Orange (Buy, TP: €14, +47%) Altice France (SFR) - Most preferred Iliad - Equal Weight French mobile pricing changes: over-reaction, Orange looks over sold

There has been a lot of focus on the recent change in mobile price points from SFR/Bouygues. Orange has underperformed the CAC40 by c10% over the last 10 days. Most commentary we have seen, seems to worry that the move by SFR will start a new price war at the high end. We think that is probably not going to happen, and explain why in this report. That is good news for Orange, that looks oversold in our view.
