Sarana Menara Nusantara (Buy, IDR 780, +42%) Q3 25 Quick Take: Weaker...

Improved trends in Connectivity and FTTH were offset by Tower’s decline after lapping last year’s IBST acquisition. As a result, revenue came in flat while EBITDA slid lower. However, earnings growth improved to mid-single digits on lower D&A and non-operational costs. Our brief takeaway of the results below.

CMCSA 3Q25 Quick Take: Improved subscriber trends

Comcast reported broadband losses that were better than expected. On the call, we would be keen to hear the drivers behind the less negative subscriber trends and if these trends may continue into 4Q. We expect the stock to trade up on these results but where it likely winds up for the day will depend on commentary around 4Q trends.

HHS Continues to Pursue Wireless/Cancer Connection: Implications for I...

In what we assume was a Halloween homage for wireless investors, the New York Times published an article detailing how the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is ramping up its efforts to draw a link between cellphones and various health problems. We have analyzed Secretary Kennedy’s views on this in previous notes. In this note, we update our views on the implications of his actions for wireless investors.

​Investors are still concerned that the CHTR / TWC transaction could be blocked, as evidenced by a deal spread of 9%. The market appears to be giving the deal 50% odds of being approved. We think the market is way off the mark; this deal has high odds of approval.

Thematic Research - Quantifying The Impact From Part D Reform

In 2025, Big Pharma will be exposed to further US drug pricing reform as a result of the IRA act. This is the final big change to play out and we calculate there is the potential for a mid-single digit EBIT impact for some companies, but there is material heterogeneity in terms of the magnitude of the impact. There is also the potential for upside for Novo & LLY. However, given the significant complexity in the reimburse-ment changes & in computing the current sales in Medicare Part D, we are re...

Thematic - Obesity Drugs Won’t Change The World

Despite our bullish stance on Novo & the obesity drugs, in this note we aim to show the minimal impact they will have on the broader economy despite recent fears that new obesity drugs will have a material negative impact on a broad range of sectors. We show that these claims are well overblown in the near-term, with only 0.15% of the US population currently on anti-obesity drugs (AODs). Our forecasts, which point to a $50bn US market by 2030, imply that

Based on numbers leaked by The Information last week and our expertise in AI infrastructure costs, we estimated the P&L and compute costs that the company anticipates until 2029. We then put OpenAI’s projections into perspective: how do their compute costs compare to our forecast for the industry overall, how does the mix between training and inference compare to our projection, etc.
