Отчётный звонок Charter Communications, Inc.
Вывод Buzzberg
Company targets lower leverage post-Cox, aiming for 3.5x-3.75x within three years.
Charter reported Q4 2025 with video subscriber growth but continued internet losses. Management guided to slight EBITDA growth in 2026 and $11.4B capex, with a sharp decline in capex after 2026. Key cross-company signals include a new business MVNO with T-Mobile, a renegotiated MVNO with Verizon, and partnerships with Apple and Amazon for next-gen services. The company is leveraging its converged network and savings guarantees to compete against fiber overbuilders and wireless carriers. Video subscribers grew 44k (vs -123k a year ago), helped by new packaging and the YouTube TV/Disney dispute.

- Internet subscriber losses improved but still negative at -119k in Q4; management does not project broadband growth in 2026.
- Mobile lines added 428k, down versus prior year due to heavy device subsidies from competitors; offload reached ~90%.
- 2026 capex guided to $11.4B, with a trajectory to below $8B by 2028, implying significant free cash flow growth.
