VEON 2Q 20 Earnings Preview - Expected results may indicate insignificant FY 21e yield

VEON is due to report its 2Q 20e results on August 6, 2020. We expect revenues and EBITDA decline ex-FX and one-off effects at -6% yoy and -10% yoy, respectively, which stands against the high, single-digit percentage revenue decline and mid-teens EBITDA decline in April, indicated at the 1Q 20 results announcement. We also forecast that VEON could have deferred some of the capital spending in 2Q 20e considering the uncertainty, which should have supported free cash flow generation in 2Q 20e. However, we dont think this has changed its FY 20e capex plan, so we stick to our expectation of an around 50% dividend cut in FY 21e vs. FY 20 distribution.
