Description: TEF Telefonica October 14, 2025
Telefónica S.A. (NYSE: TEF) operates a diversified telecommunications portfolio across Europe and Latin America, delivering mobile voice, data, and value-added services; traditional fixed-line offerings such as PSTN, ISDN, and broadband; wholesale interconnection and fiber-leasing solutions; and an expanding suite of digital products-including AI-driven Aura, smart-home devices, cloud, security, advertising, and big-data services. The firm also provides end-to-end video/TV platforms, fintech/payment tools, and a digital sales engine (Phoenix) that supports both retail and wholesale channels.
Key recent metrics that shape Telefónica’s outlook: (1) 2023 EBITDA of €9.4 billion, reflecting a 4 % YoY increase driven by higher mobile data ARPU in Brazil and Spain; (2) Capex of €4.2 billion, with ~€1.8 billion earmarked for 5G rollout and fiber-to-the-home expansion, underscoring the company’s focus on network modernization; (3) Subscriber base of roughly 340 million lines, of which 45 % are post-paid mobile contracts, a segment that historically yields lower churn and higher margin. Macro-level drivers include robust GDP growth in Latin America (≈3 % in 2023) supporting data demand, and European regulatory pressure on roaming fees and net-neutrality that compresses wholesale margins but incentivizes value-added services.
