ORANGE BELGIUM - Regulator’s change of course prompts strategy rethink

We have lowered our EBITDAaL forecasts for Orange Belgium by 3-5% factoring in the implications of the draft decision by the CRC and the impact of the Corona outbreak. We think the regulator’s update on cable wholesale tariffs may accelerate network investments by Orange Belgium, including a potential revamp of its fiber ambitions through, for instance, co-investment with Proximus. Following our downward estimate revisions and a higher risk of future capex increases, we lower our TP to € 23 (from € 27). We reiterate BUY as we still think Orange Belgium is fundamentally undervalued whilst offering a great balance of growth and stability in our view.
