☆ Australia rejects Telstra, TPG's network-sharing deal; firms to appeal
  + stars: | 2022-12-21 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
Dec 21 (Reuters) - The Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC) on Wednesday rejected TPG Telecom's (TPG.AX) regional network-sharing agreement with Telstra Group (TLS.AX), and said the deal would significantly weaken overall competition in the country. TPG's shares tanked nearly 6% to a record low following the news, while Telstra slipped 0.1%. In February, the telecom giants signed a regional multi-operator core network agreement under which Telstra — the country's largest telecoms operator — would gain access to TPG's 4G and 5G spectrums. TPG and Telstra expressed disappointment with the competition regulator's decision, which the latter said it would appeal against, while rival telecoms firm Optus — owned by Singapore Telecommunications (STEL.SI) — welcomed it. ACCC noted the network-sharing arrangement is proposed at a time when all the three companies — TPG, Telstra and Optus — are competing in the roll-out of 5G infrastructure including in regional areas.

Third, long-duration stocks that are unprofitable — typically these are growth stocks found in the tech sector — should be avoided, Kostin said. Fourth, Kostin likes stocks that have growing profit margins despite the tightening economic conditions. He shared a list of stocks with the most resilient profit margins over the last few year, and which are expected to grow margins next year. And finally, Kostin recommended avoiding stocks whose profit margin growth in recent years may have been due to a decrease in expenses as opposed to an increase in sales. Rising or normalizing expenses for these companies could chip away at profit margins.

T-Mobile’s customer gains have led the wireless industry for most of the past two years. T-Mobile US Inc. said its cost and customer trends had improved heading into the end of 2022 after the company logged its strongest jump in core phone subscriptions since its merger with Sprint Corp. The cellphone carrier reported a net gain of 854,000 postpaid phone connections during the recent quarter, a postmerger record that outpaced both AT&T Inc. and Verizon Communications Inc. The tally topped the average estimate of 725,000 from analysts polled by FactSet.
☆ T-Mobile raises 2022 forecast for wireless subscriber additions again
  + stars: | 2022-10-27 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
Oct 27 (Reuters) - T-Mobile US Inc (TMUS.O) on Thursday raised its annual forecast for monthly bill-paying wireless subscriber additions for the third time this year, after beating estimates for quarterly additions as inflation-weary people lapped up its affordable plans. The telecoms giant has been offering discounts on smartphones and plans at industry-low prices to attract subscribers and stave off competition. T-Mobile added 854,000 monthly bill-paying phone subscribers in the third quarter, far higher than FactSet estimates of 724,800. In comparison, AT&T added 708,000 wireless subscribers in the third quarter, while Verizon, the largest U.S. carrier by subscribers, only added 8,000 customers in the same period due to its price hikes. T-Mobile expects to add between 6.2 million and 6.4 million net monthly-bill paying subscribers in 2022, up from a prior forecast of 6 million to 6.3 million.

It's long been a dream of satellite communications visionaries, but bulky, specialized and typically expensive satellite phones fell short of mass appeal. While SpaceX has launched more than 3,000 first generation satellites so far, adding a direct-to-phone service will require thousands more. Private venture Lynk Global likewise aims to provide a cell tower in space from satellites, with plans for a constellation of several thousand in a few years. And while some build out satellite networks, other major players are eyeing Earth-bound innovations, with systems dependent on a specialized antenna in phones. In partnership with Globalstar , the feature allows users to send compressed text messages from iPhone 14s via satellites.

Oct 21 (Reuters) - Verizon Communications Inc (VZ.N) posted a 23% slide in third-quarter profit and missed market estimates for wireless subscriber additions on Friday, as several customers opted for cheaper plans from rivals AT&T Inc (T.N) and T-Mobile US Inc (TMUS.O). Verizon lost 189,000 monthly bill-paying phone subscribers in its consumer business in the quarter after the U.S. carrier raised prices for its plans in June through additional charges, which was over and above its already pricier plans.

Telecom players are coming under increasing pressure to keep their plans affordable as rising cost of living crimps discretionary spending by customers.

NEW YORK, Sept 9 (Reuters Breakingviews) - T-Mobile US (TMUS.O) is sending a clear signal about the benefits of being bigger. The $182 billion company announced a $14 billion share buyback program on Thursday, reflecting the fact that both profit and subscriber numbers are rising. Fears that mobile prices would rise when T-Mobile acquired SoftBank’s Sprint have not materialized, allaying at least one of the potential objections to the merger.
