Corporate transformations & turnarounds
By providing straightforward advice from seasoned industry executives, Harberry&Co. assists industry executives, boards, their counsel and government agencies in resolving challenging strategic problems within the telecommunications industry.
Acting as advisors, consultants, non-executive directors and interim executives, our partners have a proven track record in formulating and implementing strategies to achieve the successful turnaround and/or transformation of listed telecommunications companies.
We manage large and complex cases
We have applied our expertise to a range of scenarios. However, the majority of our engagements involve matters where the quantum exceeds US$50 million, and we have proven experience working on multi-billion US dollar cases.
Our Approach
Our clients look to us for effective solutions rather than endless slide decks.
Analysis is always required. We call this process ‘Experienced Analysis’, bringing to bear the expertise and experience of our partners to focus on the things that matter. We will cut through any distractions and quickly identify the real levers of control.
We combine our experience and knowledge with that of our clients through a thorough scenario planning exercise to assess the impact of the levers of control.
We will create an implementation roadmap and policy framework and guidelines (if required), against which progress can be measured.
Our recent successes include:
The turnaround/transformation of a listed telecommunications company. Transforming losses at a public listed company of US$500M per annum to long term sustained net profitability. This case included successfully managing a US$660M claim for damages.
The transformation of a telcos gross margin from 35% to 65% through a successful, multiyear, digitalisation programme.
Growth in a mobile telecommunications company’s revenues, in a stagnant market.
Implementation of biometric identity during the SIM registration process to save tens of millions of US$ annually.
The grant of a fixed license for a mobile telecommunications company.
The reduction of the mobile termination rate (MTR) by over 60%, leading to retail market growth.
