SoftBank Ups Capex Forecast

SoftBank said that its sales were almost flat year-on-year in the quarter ending September 30 at 682.9 billion yen (7.47 billion US dollars) as a revenue decline in its fixed-line divisions canceled out a 6% rise in its mobile unit. Mobile data ARPU climbed to 1,990 yen in the quarter ending September 30, up from 1,710 yen in the same quarter of 2008.

SoftBank upped its capital spending forecast for the year ending March 31, 2010 by 40 billion yen to 260 billion yen, which would be the same as the previous year. source: SoftBank presentation
