Rating outlook The stable rating outlook reflects our view that Deutsche Telekom's rating is well positioned in the Baa1 rating category because we expect gradual deleveraging towards management’s comfort zone leverage of 2.25x-2.75x by 2024 (equivalent to Moody’s-adjusted leverage below 3x), combined with improving underlying operating performance at the group level. Factors that could lead to an upgrade We would consider upgrading Deutsche Telekom's rating to A3 if the group strengthens its credit metrics on a sustained basis, such that: » its retained cash flow/adjusted net debt exceeds 25% and adjusted total net debt/EBITDA remains below 2.5x, both on a sustained basis, with an improvement in the business profile and operating conditions Factors that could lead to a downgrade A rating downgrade could result if the company were to experience a deterioration in its operating performance, or embark on an aggressive expansion or acquisition programme, leading to higher financial, business and execution risks, such that its: » adjusted net debt/EBITDA were to exceed 3.0x, with no expectation of an improvement over a 24-month period » adjusted retained cash flow/net debt were to decline to 18% or less on a sustained basis The rating could also be downgraded if there is: » a reduction in the government's equity stake to less than 20%, because then we may no longer apply the Government-Related Issuers rating methodology to Deutsche Telekom.

Source: Moody's Investors Service Profile Deutsche Telekom AG (Deutsche Telekom), domiciled in Bonn, Germany, is a leading provider of wireline and wireless services in the country. The key countries for the group are Germany (22.8% of net revenue in 2020) and the US (60.6%), where it operates in the mobile segment through T-Mobile USA. Deutsche Telekom also retains strong market positions in both the fixed and mobile segments in Greece, through OTE, and in a number of Central and Eastern European countries. In 2020, the company generated €101 billion in revenue and €40.4 billion in EBITDA (adjusted for special factors). Deutsche Telekom is 31.9% owned by the German government (14.5% directly and 17.4% through Germany's state-owned development bank Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau [KFW, Aaa stable]).

Source: Company 3 21 June 2021 Deutsche Telekom AG: Update following outlook change to stable MOODY'S INVESTORS SERVICE CORPORATES Recent developments On 15 June 2021, we changed Deutsche Telekom's outlook to stable from negative. The change in outlook to stable from negative reflects our expectation of progressive improvement in DT’s operating performance in its core markets of Germany and the US, combined with management’s commitment to progressively reduce leverage to around 3.0x by 2024 from 3.8x in 2021. The stable outlook factors in the solid operating performance, our expectation of improved cash flow generation and significant value creation of T-Mobile USA, which DT consolidates and controls with a 43% equity stake, but with an option to increase it to above 50%. We factor into the assessment of DT its exposure to a Ba2-rated asset in the US, despite the publicly stated limited recourse and self-funding strategy of TMUS. Detailed credit considerations T-Mobile USA's performance and synergy execution ahead of expectations but leverage will remain high over the next two years The merger between T-Mobile USA and Sprint closed on 1 April 2020. Following the completion of the transaction, Deutsche Telekom holds around 43% of the shares in T-Mobile USA. However, under a proxy agreement reached with SoftBank Group Corp. (Softbank, Ba3 stable), Deutsche Telekom controls majority of voting rights in the new T-Mobile USA. In June 2020, Softbank sold 198 million shares in the company in the open market and gave Deutsche Telekom the option to purchase another 101 million shares (around 8% of the company's share capital) until June 2024. While DT’s leverage, on a Moody’s-adjusted net debt/EBITDA basis, is expected to reach 3.8x this year, exceeding the 3.0x threshold for the Baa1 rating category, the rating affirmation with a stable outlook factors in our expectation that the company will continue to progressively reduce leverage towards 3.0x by 2024, in line with management’s comfort zone. Exhibit 4 We expect Deutsche Telekom's net leverage to stay at around 3.8x-3.6x in 2021-22 Evolution of Deutsche Telekom's adjusted Net Debt / EBITDA Downward pressure Upward pressure Net debt/EBITDA 4.0x 3.5x 3.0x 2.5x 2.0x 1.5x 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021e 2022e Source: Moody’s Financial Metrics™ and Moody's Investors Service estimates We also acknowledge the sound strategic logic behind the merger and the expected synergy benefits, as well as the associated execution risks and the increasing exposure to a Ba2-rated asset.

  • Why Youtube Buffers: the Secret Deals That Make—And Break—Online Video When Isps and Video Providers Fight Over Money, Internet Users Suffer
    Why YouTube buffers: The secret deals that make—and break—online video When ISPs and video providers fight over money, Internet users suffer. Lee Hutchinson has a problem. My fellow Ars writer is a man who loves to watch YouTube videos— mostly space rocket launches and gun demonstrations, I assume—but he never knows when his home Internet service will let him do so. "For at least the past year, I've suffered from ridiculously awful YouTube speeds," Hutchinson tells me. "Ads load quickly—there's never anything wrong with the ads!—but during peak times, HD videos have been almost universally unwatchable. I've found myself having to reduce the quality down to 480p and sometimes even down to 240p to watch things without buffering. More recently, videos would start to play and buffer without issue, then simply stop buffering at some point between a third and two-thirds in. When the playhead hit the end of the buffer—which might be at 1:30 of a six-minute video—the video would hang for several seconds, then simply end. The video's total time would change from six minutes to 1:30 minutes and I'd be presented with the standard 'related videos' view that you see when a video is over." Hutchinson, a Houston resident who pays Comcast for 16Mbps business-class cable, is far from alone. As one Ars reader recently complained, "YouTube is almost unusable on my [Verizon] FiOS connection during peak hours." Another reader responded, "To be fair, it's unusable with almost any ISP." Hutchinson's YouTube playback has actually gotten better in recent weeks.

    Comment Operators at crossroads: Market protection or innovation? Arnd Webera*, Daniel Scukab Published in: Telecommunications Policy, Volume 40, Issue 4, April 2016, Pages 368–377, doi:10.1016/j.telpol.2015.11.009. Permission to publish an authors’ version has kindly been granted by Elsevier B.V. a KIT (ITAS), Kaiserstraße 12, 76131 Karlsruhe, Germany b Mobikyo K.K., Level 32, Shinjuku Nomura Building, 1‐26‐2 Nishi‐Shinjuku, Shinjuku‐ku, Tokyo 163‐0532, Japan Abstract Many today believe that the mobile Internet was invented by Apple in the USA with their iPhone, enabling a data‐driven Internet ecosystem to disrupt the staid voice and SMS busi‐ ness models of the telecom carriers. History, however, shows that the mobile Internet was first successfully commercialised in Japan, in 1999. Some authors such as Richard Feasey in Telecommunications Policy (Issue 6, 2015) argue that operators had been confused and un‐ prepared when the Internet emerged and introduced “walled gardens”, without Internet access. This comment article reviews in detail how the operators reacted when the fixed, and later the mobile Internet spread; some introduced walled gardens, some opened it for the “unofficial” content on the Internet. The article concludes that most large European tel‐ ecom and information technology companies and their investors have a tradition of risk avoidance and pursued high‐price strategies that led them to regularly fail against better and cheaper foreign products and services, not only when the wireless Internet was introduced, but also when PCs and the fixed Internet were introduced. Consequences, such as the need to enable future disruptions and boost the skills needed to master them, are presented.

  • Stellungnahme Der Deutsche Telekom AG Zum Entwurf Einer Neuen Förderrichtlinie „Mobilfunkförderung“ Des Bundes Vom 22.07.2020
    Stellungnahme der Deutsche Telekom AG zum Entwurf einer neuen Förderrichtlinie „Mobilfunkförderung“ des Bundes vom 22.07.2020 Der Mobilfunkausbau in Deutschland wird von den privatwirtschaftlichen Ausbauplänen der Mobilfunkbetreiber getragen. Die Telekom ist einer der wesentlichen Akteure dieses Ausbaus. Die Telekom investiert jedes Jahr über EUR 5 Mrd. in den Netzausbau in Deutsch- land – deutlich mehr als alle Wettbewerber. Dazu gehört der Bau von tausenden neuer Mobilfunkstandorte pro Jahr und Upgrades bestehender Masten. Zur Verbesserung der Netzabdeckung auch gerade in weißen Flecken kooperiert die Telekom auch mit den ande- ren beiden Mobilfunknetzbetreibern Vodafone und Telefónica. Hinzu kommt der bundes- weite Ausbau von Glasfasernetzen im Festnetz. Dieser privatwirtschaftliche Netzausbau ist im Kern wettbewerblich getrieben. Die Tele- kom betreibt bereits heute ein hochleistungsfähiges Mobilfunknetz, mit ausgezeichneter Übertragungsqualität und einer Netzabdeckung der Bevölkerung mit LTE von bundesweit über 98 %. Die ambitionierte Ausbaupläne der Telekom verfolgen unter der Maßgabe „5G bis 2025“ das Ziel, diese Spitzenposition im deutschen Mobilfunkmarkt zu halten und 99% der Haushalte und 90% der Fläche mit 5G zu versorgen und so sowohl die Coverage unseres Netzes zu erhöhen als auch den stetig steigenden Erwartungen unserer Kunden an mobile Datenmengen und Übertragungsqualitäten zu genügen.1 Zusätzlich zu diesen wettbewerblichen Anreizen hat sich die Telekom, wie die anderen Mo- bilfunknetzbetreiber, zu hohen Versorgungsauflagen verpflichtet, die der Frequenzauktion 2019 zugrunde lagen. Im Mobilfunkgipfel 2018 haben sich die Mobilfunknetzbetreiber zu- dem zu einem Netzausbau verpflichtet, der sogar noch über diese Auflagen hinausgeht: Die TDG wird zusammen mit Vodafone und Telefónica bis Ende 2020 99% der Haushalte bun- desweit und bis Ende 2021 99% der Haushalte in jedem Bundesland erschließen.

  • Speech Karl-Gerhard Eick
    Not to be released until: February 27, 2009, 10:00 a.m. / Start statement René Obermann – Check against delivery – Statement delivered at the press conference on Deutsche Telekom’s FY results 2008 February 27, 2009 in Bonn Dr. Karl-Gerhard Eick Member of the Board of Management Finance Deputy CEO Deutsche Telekom AG Thank you, René! I am very pleased with our full-year financial results. We achieved a turn- around in adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, and adjusted net income. Ad- justed EBITDA grew by 0.7 percent to almost EUR 19.5 billion, driven by Mobile and an improved trend in domestic Broadband/Fixed Network, which came in slightly better than the original guidance range. Free cash flow im- proved to EUR 7 billion, supported by working capital, lower restructuring payments, and lower net interest payments, more than offsetting higher in- come tax payments and higher cash capex. Adjusted net income improved by 14 percent to EUR 3.4 billion due, in particular, to lower D&A. Net debt increased only modestly by EUR 0.9 billion to EUR 38.2 billion, despite EUR 4.4 billion spent on acquisitions (net of divestments), namely SunCom and OTE, and despite cash capex of EUR 8.7 billion.
