Description: LBTYK Liberty Global C November 08, 2025
Liberty Global PLC (NASDAQ:LBTYK) is a Bermuda-incorporated, multi-national communications group that delivers broadband internet, video, fixed-line telephony and mobile services to residential and business customers across Belgium, Ireland, Slovakia and other markets. Its consumer portfolio includes value-added broadband features (Wi-Fi, security, smart-home tools, online storage) and the Connect Box Wi-Fi gateway, while its video offering spans linear TV, on-demand, and the Horizon 5 cloud-based multi-screen platform together with the Horizon Go mobile app.
Beyond consumer services, the company supplies post-paid and prepaid mobile plans, circuit-switched telephony, and a suite of business solutions-voice, data, video, cloud and converged fixed-mobile services-to SMBs, enterprises and wholesale partners. The firm’s diversified revenue mix helps mitigate the cyclical impact of any single market segment.
Key recent metrics (FY 2023) include €13.2 bn of revenue, a 7.5 % EBITDA margin, and approximately 24 million total broadband and mobile subscribers, with an average revenue per user (ARPU) of €28.2 that is trending upward as customers adopt higher-value digital services. Growth is being driven by continued fiber-to-the-home rollouts, rising demand for bundled entertainment packages, and macro-economic tailwinds such as higher household spending on connectivity amid remote-work trends. Capital expenditures remain elevated (~€2.3 bn) to fund network upgrades and 5G expansion, while regulatory environments in the EU and UK impose pricing caps that compress margins.
