Key findings    

Mobile services in the Czech Republic reached a penetration rate of 139.6% at the end of 2013 and generated $2.8bn in revenue during the year. The total number of fixed access lines declined by 2.6% in 2013, for 3.9m lines, while revenue from fixed services, including voice and Internet access, dropped by 3.1% to $1.6bn, despite a growing broadband segment. Czech telecom revenue has been hurt by the regulator introducing a number of price caps over the past few years. Because of intense competition and regulatory pressures, operators are looking at expanding their service portfolios and offering converged services in order to drive revenue growth, including the booming MVNO market segment.
