Telkom | Initiation I Driving data

Telkom provides investors with enhanced exposure to persistent growth in South African data demand. Over the past seven years, management has positioned TKG to benefit from increasing data demand through its mobile investments, fibre optic deployment and rationalisation of legacy business lines. Consequently, TKG has generated an annualised total return of 21% since FY'12 (MTN: +2%, VOD: +8%). We believe TKG's network data capacity is unmatched in SA and will allow it to maintain its superior value propositions in the market.

We initiate coverage with a 12-month target price of R95ps and an OUTPERFORM recommendation.
