Indonesian Telcos Q1 24 review: Improvements across the board; final consolidation move imminent?

Indonesian operators posted better trends across the board. Both Indosat and XL continue to benefit from their ex-Java expansion (where prices are typically higher) as their mobile ARPU were up double-digits. Meanwhile, Telkomsel is also recovering with IndiHome maintaining its MSD growth as it moves into the low and mid value segment. Importantly, official announcements suggests that the XL and Smartfren merger is imminent which bodes well for the wider market repair story but is slightly negative to Towers in the medium term
