AMT 1Q25 Quick Take: Property in-line; services strong

The property segment was slightly better than Consensus on revenue and gross margin with currency helping. Within property, US and Canada was a touch disappointing, while International was strong (helped by less of a currency headwind than expected). Services revenue and gross margin beat expectations handily, similar to SBAC last night.

Indian Telcos & Towers What to expect in 2025: FWA S-curve enables mo...

FWA will likely be the key themes of 2025 in Indian Telcos we think, with the market likely to be delivering 5m+ quarterly net adds by the end of the year. This is likely to drive renewed optimism towards Bharti and enable Jio to IPO. Given Jio’s valuation of approaching $200bn if it happens this is likely to be one of the biggest events in Global Telecoms this year. On rolling forward our DCF our Indus pt rises to INR 325 and we lift our recommendation to Neutral, and stay Buyers of both Bharti...

Sometimes the markets behave in ways that appear irrational. VIL having sufficient market cap to launch an INR 200bn ($2.4bn) capital increase despite (in our view) being a failing business is one example. But what does it mean for Bharti, Jio and Indus?
