IHS: Emerging Markets Execution Risks Will Limit Upside Despite Cash Resilience

The analyst price target for IHS Holding is now set at US$9 to US$12, reflecting a modest trim in our fair value estimate to US$6.00 from US$6.25 as analysts point to resilient cash generation, stronger profitability assumptions and the company's leadership position in its key emerging markets.

ATNI: Stable Guidance And Buybacks Will Support Future Upside Potential

Analysts have maintained ATN International's fair value estimate at US$39.00, making only minor tweaks to assumptions such as the discount rate and future P/E. These reflect small adjustments to their risk and earnings outlook rather than a change in the headline price target.

CMCSA: Warner Bids And New Sports Rights Will Reframe Earnings Power

Analysts nudged their fair value estimate for Comcast slightly lower to about $33.93 from $34.65. This reflects trimmed long term revenue growth and profit margin assumptions after the Versant spin, price target cuts from several firms to a range around $23 to $44, and concerns about broadband competition and media cost pressures, even as the assumed future P/E multiple edges modestly higher.

UNIT: Fiber Investment Shift Will Recast Earnings Mix Over Time

Analysts have trimmed their fair value estimate for Uniti Group from US$11.00 to about US$10.65 and lowered their price targets to US$6 to US$7, pointing to higher required returns, more cautious revenue growth assumptions, and uncertainty around the timing of a shift toward fiber driven earnings. Projected profit margins and future P/E multiples have been reset to reflect updated expectations.
