The ISPs total valuation currently sits at about \u00a3115m and their currently planned deployment should deliver coverage to 48,906 premises.<\/p>\n<p>Going forward Gigaclear has also previously said that they have commercial plans to reach another 30-40K premises (around 80,000 total out of a theoretical &#8220;<em>addressable market<\/em>&#8221; of 1.5 million UK premises), which will require more investment.
