Telia: A steady breeze in the sails
Despite inflationary headwinds, Telia's operational performance in Q2 continued to be good across a broad front, adding to confidence in the effectiveness of the strategy and the continued turnaround. We forecast moderate earnings growth over the next few years with a broader growth base. Additionally, strong balance sheet offers strategic room for maneuver. The main risk is related to the implementation of the strategy and, in particular, the realization of cost savings. With the decrease in the share price, the expected return on the stock, consisting of earnings growth (3%) and dividend (6%), exceeds the required return and supports a positive view.
