OTE (Hellenic Telecoms) | Picking up speed

In our new detailed note on OTE, we argue that upselling to high-speed fixed broadband has been accelerating in Greece and is set to gather further momentum in the coming months, paving the way for price inflation. We also show that operators’ more-for-more strategy continues unfettered, thereby underpinning the monetization of data usage growth.

We reiterate OTE as one of our top picks in Greece, with the stock now offering similar cash returns vs. the EU telecom sector while continuing to trade at a notable EV/EBITDA discount vs. the sector.
