Bankinter analyst team’s view:

Ther results are in line with estimates and confirm the company’s medium-term guidance (2025). We see a neutral impact on the share price.

We maintain our Buy stance. Target Price 52,93 euros/share. Cellnex offers solid fundamentals: i) European leader in telecommunications towers; ii) strong visibility in cash flows, with growth close to 20% 2021-2025e and attractive future yield (>7% yearly); iii) strong investment capacity (c. 10 billion euros); and iv) solid financial position, with average maturity >6 years and mainly at fixed cost. Whatsmore, it offers protection against inflation, with a large part of its contracts linked to CPI.
