Subex Sells Activation Business To NetCracker

Subex Ltd, a provider of Business Support Systems (BSS) for Communications Service Providers (CSPs), has announced that it has signed an Asset Purchase Agreement with NetCracker for the sale of its Activation business. NetCracker is a Telecom OSS player and part of the US$ 40 Billion NEC group. The Activation business that is being sold off consists of Service Fulfilment solution (NetProvisioning, NetOptimizer and Vector).

The decision to sell the Activation business is an outcome of a change in Subex strategy to focus on its core products, i.e. ROC Solutions (Revenue Assurance, Fraud Management, Partner Settlement, Data Integrity Management etc.) and Managed Services.

“The market is changing and so are the operator’s needs, to remain competitive. Market evolution is towards solutions that allow CSPs to combine data with insights to trigger customer centric near real time decisions. This enables operators to deliver superior customer experience profitably. Being the leader in the Business Optimisation space, Subex is strategically positioned to take advantage of these growth areas through its ROC and Managed Services Portfolio. Hence we have taken a strategic decision to focus on our core products, i.e. ROC Solutions (Revenue Assurance, Fraud Management, Partner Settlement, Data Integrity Management etc.) and Managed Services,” said Subash Menon, Founder Chairman, Managing Director and CEO, Subex Ltd.

“This decision and the renewed focus will enable us in growing our revenues over 20% annually with positive growth in EBITDA and will make us a significant force in the industry,” added Menon.
