The outlook of modest single-digit dividend growth is underpinned by a return to stable low single-digit revenue growth, margin expansion, and falling BUY capex that results in FCF growth averaging c18% over the next three years, and dividend cover rebuilding from c1.0x this year to 1.5x by FY19. The Current price Price target 5.3% dividend yield stands out relative to the peer group, and is the highest cash dividend yield of the “big five” European incumbents. GBP 2.31 GBP 2.50 ● Europe drives group service revenue improvement: Group organic service 31/05/2016 London Close revenues continue to improve (Q4 growth of 1.8% yoy lfl, versus 1.4% in Market cap (GBP m) 60,057 Q3). Our detailed assessment of European mobile service revenue trends Reuters VOD.L shows a material improvement driven by improving ARPU trends rather Bloomberg VOD LN than improving subscriber trends. Blended ARPUs are improving in most EU business units, with declines in postpaid ARPUs being offset by the Changes made in this note ongoing significant mix shift from low-ARPU prepaid tariffs to higher- ARPU postpaid services. We see this mix shift as the single most significant Rating: Buy (no change) evidence that growing demand for mobile data is being monetised. We Price target: GBP 2.50 (no change) believe there remains considerable further potential for growth in Estimates changes smartphone, 4G and data plan adoption which should continue to 2017E 2018E 2019E underpin modest European service revenue growth in the medium term. old ∆ % old ∆ % old ∆ % Sales 41,309 5.1 42,349 4.6 43,254 4.2 ● Good reasons for margins to expand: An estimated £900m of EBITDA Ebitda 12,039 4.9 12,578 4.1 13,022 5.1 headwinds in FY17 should be more than offset by structural margin EPS 4.53 10.9 5.56 6.7 6.41 22.1 Source: Berenberg estimates benefits (faster-growing high-margin segments like AMAP and cable), operating leverage (as project Spring cost growth starts to slow) and Share data efficiency gains (on direct costs, customer costs, and IT and technology Shares outstanding (m) 26,692 costs). We expect group margins to expand by 210bp to 30.4% by FY19. Enterprise value (GBP m) 92,807 ● Higher capex is good capex: Following higher capex guidance from Daily trading volume 42,900,000 management we have raised our cumulative three-year capex by £2.4bn to £20.7bn for FY17-19, with an average three-year capex/sales of 15.6%. Absolute capex will still fall by c20% in FY17. Increased capex will be spent on 4G densification and fibre backhaul in Europe, 4G expansion in AMAP, fibre and DOCSIS 3.1 upgrades in European wireline, and IT transformation. Target areas should benefit both revenues and opex. Despite this higher capex scenario, our FCF estimates for FY17-19 are almost unchanged.
