reflection on justice and mental health awareness. Telkom's sale of its towers business for R6.75 billion highlights strategic shifts and potential opportunities in the telecom sector. Ongoing rise in oil prices raises concerns about inflationary pressures and global economic impacts. Market Analysis and Insights: Gold's Surge: Gold prices hit new all-time highs above $2200, reflecting investor concerns and market sentiment following Jerome Powell's recent statements on inflation and monetary policy. Gold mining companies show varied responses, with Pan-African, Goldfields, DRD, and Anglogold Ashanti experiencing gains. Interest Rates and Economic Outlook: Powell's announcement of no immediate rate cuts and a projected total of three cuts for the year signals a cautious approach towards inflation. Rising interest rates pose challenges for companies with significant debt burdens, while those with ample cash reserves stand to benefit. Inflation and Monetary Policy: CPI data reflects higher-than-expected inflation rates, prompting speculation about potential rate cuts in South Africa and implications for economic recovery. Abenomics, Japan's economic policy experiment, demonstrates the effectiveness of unconventional monetary measures in stimulating growth and combating deflation. Company Updates and Reflections: Remgro Results: Remgro's net asset value growth raises questions about the effectiveness of its management strategy, despite trading at a significant discount. Remgro has grown its NAV per share by 5% p.a. since 2010. Over the same period, the ALSI TR index has done 12% p.a. If you expect this underperformance to continue (and nothing in their recent capital allocation decisions indicates otherwise), then a fair discount to NAV is… — Piet Viljoen (@pietviljoen) March 19, 2024 Contrasting performance with Sabvest Capital highlights the importance of superior returns and effective capital allocation in investment decisions.
