TPG Telecom Leaves UBS More Watchful on Mobile Operators -- Market Talk

Dow Jones06-03 11:46

0346 GMT - TPG Telecom's trading update leaves UBS analysts feeling a little more wary about the outlook for Australia's mobile operators. They point out in a note to clients that growth is largely coming from more value-focused offerings such as digital-only brands, as well as enterprise. With spectrum renewal costs looming, analysts Lucy Huang and Ailsa Lei wonder how successful operators will be at passing on costs to customers through price increases. The pair say that TPG is trading at an 18% discount to larger rival Telstra, but reckon that is justified by factors including its more price-sensitive customer base. UBS lifts its target price by 0.5% to A$3.97 and stays neutral on the stock, which is up 0.4% at A$3.715. (stuart.condie@wsj.com)
