Chris1's Fair Value

Over the next five years (FY 2025–2029), Deutsche Telekom will leverage its transatlantic scale, AI-driven automation and continued 5G/fibre roll-out to deliver mid-single-digit top-line growth, expanding margins, double-digit EPS gains—and trade at a stable mid-teens P/E.

Revenue CAGR ≈ 3.4 %

At its October 2024 Capital Markets Day, management guided to net-revenue growth of ~4 % p.a. through 2027; consensus extends this to 2029, implying a rise from €115.8 b to €136.5 b—≈ 3.4 % CAGR  .

EBITDA-AL margin +0.8 pp p.a.

With adjusted EBITDA-AL set to grow 4–6 % annually, scale-and-AI efficiencies should lift margins from ~37.6 % in 2025 to ~40.5 % by 2029—an average expansion of ~0.8 pp per year  .

EPS +11 % p.a.

Analysts forecast adjusted EPS climbing from ~$1.95 (FY 2025) to ~$2.74 in 2027—an 11 % CAGR—and likely above €3.00 by 2029, underpinning rising dividends (from ~€1.00 to ~€1.50) and buy-backs  .

P/E ≈ 16× in 2029

Today’s forward P/E is ~15.97×. Given stable risk and consensus earnings growth, the multiple should remain in the mid-teens—around 16× FY 2029 EPS  .

Overall, Deutsche Telekom’s fibre/5G investments, AI cost-savings (€700 m by 2027) and T-Mobile US scale support a resilient earnings ramp—offering balanced upside at current valuations.
