MTS 2Q 20 Earnings Preview - Weak profitability imposes no risk to base DPS
MTS is due to report its 2Q 20e results on August 19, 2020. We estimate that revenue should have remained flat yoy, as weaker roaming, sales of goods and entertainment should be offset by mobile data and banking. However, lower roaming and handset sales revenues should have a stronger impact on OIBDA and net profit, which are expected to decline at double-digit rate yoy. Nevertheless, we think that the free cash flow dynamics suggest no risk to the base DPS of RUB 28.Mobile Telesystems is a provider of mobile cellular communications services in the Russian Federation, Ukraine, Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan to consumers and corporate customers, employing technology based primarily on Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM).
