Telia: Headwinds are too strong

Telia Company
Download report (PDF)

Telia's Q3 operating figures were good and Telia returned to earnings growth. However, macro headwinds are strong and overshadow the good business trend. So, we expect modest earnings growth in coming years. The share’s valuation (2023 P/E 18x and EV/EBIT 16x) has turned tight due to the price drop, lowered estimates and uncertainty. The stock exchange offers more attractive return/risk ratios elsewhere.

Telia Company operates in the telecom sector. The company delivers a range of services within voice, IP and capacity services, mainly through wholly owned international carrier networks. Customers are found among private players and corporate customers. The largest operations are found in the Nordic countries, the Baltics and Europe. The company was formed as a merger of Telia and Sonera. The head office is located in Solna.
