A launch in Portugal has been pushed back to H2 (same timing as for Belgium) and no further details were given on the launch particulars. We remain unconvinced that Digi can build NPV positive businesses in either market, but we think it will launch in both, with all the associated costs– indeed, Digi upped capex guidance for 2024 to €650m-€700m from €650m. This drag to...

It remains to be seen how it will actually achieve that.
