He added: "We are working to a two to three year plan...[that] involves undertaking a series of 'intelligent' synergistic transactions that will grow NetComm's diversity and build wealth. To contain risk, the first transactions will be relatively modest. However, subsequent transactions could ramp quickly in scale and value in line with the expected uplift in NetComm's share price over the life of the strategy." A slide presented by Stewart to the meeting indicated that the company expects value added services to account for a significant but minority portion of revenues in 2008 and the majority by 2009-2010. Another slide listed possible services as being equipment rental, support, VoIP, Internet connections, managed services and VPNs for the consumer, SOHO and vertical markets; with the addition later on of intelligent home and energy management services. The company currently provides a range of 3G/Next G access devices and the slide indicated that WiMAX products would be added. However, in his address, chairman Terry Winters observed that "Exciting technologies such as WiMAX may actually end up being killed at birth by mobile technologies like Next G and 3G." |
