5G: Counting the cost picking the winners
5G progressing: Some markets now have spectrum
Operators now A standalone version of 5G("5G- s")was finalised by the 3GPP in July 2018, in 3GPP
incurring real costs Release 15. The standards are sufficient for vendors to construct end-to-end network
for 5G elements, as well as preliminary 5G devices. Operators in Korea and Australia have
already purchased 5G spectrum at auction. In China, on 7 December 2018, the MIIT
ssued allocations of mid-band 5G spectrum to the three china telcos for nationwide
trials, and in Japan allocations will be awarded in March 2019. Operators are therefore
beginning to incur real costs for 5G, in the form of spectrum fees and, in 2019, capex
though use cases are still not overly convincing
Still no killer apps'to After purchasing or being allocated 5G spectrum resources, operators want to use it to
drive demand provide additional low cost capacity(low cost on a per GB basis at least), and offload
or revenue traffic from congested 3G and 4G networks. Thus capacity provision is likely to be the
key initial driver for 5G rollout on the operator side. However, demand pull use cases are
lagging. There still seems to be no pressing need for nationwide 5G coverage for ' mass
market' consumers, in the way that video, and therefore content, e-commerce and gaming
were facilitated by stable speeds of over 4Mbps through 4G technology. This suggests
that gradual rollout using a hotspot approach would be the least damaging strategy for
profitability, but this strategy is unlikely to be acceptable in Japan, Korea or China
Nevertheless, 5G capex to commence in 2019
Spectrum payments Indeed, spectrum costs are already now a fact(at least, in Australia and Korea),and
incurred, capex capital is being deployed on equipment during 2019. We forecast rising capex-to-sales
commencing in 2019 ratios in Hong Kong, Korea, Japan and China across FY19-21. Given high 4G penetration
and what currently looks to be poor prospects for 5G monetisation, we expect returns on
invested capital (RoIC )to decline in Japan, China, Australia and Hong Kong across FY19
24. Facto
expected spectrum costs in Hong Kon
our DCF-based target
prices for Smar Tone, HKT Trust and HTHK by 9. 1%, 1.1% and 3.2%o, respectively, to
HK$1115, HK$13.05 and HK$3.05, respectively
Stock calls: Overweight 4G market repair situations
Top picks: DTAC, The proximity of real costs(spectrum fees and capex)-in contrast with a lack of clarity
PT Telkom and SingTel over the prospects of monetising 5G-leads us to adopt a relatively cautious stance on
telcos in China, Australia, Korea and Japan. Our top OUTPERFORM calls--namely
DTAC, PT Telkom and SingTelhave exposure to markets that look set to adopt a
gradual hotspot approach to 5G rollout, while they enjoy improving 4G dynamics. For
DTAC, the receipt of 2300MHZ spectrum in April 2018, followed by acquisition of 1800MHZ
spectrum in August 2018 and 850/900MHz spectrum in October 2018, confirms it as a
going concern,. Absence of Bt4.0 bn per quarter in concession-related depreciation
charges should help dTAC monetise the remaining 4G opportunity, and beat consensus
forecasts in FY19. PT Telkom is the only liquid way to invest in 4G 'market repairin
Indonesia, and is best placed for 5G rollout in terms of both cellular and fibre network
resources. While SingTel is exposed to competition in the domestic Singapore market, due
to the entry of TPG, this represents a small proportion of SingTel's sum-of-the parts. Its
associates in Indonesia and Thailand, benefiting from market repair and low 5G capex
risk, and much more material drivers of SingTel. We are also less negative on SingTel's
exposure to the competitive dynamics in India as we look forward, given that Jio has
already reached 25.0% market share by revenue On a two-year view, it is reasonable to
expect Jio to starting behaving more like an incumbent-focused on monetising its existing
and less like a new entrant cutting

5G progressing: Some markets now have
spectrum
Standards for standalone (5G-s)already set
The 3GPP-the de-facto standard-setting body for 5G-announced the first version of the
3GPP 5G standard in December 2017. This standard, termed 5G non-standalone (5G
NS"), requires 4G-LTE(both LTE radio and LtE core) to act as an anchor for the 5G
network and therefore 5G-ns acts an as overlay on an existing 4G network
Standalone version of A standalone version of 5G (5G-s")was finalised by the 3GPP in July 2018, in 3GPP
5G(5G-s")finalised Release 15. This release brought a new end-to-end infrastructure facilitating the ability to
in July 2018 deploy 5G independently, without the need for LTE (neither LTE radio nor LTE core)as an
anchor to operate. While a further step in 5G standardisation comes with 3GPP's Release
16, known as '5G phase 2, currently scheduled for December 2019, the 5G-S standards
set in July 2018 are sufficient for vendors to construct end-to-end network elements, as
well as preliminary 5G devices. Operators with appropriate licences and spectrum
resources are now therefore in a position to broaden 5G tests and move towards full
commercial launch
So, what actually constitutes 5G? Crucially, both 5G-NS and 5G-s use OFDM(orthogonal
frequency division multiplexing) as the radio access waveform, the same radio waveform
used in 4G-LTE. Thus, in itself, the improvement in spectral efficiency(bps/Hz from a 5G
RAN (radio access network) versus a 4G RAN is actually substantially lower than the
increase seen in previous generation upgrades (4G VS 3G, 3G vs 2G etc)
However, several aspects of 5G technology come together to produce higher speeds
(circa 10X 4G levels, at up to 20Gbps), and lower latency (circa 1/30th 4G levels, a 1
millisecond)for users, as well as dramatically higher capacity for operators

Those aspects include beam forming, which directs capacity to a device on the move,
multi-user MIMO Multiple In-Multiple Out), which allows devices to receive multiple
allocations of capacity, distributed cores, which allow core network resources to be
positioned closer to customers, and network slicing, which allows a portion of core and
radio network to be dedicated to a specific user or user group
Wider channel The other critical factor is wider channel bandwidths Release 16 allows radio carriers
bandwidths are crucial up to 1000MHz wide, compared to the 20MHz maximum carrier width of 4G(LTE)
Operators are currently achieving high speeds (up to 2 Gbps)on LTE by aggregating
several 10-20MHz channels. The signalling used to support such carrier aggregation
Asla Telecoms sector

creates inefficiencies. 5G can therefore boost efficiency by using wider single bands to
begin with, obviating the need for carrier aggregation and therefore reducing signaling
overhead. The key implication of this is that additional spectrum resources-with much
wider carrier bands--are needed
and spectrum has been issued in Korea, China
and Australia(with issuance in Japan by end March)
Thus, to enjoy the significantly higher speeds and improved performance of 5G(higher
capacity and lower latency), operators require additional spectrum resources in larger
quantities(.e, in wider carrier allocations, of circa 100MHz per block)
Additional spectrum, in wider blocks, is primarily available at higher spectrum bands that
were previously unused. Thus, the 3GPP standard-setters were focusing on standardising
the 3.5GHz and mmWave, e.g,(28GHz) bands, (in addition to the sub-26GHz bands
which are already being used for 2G, 3G and 4G cellular services)

Thus far in Asia, 5G spectrum auctions and allocations have primarily focused on the'mid-
band spectrum, at 2.6GHz through 4.9GHZ. Very much as expected, Korea, Japan and
China, with their equipment lobbies, regulatory pressure and(in China) government
ownership, are at the forefront of 5G trials and spectrum issuance in Asia, together with
Australia. These allocations fall broadly in line with leading global markets
