Bharti-Zain Deal Analysis
The Bharti Zain deal is old news now A quick look at the Zain September 2009 data ndash ninemonths of the year only ndash gives us a view of what Bharti is buying
As you might notice Nigeria is the bull in the room It‟s still not profitable with a loss of $88mon revenues of $986m and accounts for 13rd of Zain Africa‟s revenues (Zain does not classify
Sudan or Morocco as ldquoAfricardquo and is not selling those to Bharti)
Yet Nigeria has hope Zain has only 25 market share and the market penetration is just 45 ndash scope to grow Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) in Africa ranges from $3 to $10 with Nigeriaat $7 This compares favourably with India where Airtel‟s ARPU is $5 (Rs 230)

The story from Mint is that Bharti is looking to finance the Zain deal from a $7 billion USD loan ndash remaining $2bn will be from Indian rupee loans - at a rate of 300 bps (300) over LIBORThis is suspect ndash they were offering to pay 320 points for the smaller $3 bn loan for MTN lastyear still LIBOR is at an all time low of about 088

httpslidepdfcomreaderfullbharti-zain-online-info 29
The 10 year average of LIBOR is 375 and we shouldn‟t expect these low LIBOR rates to lasttoo long At even 2 of LIBOR and a 300 bps premium and 8 for the Indian bit Bharti will
pay $500m per year in interest
That means they have to improve EBIDTA by $500m just to pay for the deal currently EBIDTAis $13bn so it‟s got to scale by 40 for Bharti to get a chunk They can definitely improve somebits ndash tower costs in Africa have been 4x more than India which can be lowered and internalefficiencies can be improved The local mafia in Africa will be tougher to handle (they take thelucrative deals and back- peddle commissions) where in India Mittal‟s political connectionswould have helped in the early stages
I‟m not taking a short term call on this stock If anything each person is supposed to make hisown decisions and I‟ll see what the market price has to say If this deal is immensely profitable
Bharti should hit new highs if it‟s not and Africa is a laggard the prices won‟t move It isn‟t ashort right now but it isn‟t a buy either They‟re overpaying for the deal but money is cheapnowadays and ldquoexpensiverdquo is more affordable than you think It‟s a definite sign of desperation but I wouldn‟t write off a juggernaut like Bharti just yet
