Equity Bottom-Up

Five days after the surprise Brexit vote, much remains to be clarified in terms of future direction. If anything, the various political moves in the UK and the EU in recent days suggest we face a period of real uncertainty ahead. That said, as the fallout continues it is worth looking for investment opportunities.  We continue to review the market for dislocations in the telecoms sector as we believe a lot of the near-term movements have been predominantly driven by fund flow/ liquidity and…

Post Brexit Fallout Continues: Looking for Opportunities in European Telcos?

As <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/profiles/273" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="accounts:273">Morningstar</a> has noted, Brexit fears may be positive for <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/690" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:690">Telstra</a> in Australia. The unexpected Brexit vote has sent shockwaves through financial markets and it will take some time to settle down. There are many moving parts in Europe with a real potential for a rising cost of capital, FX disconnections, and possible macroeconomic fallout.Much is in the realm of the unknown, making near-term predictions difficult.

Thematic (Sector/Industry)

Fears of the impact of Britain's exit from the European Union have pushed down the prices of most European communication stocks. We think this is an overreaction as we view telecom as a sector somewhat immune to geopolitical changes. In our view, Brexit will have no effect on cross-border transfers of voice or data as mobile termination rates for voice have already been reduced to negligible levels and for data have been cut in half and will be down to local roaming rates by the end of 2017.Within the U.K., we think BT will likely be the most affected as the majority of its revenue is from the U.K. Its only non-U.K. revenue is from its global services division. However, we think what losses do accrue will be offset by stronger revenue from the global services division as revenue from other currencies is translated into a weaker pound.Analysts: Allan C. Nichols, CFA

Chances that CK Hutchison’s possible appeal of the European Commission’s decision to block its UK merger with Telefonica’s O2 will succeed are scant, UK lawyers told CTFN.  An appeal will take at least a year to be decided upon, so it would almost certainly not save the deal even if Hutchison were to win.

Hutchison Stands Slim Chance of Winning EC Appeal

On May 11, Margrethe Vestager, the EU competition commissioner, rejected CK Hutchison's 3 UK's proposedacquisition of Telefonica's U.K. division O2 UK.We had thought the odds of approval were about 50%, so we aren't surprised by the rejection.We think this makes approval of CK Hutchison's 3 Italia's proposed merger in Italy with VimpelCom's Wind division highly unlikely.Competition is much lower in Italy, as evidenced by fewer mobile virtual network operators and much higher EBITDA margins.Analysts: Dan Baker &amp; Lorraine Tan
