The future of broadband - Optimum Fiber has higher cNPS than Optimum C...
Optimum’s cNPS for their fiber product is higher than their Cable product but the gap has decreased in recent months. Fiber cNPS has decreased and Cable cNPS has increased slightly. As the size of Optimum’s Fiber customer base increases, the overall cNPS should inch higher. More importantly, Fiber scores are higher than Cable in every category. The company has a lot of work to do to improve scores in price / value and customer support, both of which remain very low for both technologies

Autumn for Broadband 3Q25 – FWA ascendant, Cable struggling
We share here, in our latest Autumn for Broadband report, a quick update on broadband industry trends based on reported company results so far. Industry net adds have improved substantially from a year ago but remain below last year’s when adjusted for ACP impact. Net adds for the quarter were higher than the pre-pandemic norm but trailing twelve-month net adds remain below pre-pandemic levels. We take a deep-dive into FWA’s continued strong momentum by carrier.

CHTR: Lowering broadband and EBITDA estimates post 3Q
In this note, we cover changes to our estimates and how we compare to guidance and consensus. We also look at Charter’s relative valuation in comparison to Comcast. Please see our separate notes reviewing results and thoughts following the earnings call. We have lowered 4Q broadband new adds and ARPU. We have also lowered our total revenue and EBITDA expectations.

Charter: Subscribers and EBITDA growth heading lower
There is a lot that’s common between Charter and Comcast, and yet there is a lot that’s different about the two companies. Both are operating in an environment where broadband subscriber growth remains a distant dream. Where the two companies differ is expectation around EBITDA growth. While both companies expect EBITDA to decline in 4Q25, Charter expects to grow EBITDA in 2026 unlike Comcast which expects EBITDA to decline in 2026. We also think Charter has higher pricing power than Comcast.

CHTR 3Q25 Quick Take: Subs and EBITDA miss
Charter’s broadband losses were higher than expected. 3Q is usually a seasonally stronger quarter yet subscriber losses showed little sign of improvement vs. 2Q. EBITDA also missed estimates. On the call, we are keen to hear what’s driving the higher subscriber losses. We expect the stock to trade down, but, like CMCSA yesterday, where it winds up for the day will depend on commentary around expected 4Q subscriber and EBITDA trends.

3Q25 Broadband Estimate Deep Dive
If you are one of those eager contrarians looking for the quarter where a combination of discount valuations and even a modest turnaround in cable KPI trends could boost the stocks, this probably ain’t it. The cable industry continues to lose subscribers at an elevated pace with Comcast doing worse than Charter thanks to the 1-2 punch of fiber and FWA.

BEAD: Update for 3 More States
In this latest update, we now include BEAD proposals from 51 states & territories. We have updated our analysis for Alaska, Florida and Utah. Comcast, Brightspeed and AT&T remain at the top of the list among wireline operators. Fiber remains the dominant technology both in terms of locations as well as funding.

Winners and Losers (in Capital Markets) in the Kimmel Saga
Now that Kimmel is back on the air, is the saga of his suspension over from a capital markets perspective? We think not. In this note, we outline what we think will be the effect as the media sector wrestles with technological, market, and policy changes, as well as who we think the winners and losers will be in the dynamics that emerge from the twists and turns of the last week.

BEAD: Impact of Price caps on funding
Based on a leaked internal NTIA memo related to BEAD, it seems like the final proposals by the states may not be final and the NTIA may force them to make changes to their plans. We have analyzed all the proposals so far and estimate that Comcast, AT&T and Frontier may be most impacted by these rules. However, the overall impact isn’t material.

Cable’s win share among movers
There has been an ongoing debate among investors whether low moves actually hurt the Cable companies. Until now, it wasn’t possible to answer this question due to lack of data. We now have data from Opensignal that helps us answer this question. In this report, we show that the large Cable operators have been winning more than 50% share among movers who are new to their footprint. The win share has declined over time, especially as competitive intensity has increased. Cable operators can reduce ...

BEAD: Another Major Update
We are almost in the home stretch of the BEAD proposal process. In this latest update, we now include BEAD proposals from 48 states & territories. We also incorporate the revisions in some state proposals. Comcast and Brightspeed are at the top of the list among wireline operators. Fiber’s share of locations remained unchanged from our last update. Satellite and FWA together account for close to a third of the locations awarded.

Charter Pre-3Q25 Model Update
We updated our model for recent management commentary at investor conferences. We lowered 3Q EBITDA slightly but kept full year estimate unchanged. We expect consensus EBITDA estimates for the quarter to come closer to our estimates. Our near-term price target is $479 (+79%).

BEAD: Update for 7 more proposals
In this latest update, we now include BEAD proposals from 39 states & territories. Comcast and AT&T remain at the top of the list among wireline operators. Fiber’s share of locations has stabilized with small share shifts in either direction with each update (fiber’s share increased slightly after this update). Satellite and FWA together account for close to a third of the locations awarded.

BEAD: Funding wins and investments by operator
In this note on BEAD, we summarize the funding wins so far for each operator along with the matching investment they are expected to make based on the cost estimates of each state. Based on the state estimates, they are contributing 63% of the estimated build costs and the operators are expected to invest 37% of the cost. The share of investments needed varies depending on the operator, and in some cases may be lower than estimated.
