Massive payout drives valuation upwards

Magyar Telekom has reported solid results for the last quarter, and the full year
results exceeded management guidance. The full year adjusted net profit came
mostly in-line with guidance as net profit reached HUF 208.5bn. Management
increased the payout ratio to 90% and proposed a total shareholder remuneration of
HUF 186.4bn which exceeded our expectations. The initial guidance for 2026
assumes low single digit revenue and EBITDAaL growth YoY and mid-single digit
adjusted net profit growth. FCF is expected to be above HUF 200bn, ca. 10% lower
than last year. In our view, this is reasonable given the higher Capex need. We raise
our target price to HUF 2,420 based on our updated forecast and reiterate our BUY
recommendation for MTEL.
