Telia (Neutral, TP: SEK 39, +23%) Q4 24: Slightly weak numbers, but solid trends, guidance reiterated

Telia has reported a sightly weak set of results at the revenue and EBITDA level (-0.4% and - 0.6% miss vs consensus expectations respectively), but ahead at OpFCF and FCF. Guidance has been reiterated for 2025. These results are not good enough to propel Telia into a new multiple range in our view, as numbers are unlikely to move up, but we think the share price move today is an over-reaction, given that y/y Telco SR and EBITDA trends have improved sequentially. If Telia can deliver on its promises and rhetoric, then there could be upside to numbers going forward (but probably not until H2 25, which is when SR is set to accelerate, but possibly before if it can front-end load the cost cutting).
