1&1 (Neutral, €22, +10%) United Internet (Neutral, €31, +13%) Telefonica (Neutral, €4.3, -2%) What’s 1&1 worth to Telefonica?

With the Telefonica CMD around the corner (4 November), we revisit our 1&1 valuation and reassess potential synergies from German mobile consolidation. We estimate a transaction could value 1&1 equity at €6.7bn (€38/ share, +90% upside) assuming synergies are split equally, or potentially higher if Vodafone were also to bid.
