France Channel available @ Amazon Prime Video

 (Jul. 12, 2023)

France Channel  Debuts on Amazon Prime Video

"...Amazon Prime Video is the largest streaming-content provider worldwide with movies, series, original content and subscriptions to services such as Paramount Plus, Max, Discovery+ and now, France Channel. The partnership allows an estimated 146 million members of Amazon Prime in the U.S. to discover France through the largest ever offering of French titles, a majority of which have never been available in the United States.

According to Duolingo's data as of February of 2023, there are currently 20 million users on the app learning French. ..."

"..."We are very proud to be distributed on Amazon Prime Video Channels as it allows us to bring French Culture to the U.S.," said Julien Verley, chief executive officer and founder of France Channel. "Our assertion is that with the France Channel platform, many Americans will use it as an online discovery tool that serves as an alternative to physically traveling to France, but immersing oneself in the beauty of French Cinema and lifestyle...."

NETGEM a acheté Eclair Préservation et Eclair Digital Services

Avec la Acquisition des sociétés Eclair Préservation et Eclair Digital Services (et Rachat des intérêts minoritaires de Vitis en France), NETGEM se lance sur la diversification en 2023 avec l'objectif de transformer les éditeurs en centre de profits (vs centre de couts auparavant), stratégie déjà engagée avec Gaumont Classique ou France Channels, et de se renforcer dans d'autres segments.

https://www.netgem.com/fr/notre-expertise

Cela permettra à Netgem de compenser la perte de CA liée à la cession des activités Fibre (finalisée fin mars), sur le déclin, et les remplacer par des activités rentables qui ont, conjointement, un potentiel de développement plus attrayant (synergies à exploiter), souligne l'analyste Oddo.

 En outre, la valorisation des 2 deals apparait raisonnable, et l'impact relutif sur les BPA de la société devrait se situer entre +10% et +20% post-dilution sur 2024 (selon les hypothèses de synergies retenues)!

"Jianbo Wang, CEO of ZTE France & Benelux:

👉  “We are very pleased to work with Netgem on launching a new generation of TV & Streaming services, now available across our range of leading edge Android TV STBs and dongles. 

This combination of exciting Streaming services offers great opportunities for Telecom operators to differentiate themselves in a very cost effective way with innovative TV devices, and we will be building on this first launch with Zeop to expand the new joint proposition to more Operators across Europe.”"

"...Now Netgem can offer any operator wishing to evolve their TV UX and embrace more content, with a very fast time-to-market, running on any Android TV STB. 

Netgem not only offers a future-proof solution for Operators with a strong central innovation Roadmap, but also delivers savings in terms of Capex and Opex to the Operators with the combination of its Cloud-based aggregation Platform and cost-effective Android TV devices provided in partnership with ZTE."

Netgem launches latest Multiscreen TV service for ZEOP in France, with new Netgem UI on Android TV

Netgem launches a complete revamp of the Zeop TV product in the ‘La Reunion’ territory in France @ 2023-06-07

"Zeop TV, with a reach of 100,000+ customers, is at this occasion enhanced with 12 more Replay services, added to the best quality live experience, all accessible via the same acclaimed UI for ‘the most advanced TV service’, already running on Netgem TV boxes, Apple TV, Laptop browsers and Mobile Apps." (2023)

"Plus de 300 000 foyers sont déjà raccordables à la fibre et zeop poursuit son déploiement.  (2023)

The estimated number of Internet users in La Réunion is 480,000. ... La Réunion’s Internet market is highly competitive compared to the rest of France, with a choice of six service providers for a population of only 860,000 – a density of operators unique to the island. This high market penetration doesn’t mean an end to growth, however, as the rapid deployment of fibre-optic technology shows. When it comes to fibre to the home (FTTH), La Réunion is way ahead of France with approximately 75 percent of Réunionese homes now connectable. In locations where there are two or three co-existing fibre networks, of which Zeop is one, the high level of competition has helped the fast deployment of fibre over the whole island. (2019)"

Netgem: ARR growth > 20% in 2023

  

NETGEM anticipates ARR* growth of more than 20% in 2023.

"(...)

Dividend

Renewing its confidence in Netgem’s strategy and its ability to generate cash, and in view of the exceptional resources freed up by the sale of the Fiber business, the Board of Directors will propose to the General Meeting to increase the dividend from 3 cents to 5 cents per share.

Perspectives for 2023

As announced at the end of January 2023, Netgem has decided to initiate the sale of its Fiber business, which has been effective as of April 1, 2023 with a positive net cash effect of €3 million. The resources freed up will enable the Company to increase its investments in innovation in order to strengthen its market position.

The rapid evolution of the market towards standardized set-top box terminals based on androidTV should also allow the Group to withdraw from the sale of access equipment.

These changes in scope will enable the company to reduce its operating costs despite the inflationary context.

The Company anticipates ARR* growth of more than 20% in 2023. The cash flows generated by the subscribers base will thus be progressing and will be sufficient to finance this growth. (...)"

2023/03/31 - Netgem turnover 2022 and Outlook 2023

* "Annual recurring revenue (ARR) refers to all ongoing revenue for a product or business, projected over one year. Companies that offer yearly subscriptions use this metric to determine how much revenue they can expect each year."

Netgem renfoce avec Nordnet partenariat de long terme

(20 mars 2023)

Netgem finalise la cession de son activité Fibre France à Nordnet

Mathias HAUTEFORT, Directeur Général de Netgem, déclare : « Nous sommes heureux d’avoir finalisé cette opération, qui s'inscrit directement dans l’exécution de notre stratégie de recentrage sur notre cœur de métier, avec la société Nordnet, avec qui nous renforçons ainsi notre partenariat de long terme. Je suis convaincu que Nordnet constitue une excellente solution pour nos abonnés, que je remercie vivement de la confiance qu’ils nous ont témoignée. » 

A la suite de la conclusion de l'accord de cession annoncée le 10 février dernier, Netgem et Nordnet confirment la finalisation de cette cession avec effet au 1er avril 2023.

Le transfert à Nordnet des 10.000 abonnés à l'offre Fibre Videofutur se fera dans le respect des conditions techniques et contractuelles dont ceux-ci bénéficiaient jusqu'alors, sans impact notamment sur le prix de l'abonnement et les services associés, en particulier du service de télévision opéré par Netgem. 

Les abonnés pourront également se voir proposer dans un second temps des services complémentaires grâce à l'expertise reconnue en la matière de Nordnet, fournisseur d'accès depuis plus de 25 ans et filiale du groupe Orange.
