NuRAN Announces 20 New Sites in March
NuRAN Wireless has announced the deployment of 20 new network sites in rural Africa during March 2025, falling short of their targeted 42 sites due to transit delays affecting 21 towers in the DRC inventory. Despite this setback, the company has deployed 40 new sites in 2025 and maintains its target of 204 sites by June's end.
The company reports that current live sites are showing growth in revenue per site, enabling NuRAN to meet its revenue forecast for the reporting period. The temporary delay in deployment is not expected to impact their targeted goals as they continue focusing on network expansion across African markets.
NuRAN Wireless ha annunciato il dispiegamento di 20 nuovi siti di rete in Africa rurale durante marzo 2025, al di sotto del target di 42 siti a causa di ritardi nel transito che hanno colpito 21 torri nell'inventario della RDC. Nonostante questo contrattempo, l'azienda ha già attivato 40 nuovi siti nel 2025 e mantiene l'obiettivo di 204 siti entro la fine di giugno.
L'azienda riporta che i siti attivi attuali mostrano una crescita delle entrate per sito, permettendo a NuRAN di soddisfare le previsioni di fatturato per il periodo di riferimento. Il ritardo temporaneo nel dispiegamento non dovrebbe influenzare i loro obiettivi, poiché continuano a concentrarsi sull'espansione della rete nei mercati africani.
NuRAN Wireless ha anunciado el despliegue de 20 nuevos sitios de red en África rural durante marzo de 2025, quedándose por debajo de su objetivo de 42 sitios debido a retrasos en el tránsito que afectaron a 21 torres en el inventario de la RDC. A pesar de este contratiempo, la empresa ha desplegado 40 nuevos sitios en 2025 y mantiene su objetivo de 204 sitios para finales de junio.
La empresa informa que los sitios activos actuales están mostrando un crecimiento en los ingresos por sitio, lo que permite a NuRAN cumplir con sus previsiones de ingresos para el período de informe. Se espera que el retraso temporal en el despliegue no impacte sus objetivos, ya que continúan enfocándose en la expansión de la red en los mercados africanos.
NuRAN Wireless는 2025년 3월에 아프리카 농촌 지역에 20개의 새로운 네트워크 사이트를 배포했다고 발표했습니다. 이는 21개의 타워가 있는 DRC 재고의 운송 지연으로 인해 목표한 42개 사이트에 미치지 못하는 수치입니다. 이러한 차질에도 불구하고, 회사는 2025년에 40개의 새로운 사이트를 배포했으며 6월 말까지 204개의 사이트 목표를 유지하고 있습니다.
회사는 현재 활성 사이트에서 사이트당 수익이 증가하고 있다고 보고하며, 이는 NuRAN이 보고 기간 동안 수익 예측을 충족할 수 있도록 합니다. 배포의 일시적인 지연은 그들의 목표에 영향을 미치지 않을 것으로 예상되며, 아프리카 시장에서의 네트워크 확장에 계속 집중하고 있습니다.
NuRAN Wireless a annoncé le déploiement de 20 nouveaux sites réseau en Afrique rurale en mars 2025, en deçà de son objectif de 42 sites en raison de retards de transit affectant 21 tours dans l'inventaire de la RDC. Malgré ce contretemps, l'entreprise a déployé 40 nouveaux sites en 2025 et maintient son objectif de 204 sites d'ici la fin juin.
L'entreprise rapporte que les sites actifs actuels montrent une croissance des revenus par site, permettant à NuRAN de respecter ses prévisions de revenus pour la période de reporting. Le retard temporaire dans le déploiement ne devrait pas affecter leurs objectifs ciblés, car ils continuent de se concentrer sur l'expansion du réseau sur les marchés africains.
NuRAN Wireless hat die Bereitstellung von 20 neuen Netzstandorten in ländlichem Afrika für März 2025 angekündigt, was unter dem angestrebten Ziel von 42 Standorten liegt, da Transitverzögerungen 21 Türme im Inventar der DRC betroffen haben. Trotz dieses Rückschlags hat das Unternehmen 40 neue Standorte im Jahr 2025 bereitgestellt und hält an seinem Ziel von 204 Standorten bis Ende Juni fest.
Das Unternehmen berichtet, dass die aktuellen aktiven Standorte ein Wachstum der Einnahmen pro Standort zeigen, was es NuRAN ermöglicht, die Umsatzprognose für den Berichtszeitraum zu erfüllen. Es wird nicht erwartet, dass die vorübergehende Verzögerung bei der Bereitstellung ihre angestrebten Ziele beeinträchtigt, da sie weiterhin auf den Ausbau des Netzwerks in den afrikanischen Märkten fokussiert bleiben.
