For 4Q24, the sector’s 18% yoy earnings growth was within expectations, driven by Singtel’s regional associates, strong performance from the enterprise businesses and better overall cost discipline. We expect decent earnings growth for 1Q25, backed by strong earnings visibility, cost-saving initiatives and robust Enterprise business outlook. We like Singtel for its regional exposure and value-unlocking initiatives, Starhub’s attractive yield and NetLink’s defensive earnings. Maintain OVERWEIGHT.

For 9MFY25, Singtel reported a higher underlying net profit of S$1,870m (+11% yoy), driven by higher contributions from Optus and NCS, good cost discipline from the group’s cost-out programme and higher associate earnings (mainly from Airtel and AIS). The results are in line with expectations at 73% of our full-year forecasts. Singtel expects to pay 16.5 cents DPS for FY25 as the group has identified S$6b of capital recycling for sustainable shareholder returns. In view of a decent dividend yiel...

Singtel delivered a good set of numbers with underlying revenue growing and EBIT expanding on continued cost optimisation despite ongoing growth investments at Digital Infraco which led to steady growth in underlying net profits.

Strategy - 2025 Budget: A Broad-Based Budget For All
While sounding a word of caution for medium-term government revenues, Prime Minister Wong delivered a budget that continued to defray the pain of inflation with an eye toward clean energy, climate change and helping lower-income households. No new equities market proposals were announced, which may disappoint investors in the short term. Our top picks are BAL, CD, KEP, OCBC, STE, STM, SCI, ST, VMS and YZJSGD.

Rakuten Group - Earnings Flash - FY 2024 Results - Lucror Analytics
Rakuten's Q4 and FY 2024 results were solid, with robust revenue growth and strong earnings improvement. The company reached self-funding status at both the group and Mobile levels. Rakuten achieved all of its FY 2024 targets, especially those for the Mobile segment. The company has addressed all of its 2025 debt maturities, and its access to capital remains solid. We are confident that Rakuten will be able to achieve its FY 2025 targets, which appear to be conservative.
- Chris Hoare
Rakuten (Reduce, ¥400, -60%) Q4 24 Quick Take: Capex guidance lifted ...
Results were mixed again as revenue was in-line with expectations, underlying IFRS EBIT better than Q3, but the Group recorded a net loss. Sequential increase in MNO revenue showed no significant improvement and importantly the company has increased capex guidance for 2025 from “below ¥100bn” to ¥150bn. Cash flow breakeven on mobile remains longer dated than expected in our view and with MNO traction not improving as fast as hoped, we maintain our Reduce recommendation with a ¥400 price target.
