OTE (Hellenic Telecoms) | More-for-more
In our new note, we present the latest trends in both Greece and Romania, arguing that the evolution of headline pricing in H2’17 coupled with upcoming price increases in Q2’18 are likely to underpin healthy growth in Greek revenues and profitability. On that basis, we expect 2018 to mark the turning point for OTE’s group adj. EBITDA after 10 years of declines. In terms of valuation, we argue that the stock deserves to trade at par with EU telcos given the return to operating profit growth, the rising shareholder returns (7% in 2019 from 4.5% in 2018) and the scope for future re-leveraging.
