We believe non-voice ARPUs are growing, but this is difficult to verify, given a general reluctance to add granularity to reported results. In any case, continued growth in messaging traffic suggests that such low-value services still account for a large proportion of income from non-voice services.

Key Data
- Finnish telecommunications company Elisa claimed that at least 87% of all new handsets sold in Q412 were smartphones. With this in mind, it is not surprising to find that wireless data subscriber numbers hit 5.755mn at the end of 2012, according to new data from the regulator, FICORA.
- The decline in fixed-line subscriptions accelerated as total subscriptions reached 890,000 at the end of 2012. Subscriptions declined 17.6% y-o-y.
