No-moat Vodafone's shares are down 4% at the time of the writing as the company missed its full-year targets, with adjusted EBITDAaL coming in at EUR 14.7 billion compared with guidance of EUR 15.0 billion to 15.5 billion. We maintain our GBX 125 fair value estimate as our fiscal 2023 forecast was already below the EUR 15.0 billion target and our model also assumes almost EUR 500 million annual expenses that management considers nonrecurring.
Vodafone operates mobile and fixed-line networks and businesses in more than 20 countries. Its largest market is Germany, where it is the second mobile operator after Deutsche Telekom and owns a cable network after acquiring Kabel Deutschland in 2013 and Liberty Global Germany in 2019. In the U.K. and Italy, it acts as a mobile operator, while in Spain, it offers converged services after the acquisition of cable operator Ono in 2014. Vodafone also has operations in several Central European and African countries, which combined represent around one third of revenue.

VOD’s stock style is Large Value.
Style is an investment factor that has a meaningful impact on investment risk and returns.
Style is calculated by combining value and growth scores, which are first individually calculated.
High-growth stocks tend to represent the technology, healthcare, and communications sectors. They rarely distribute dividends to shareholders, opting for reinvestment in their businesses. More value-oriented stocks tend to represent financial services, utilities, and energy stocks. These are established companies that reliably pay dividends.
