<\/figure>By Nqobile Dludla<\/strong>JOHANNESBURG: South Africa<\/a>'s fourth-biggest mobile operator<\/a> Cell C<\/a> said it made a first-half profit of $10 million on Wednesday, recovering from a $513 million loss a year earlier, as a turnaround strategy bore fruit.
Cell C, in which Blue Label Telecoms<\/a> owns a 45% stake, reported a 148 million rand ($10 million) profit before tax in the six months to the end of June, from a loss of 7.6 billion rand in the same period of 2020.
<\/div><\/div>As part of the strategy, Cell C is sourcing new loans with easier funding terms to replace existing debt.
\"A recapitalisation is the final pillar in Cell C's turnaround strategy and will provide momentum to effectively manage the transition, focus on profitable revenue growth and the overall simplification of the cost base,\" it said.
Cell C's turnaround plan also involved decommissioning its network sites and moving customers to rivals Vodacom and MTN<\/a>, giving its subscribers access to broadband and high-speed 4G connections.
It pays roaming fees to MTN and Vodacom for their network but also competes with them by attracting more profitable customers through specialised products such as data bundles.
This has saved the company from spending billions to set up and maintain towers and fibre networks.
Cell C Chief Executive Douglas Craigie Stevenson<\/a> said it has successfully migrated 40% of its network, with access to 7,500 towers and in two years it will have access to more than 12,500 sites, \"improving the quality and coverage of our network\".
Its turnaround steps have helped sustain average revenue per user (ARPU) at 66 rand year-on-year while raising the prepaid customer base by 15% to 9.6 million, Craigie Stevenson added.
