- und daher habe ich mir nach dem Einstieg bei Alibaba, die inzwischem mehr als 20% gut gemacht haben, auch einige Rakutens gekauft.

Look Out Amazon, Here Comes...Rakuten?
Japanese e-commerce firm Rakuten announced on Tuesday it is acquiring Ebates for $1 billion.

The acquisition, which Rakuten hinted at last week, is part of the Japanese company’s push to grow its base beyond its domestic market and hopefully, become a global player. Having made some $1.2 billion acquisitions to date along these lines, this is Rakuten’s most ambitious move to date.

However, investors are dubious that the company can absorb yet another foreign acquisition, much less one the size of Ebates, despite Rakuten’s strong cash position.
Then there is the ever-present Amazon, which dominates the e-commerce market in the U.S. Few believe it will falter in the face of Chinese giant Alibaba, much less a Rakuten-Ebates combo.

Rakuten Goes Forth

Not surprisingly, Rakuten says it is undaunted. For starters, it has assembled a very interesting mix of acquisitions. There is messaging app Viber, which it purchased for $900 million in February, the Canadian ebook offering Kobo, Spanish video service Wuaki.tv, Viki, a digital content platform and Buy.com.
Now it has picked up Ebates.

Is the telecommunications industry behind the AI curve? The industry says no, of course — but why?

Is the telecommunications industry behind the AI curve? During a session at last week’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona that sought to answer this question, KT’s Chief Responsible AI Officer Soonmin Bae and Rakuten Symphony’s Chief Marketing Officer Geoff Hollingworth both said no, not at all. Of course they did, right? Telcos are not known for being leaders in the adoption of new tech, but the speakers provided the following reasons as to why AI might be different.

Boost's network chief talks up AI RAN integration with open RAN

Eben Albertyn, a top executive at EchoStar, hinted at Boost Mobile's interest in leveraging its open RAN investments in the development of AI RAN technology.

Mike Dano, Editorial Director, 5G & Mobile Strategies
April 17, 2025

Eben Albertyn, EVP and CTO of EchoStar and its Boost Mobile 5G network, said the operator's open radio access network (RAN) design will make it easier for Boost to embrace AI RAN technology.
"The ... thing that's important to remember about open RAN is that open RAN and what people are calling AI RAN are not competitive to each other. They're orthogonal to each other," Albertyn said during a keynote session at the Competitive Carriers Association (CCA) event in Denver Wednesday.
"And because of how open RAN works and how it's been put together, it is far easier to introduce AI RAN components into open RAN than it is any other technology," Albertyn said.

If you’ve been putting off trying Rakuten, the time to jump in is now. Rakuten (formerly known as Ebates) is offering an enhanced sign-up bonus of USD 40 or 4,000 Membership Rewards points for new members who make a qualifying purchase through the platform.

What is Rakuten?

Rakuten is a cashback shopping portal that partners with thousands of online retailers — including Apple, Macy’s, Nike, and even travel booking platforms like Booking.com and Expedia — to offer you a percentage of your spend back in the form of cashback. But here’s the kicker: if you opt in to earn American Express Membership Rewards instead of cashback, you can supercharge your loyalty strategy (only for American members).

Rakuten Mobile and AST SpaceMobile Complete Video Call Over Satellite in Japan

By Mark Holmes April 24, 2025

Japanese mobile network operator Rakuten Mobile and AST SpaceMobile completed what they claim is the first-ever broadband video call between unmodified smartphones in Japan using a Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite. This milestone comes ahead of Rakuten’s plans to launch the Saikyo Satellite Service powered by AST SpaceMobile next year. Rakuten Mobile announced the milestone, April 23.
Rakuten Mobile aims to expand connectivity across Japan – including mountainous regions, remote islands and in emergency situations. As part of the strategic partnership launched over five years ago, Rakuten Group and AST SpaceMobile aim to provide satellite-to-mobile broadband services (voice calls, video calls and more) in Japan starting in the fourth quarter of 2026.

Samsung played a role in historic Rakuten x AST SpaceMobile satellite video call!

Samsung made history in Japan, even though its name wasn't mentioned.

It's a historic week for Rakuten Mobile and, in a way, for Samsung's mobile division. On April 22, Rakuten, Japan's newest mobile network, made the country's first-ever broadband video call through a low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite connection. Incidentally, the satellite video call appears to have been made using unmodified Samsung Galaxy smartphones.

Although this is not a world-first satellite video call, it is a huge milestone for the Japanese mobile industry, the carrier, and the technology providers involved. The video call brings the Rakuten Saikyo Satellite Service one giant step closer to launch.

Rakuten: Worry Less About Credit Risks And Mobile Division Losses

Apr. 25, 2025

Summary

My Buy rating for Rakuten Group is unchanged, as I think that investors' major concerns about the stock have eased.

RKUNF's credit health is expected to improve in the future; the company has targeted reducing its net leverage metric by half within the next 2 years.

RKUNY's wireless unit is anticipated to become EBITDA-positive in FY25 on the back of subscriber growth and ARPU expansion.

I am The Value Pendulum. I have over a decade of buy-side and sell-side experience in Asian equity markets. I lead the investing group Asia Value & Moat Stocks.

I remain bullish on Rakuten Group, Inc.

The company's loss-making MNO ("Mobile Network Operations") segment and its balance sheet weakness have become less of a concern. This is why my rating is still a Buy.

Global cloud communications platform Infobip has become a Platinum Partner of Rakuten Viber. As a Platinum Partner, Infobip will be able to offer its customers early access to new products and features as well as getting priority access to a knowledge center. Infobip’s elevation to Platinum Partner marks another achievement in its ongoing mission to enhance digital communication strategies for businesses worldwide.

Over eight years, Rakuten Viber has integrated with Infobip’s platform, becoming a key OTT channel. The collaboration has enabled businesses to use Viber for direct, rich media interactions with customers, enhancing user experiences, and helping customers in their digital transformation journey.
One recent example is Metrobank, the second-largest private universal bank in the Philippines.
Metrobank partnered with Infobip to integrate Viber rich business messaging into its customer communication strategy, enhancing its operations with a trusted and secure digital platform. Utilizing Infobip’s plug-and-play solution, Metrobank seamlessly incorporated Viber business messages into its existing processes with minimal effort. In no time, the bank began delivering personalized, rich content messages, including images and videos, to millions of consenting customers. This strategic move not only created a unique customer experience but also resulted in up to 50% cost savings compared to traditional SMS messaging, as Metrobank effectively communicated its latest offerings through Viber’s rich media capabilities.

Ramon Martin Rodriguez, Performance Marketing Head at Metrobank, said: “Infobip provided a solution that enabled us to quickly start benefitting from using Viber for Business for sending marketing messages, using both a portal and an integration with our CRM system. The integration was extremely easy to set up with no disruption to our businesses processes, and no requirement to involve technical resources from other departments. We have been very satisfied with the entire process.”

Wireless Unit Should Gain Subscribers And Expand ARPU

RGI's MNO segment is still in the red, and this hurts the stock in two ways. One is that its leverage stays elevated due to a high level of borrowings and operating losses. Another factor is this division's drag on the company's group-level profit.

The wireless business' EBITDA loss shrunk from -JPY 0.15 trillion for FY23 to -¥54B in FY24. My prediction is that this unit will realize EBITDA-breakeven this year in line with management guidance.
The future profitability of RKUNY's mobile operations is heavily influenced by its topline due to fixed-cost leverage effects.

Given the capital-intensive nature of telco services, RKUNF needs to spread its non-variable expenses over a bigger revenue base. I'm optimistic that it can acquire new wireless users and earn more money from them on a per-user basis.
