StarHub to increase its LTE roll-out

Cash capex is then expected to be 11% of its operating revenue.

Here's more from OCBC:

Previous guidance largely unchanged
Going forward, StarHub has maintained its previous guidance for the rest of the year, with revenue expected to grow in the low single-digit range. It has also kept service EBITDA margin outlook of about 30%, versus 32.1% achieved in 1H12, citing the impending launch of the iPhone 5 as the main reason.

Cash capex will be ~11% of operating revenue, versus no more than 11% previously, because it may accelerate its LTE roll-out with more LTE-enabled handsets expected to enter the market. Finally, it will continue with its S$0.05/share dividend per quarter, or a total dividend of S$0.20 this year, despite the likely higher capex spend in 2H12.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
