Poste Italiane’s Tender Offer for Telecom Italia Now Looks Substantially Derisked

Telecom Italia is the incumbent telecom operator in the Italian market. Since the entrance of Iliad in the mobile market in 2018, the Italian mobile market has become irrational, with extreme discounts that do not allow operators to earn their cost of capital. Iliad and mobile virtual network operators own almost 30% of the mobile market, bringing constant pressure to larger operators like TIM and Vodafone. The Italian mobile market offers one of the lowest average revenue per user in Europe, with monthly prices of around EUR 10 and some MVNOs offering monthly plans for EUR 5 or less.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Telecom Italia is doing acceptably in the Italian consumer market, with low-single-digit service revenue declines despite the tough competitive environment.

Bears

The competitive environment in Italy is fierce in mobile and broadband. We expect TIM to continue to lose market share in both.
