Company Report

Televisa Has Made Progress, but the Mexican Broadband Market Remains Challenged

Not much is going well for Televisa, and the road ahead looks difficult. The firm is primarily a Mexican broadband provider operating in a highly competitive market that would benefit greatly from consolidation. The firm also holds a minority interest in TelevisaUnivision, the largest Spanish-language media company globally, but a small player versus streaming giants like Netflix. We expect Televisa to eke out growth in the coming years while keeping a tight grasp of operating costs and capital investment. Still, it doesn’t entirely control the path forward, which will likely cause continued volatility in financial performance and the stock price.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Televisa’s cable business should continue to grow despite competitive pressure and remains well positioned to capitalize as broadband penetration in Mexico increases.

Bears

The Mexican broadband industry is more competitive than virtually any other market globally. Pricing is too low to generate attractive profitability, and too many players are chasing too few customers.
