Answering a friend's question, Brazil has 154 Mn cell phone (April/09) and 81.6% out of them are pre paid plans. Yahoo's international revenues on 1Q/08 reached roughly 29% of the total (512/1,817), but on 1Q/09 its share fell to roughly 25% of the total revenues (392/1,580). And on y-o-y metric itnl revenues fell roughly 23,5% and the domestic one fell roughly 13%....That would mean: international online ad markets are slowing down on faster pace than US one, right? Oh really....I beg the differ, so as Yahoo itself on its quartely earning release, "exchange rate fluctuation"....Just a few examples:AUD/USD rough average for the 1Q/08: 0.91AUD/USD rough average for the 1Q/09: 0.67-----------------------------------------Change: -26%EUR/USD rough average for the 1Q/08: 1.51EUR/USD rough average for the 1Q/09: 1.31-----------------------------------------Change: -13%Yahoo doesn't disclosure the breakdown of currency exposure (or I couldn't find), but it stated "excluding rate fluctuation, revenues would fall 8%". Thus, International revenues would be roughly 483 Mn, or a 5,6% drop or 30.5% of the total revenues (an actual increase)....much better than the first impression....I can only hope that they start to disclosure the breakdown....I suspect that those figures are mainly impacted by Europe's dismal performance....I will get to the bottom of this 39% of Americans have a contract based phone and 26% out of them said they would chance to a pre paid phone ion order to save money. In 2008, China became the number one market (number of broadband subscribers).In 3 or 4 years from now (2012/2013), the sum of the BRICs (Brazil, Russia, India and China), Latin America and Eastern Europe a.k.a. Emerging Markets will have a bigger subscriber base than North America, Western Europe and Japan a.k.a. Developed Countries.I promise I won't change this post...I might add another one rectifying it tough Not gonna tell the end of the movie, you better watch... In 2007, USA was the biggest market by the number of households with internet, 69.9 Mn. On that year, China had 66.5 and EU (15 countries) 64.3.At the end of 2008, USA, China and EU had 78.9, 87.3 and 81.5 Mn users respectively. Brazil topped 5 Mn 3G subscribers on May/09 When?
