 Business Overview
The UAE-based Emirates Integrated Telecommunication Company (du) provides fixed, mobile, broadband, IPTV and broadcasting services. Du broke Etisalat’s 30-year monopoly, when it was established in 2005.

The company provides satellite broadcasting services to regional and international media companies, through its subsidiary, du Broadcasting Services (Samacom); it also provides telecommunications services, through three other subsidiaries, in the UAE.

The company’s annual mobile subscribers grew by 25% to 4.3 million, by the end of 2010, while its fixed line, broadband, IPTV and broadcasting subscribers together grew by 38%, annually, to 561,000.

Du held 40% of the mobile market in the UAE, in 2010. It grew its annual profits by 396% to AED1.3 billion (USD356 million) and its total revenues by 32.51% to AED7 billion (USD2 billion), in 2010.
