Telkom Indonesia (TLKM IJ) - 2Q25 EBITDA Slightly Declines By 3% yoy
6M25 EBITDA reached Rp36t, somewhat in line with our expectations (47.0%) and consensus’ (47.3%), but 6M25 NPAT (Rp11t) was slightly below our estimate (45.6%) and consensus’ (45.8%). There are early signs of optimism on Indonesia’s macroenvironment given the government spending in June 25, but it may take several quarters to drive a full multiplier effect. TLKM trims its 2025 revenue growth (yoy) target to flat (vs low-single digit previously). Maintain HOLD. Target price: Rp2,900.

Sarana Menara Nusantara (Buy, IDR 780, +18%) Q2 25 Quick Take: YTD pe...
TOWR saw a slower revenue trend in Q2 across all segments, except for Tower which maintained growth at just under 3%. This was aided by the consolidation of IBST in 3Q24. Although YTD performance is still aligned with the full year’s guidance, there is risk of further slowdown as it laps the IBST consolidation next quarter if the pace of non-Towers growth remains unchanged.

Telkom Indonesia (TLKM IJ) - Gradual Simplification Of Product Portfol...
Telkomsel launched a new starter pack with higher headline pricing (40% above previous starter pack) in Mar 25. This is also part of its gradual effort to simplify its product portfolio (target: 200SKUs). Telkomsel views the current market consolidation as a positive sign going forward. We expect a dividend payout of 65% from 2026 NPAT, implying a DPS of Rp158 (5.6% yield). This partly reflects analysts’ session with TLKM’s new management. Maintain HOLD with a higher target price of Rp2,900.

Global EM Towers - A Consistent Approach to EFCF and Shareholder Remun...
Following a similar note we published on the EM Telco sector, we apply the same consistent approach to Equity FCF for Global EM Towers. We have preferred Telcos over Towers for some time, as the drivers of upside for the Telcos (consolidation and declining capital intensity) is a headwind for the Towers.

EM Towers Q1 CY25 review: Steady as she goes
Tower revenue trends were slower across the board except for India’s Indus Tower as it benefited from VIL’s network catch up spend. However, EBITDA margins are improving except in Indonesia which faces the near-term pressure of the XL-Smartfren consolidation.

Strategy - Alpha Picks: Good Performances In June
Our Jun 25 portfolio outperformed the JCI and LQ45 by +5.1%/+7.1% respectively, mainly driven by DKFT (+16% performance) and outperformances by other stocks such as ANTM, CMRY and AMRT. Several major events to watch out this month include upcoming IPOs (especially the sizeable Chandra Daya Investasi (CDIA) IPO worth about US$143m) and the outcome of the US-Indo reciprocal tariffs discussion on 9 July. Our new Alpha Picks are ANTM, BBCA, ERAA, ICBP, MYOR, MIKA, AMRT and TLKM.

TOWR reported on Friday evening. Tower revenue growth slowed and we expect this to continue over the near term as a result of consolidation. To some extent, this will be offset by growing contribution from FTTT and FTTH businesses as telcos expand into the home broadband and into rural Indonesia.

Telecommunications – 1Q25: EBITDA Stable At -0.8% qoq
In 1Q25, the combined EBITDA of Indonesia’s big telcos dropped 6% yoy, but was stable qoq. Combined 1Q25 NPAT was also slightly lower (2% yoy). Among the big three telcos, ISAT and Telkomsel (majority owned by TLKM) gained market share in 1Q25 (based on EBITDA) vs 4Q24. We are monitoring TLKM’s upcoming AGM (27 May) as we expect a potential dividend yield of around 7% (assuming an 80% payout). Maintain MARKET WEIGHT on the telecommunications sector with ISAT as our top pick.

Telecommunications – 4Q24: NPAT Down Slightly By 2% yoy
Big Telcos’ 4Q24 EBITDA was roughly stable (-0.2%) qoq, but declined slightly by 4% yoy Meanwhile, combined 4Q24 net profit fell slightly by 2% yoy, but rose 11% qoq. During 4Q24, EXCL slightly increased its market share (based on EBITDA) among the top three telcos. We downgrade the telecommunications sector to MARKET WEIGHT from OVERWEIGHT as we expect TLKM, the parent company of Telkomsel (market leader), to book only a slightly moderate top-line growth of 2% yoy in 2025. Our top pick is ISAT.

Telkom Indonesia (TLKM IJ) - 4Q24: NPAT Up 18% yoy
TLKM recorded 2024 EBITDA of Rp75t. This was in line with our and consensus full-year estimates. The strong yoy growth in 4Q24 NPAT was primarily supported by the digital investments’ appreciation (non-cash income) of Rp664b. Cellular (mobile) ARPU rose slightly by 2% qoq in 4Q24, but fell 7% yoy. The company guides lower capex to revenue (at 17-19%) in 2025 compared with its 2024 guidance (at 22-24%). Maintain HOLD with a higher target price of Rp2,700.
