Adding CenturyLink to Our Best Ideas List in June, as We Think the Market Is Overly Pessimistic
CenturyLink clearly faces challenges with declining sales. Its subpar consumer network, relative to cable competitors, has led to net customer losses each quarter over the last few years, and enterprise networks are being hurt by multiple secular trends and a deflationary pricing environment, especially harmful for a firm that we determined is not protected by a moat. However, we think market bearishness has gotten carried away, and we added CenturyLink to our Best Ideas list in June. At current...CenturyLink, via its subsidiaries, is a communications company engaged in providing an array of integrated services to its business and residential customers. The company's segments include: International and Global Accounts Management, which provides products and services to global enterprise customers; Enterprise, which provides products and services to regional domestic and global enterprises; Small and Medium Business, which provides products and services to small and medium businesses directly and through its indirect channel partners; and Wholesale, which provides products and services to other communication providers across the wireline, wireless, cable, voice and data center sectors.
