The 2Q25 earnings of VodafoneZiggo, Telenet and Virgin Media O2[de] continue to look soft. Interestingly, a network carve-out in the UK now seems off the table, while Liberty Global is working to unlock the intrinsic value of its separate businesses through divestitures, as they have done with Sunrise. Nevertheless, 2Q25 performance was underwhelming and our conviction to buy or sell the notes is low. Despite stable QoQ leverage, we see limited value in current spreads. Nevertheless, there is st...

The 1Q25 earnings reports of VodafoneZiggo, Telenet and Virgin Media O2[de] were soft. When compared to 4Q24, leverage deteriorated across the board in 1Q25, while all companies lost broadband customers. We were especially disappointed by the weaker outlook for VodafoneZiggo. Although all businesses have their intrinsic strengths, there are challenges, as described below, and our conviction to buy or sell the notes is low. We see limited value in current spreads. Nevertheless, there is still ups...

4Q24 Results: Sunrise, Telenet, VodafoneZiggo, Virgin Media O2/Earning...

The 4Q24 earnings reports of VodafoneZiggo, Telenet, Sunrise and Virgin Media O2[de] were soft. When compared to 4Q23, the 4Q24 adj. EBITDA performance was weak across the board. We currently prefer Sunrise, as it guides for adj. EBITDAaL growth and lower leverage. We also like VodafoneZiggo, as there is less uncertainty with respect to a potential network carve-out than at Virgin Media O2 and Telenet. Given similar credit profiles, we expect limited spread dispersion across the four companies.

Liberty Global operating companies/3Q24 Earnings: UPCB, TNETBB, ZIGGO ...

The 3Q24 earnings reports of the four high yield telecom companies that are (partially) owned by Liberty Global[a] were mixed. 3Q24 adj. EBITDA performance was strong at VodafoneZiggo and Telenet, slightly better at Sunrise, and weak at Virgin Media O2. We currently prefer Sunrise and Ziggo. Given similar credit profiles, we expect limited spread dispersion across the four companies. However, we expect that Liberty Global will look different one year from now, after (partial) network sales.

This is meant to be the quarter when the upcoming Sunrise spin should be attracting most attention and helping to crystallise value. However, we can't help but be distracted by a sharp deterioration in underlying service revenue trends as the impact of lapping lower inflation price rises and a sustained KPI loss is starting to catch up with Liberty Global.
