Vivo (Buy, TP: BRL55, +38%) Telefonica Brasil / Vivo Q4s - Dividend resolution in sight

Vivo Q4s reported after close were solid, coming in 1-2% ahead at revenue and EBITDA. Perhaps more crucially for the stock Vivo has also started the process of asking Anatel for a Capital stock reduction of BRL5 billion. This should remove dividend overhang on the stock and pave the way for a yield - along with a BRL500m buy back - which should be in the 8-9% range we think.

Vivo (Buy, TP: BRL61, +15%) Vivo - Q4 23: Double digit EBITDA growth, improving cash returns

Vivo reported a good set of Q4s, with a 2% EBITDA beat taking growth to 10% y/y, or 6% in real terms. Wireless service revenue growth is running ahead of peers with post-paid adds very strong; fixed has been consistently growing now at 2-3% for a few quarters. Capex came in at a shade below BRL9 billion, a level in absolute terms which think can be maintained for the coming years (and implying falling as % sales).

TIM/Vivo - Maintain Buys; Solid Wireless supported by improving Tower dynamics

Despite the 40-45% rally YTD we continue to like the Brazilian Telco stocks. Wireless operator dynamics remain very favourable with FCF supported significantly for TIM in the near-term by Oi tower decommissioning, with a potentially broader reset for the industry relative to the Tower cos over the mid-term (part of a broader EM theme perhaps following IHS in Nigeria).

Vivo (Buy, TP: BRL61, +30%) Vivo Q3 23 – Solid quarter, strong FCF paves way for bumper cash return

Vivo reported solid Q3s, with revenue and EBITDA (stripping out a BRL175m gain) 1.2% and 1.5% ahead of consensus, respectively. Service revenue grew 7.5% YoY (similar to Q2) driven by 3% growth in fixed and 9% in wireless, and remaining well ahead of inflation (which is creeping up again in Brazil). FCF generation, supported by falling capex, remains a highlight, with YTD of BRL7.6 billion representing >10% yield to equity – there will be more to come in Q4. FCF paves the way for the BRL5 billion capital stock reduction which we expect in early 2024.

Alphabet (GOOGL, Buy, $213 target) Forget Chrome, 3P payments are the heart of the issue

Yesterday the DOJ filed its proposed remedies in the Search antitrust case. The recommended divestiture of Chrome drew most of the headlines. And while potentially very negative for GOOGL (as are all proposed remedies), we don’t believe it is the most impactful to the market for general search services.

SATS: DBS merger breaks

According to press reports, TPG will call off the merger today. For the merger to proceed, bondholders needed to agree to a debt exchange. Apparently, they have rejected the exchange. Our quick thoughts in this brief note.

3Q24 Broadband Trends: FWA capacity limits; FWA demand limits

In this iteration of “Broadband Trends” we update our FWA capacity forecast. We also touch on early signs that demand for FWA may be limited, which could prevent mobile operators from reaching capacity limits (or force them to work harder to get there). This could have a big impact on the pace of Cable subscriber growth. Finally, we reprise our work on the competitive positioning of the various operators based on relative NPS scores.
