Kyivstar upgraded their guidance for FY25 ahead of earnings in March and also announced a secondary offering. This dilutes VEON's stake in Kyivstar to ~84% from ~90%, but has a negligible effect on our sum of the parts valuation. We think VEON and Kyivstar are likely to re-rate due to their digital exposure with VEON being one of our GEM Top Picks.

EM Tower Trends Q3 CY25 review: Solid quarter, especially in Africa

Tower revenue trends were slightly slower across the board except for Indus Towers as it benefited again from VIL’s network catch up spend. EBITDA margins were roughly stable across EM except in Indonesia which faces the near-term pressure of the XL-Smartfren consolidation. Africa continue to perform well and the LatAm Towers space had a decent Q3.

We hosted VEON management including the CFO and Head of Strategic Development in Hong Kong and Singapore last week. Operationally the message from the company continues to be strong. VEON operates in high risk countries, but has a quality, and technical capability that far exceeds similar sized EM Telcos in our view. We still see substantial upside in the stock and retain our Buy recommendation and US$100/ADR price target.
