Morningstar | China Unicom Loses Its Narrow Moat; Fair Value Estimate ...
We have moved China Unicom to no-moat and stable trend ratings from narrow moat and negative trend ratings previously. The main reason for the move to no-moat is persistent returns below its cost of capital. The negative trend was previously based on the loss of a technology advantage as the industry moved from 3G to 4G technology. This has now largely played out as most traffic is now on the 4G network, so we move to stable trend. The change in moat rating and slight decrease in the value of th...

Earnings turnaround on track China Unicom (“CU”) reported a solid set of 1H18 headlines, with healthy growth in 4G, industrial internet and ICT, suggesting that its mixed-ownership reform is paying off. As of Jun-2018, CU’s net gearing had dropped to a trivial 2.9%, which together with strong earnings recovery would make CU a stronger play in the 5G era, in our view. We trimmed our FY18E/19E service revenue estimates by 0.9%/1.9% and FY18E/19E earnings forecasts by 7.9%/12.1% respectively a...
