Downgrading Our Vodafone Moat Rating and Fair Value Estimate; Business Portfolio Is Too Broad

Javier Correonero Equity Analyst

Business Strategy and Outlook

| Javier Correonero |

Vodafone is a telecommunications conglomerate present in more than 20 geographies around the world. Its most important markets are Germany, Spain, Italy, and the United Kingdom. Vodafone has historically been a mobile player, but during the last decade it has carried out several deals to solidify its fixed-line presence. Vodafone is the owner of the cable network in Germany, thanks to the acquisitions of Kabel Deutschland (2013) and Liberty Global Germany (2019). These moves made Germany Vodafone’s largest market by revenue, a decision we support, given the historical price stability in this geography.
