DISH Network: Weak Earnings Outlook But A Near-Term Bullish Play

The Communication Services sector has underperformed the S&P 500 over the last year. Telecom stocks continue to be out of favor, but one company that beat EPS estimates last week sets up for a short-term rebound. Its longer-term valuation looks like a value trap, however. The ugly stepchild of the “Tech, Media, and Telecom” (TMT) supersector is undoubtedly Communication Services ((CS)). According to Goldman Sachs Investment Research, the sector has experienced the largest EPS cuts this reporting season among all 11 market groupings. Moreover, price-action has been downright dreadful in CS for the last year. The below graphic from Goldman illustrates relative sector performances. While growth sectors like Consumer Discretionary and Information Technology have bounced back sharply over the last few months, CS just keeps lagging. S&P 500 Sector Relative Performances: Communication Services Keeps Lagging Goldman Sachs Investment Research DISH Network (DISH) is one CS company that is down huge over the last year. Shares fell from the mid-$40s in August 2021 to a low just above $16 when the S&P 500 bottomed out in June. Is there value in this household name? Let’s dig in. According to Bank of America Global Research, DISH Network provides television service in the US to 12 million customers. The company also holds valuable wireless spectrum assets including 600MHz, 700MHz, AWS, and mmWave. DISH bought part of Sprint's prepaid wireless business and plans to build out its wireless network. Analysts at BofA expect earnings to decline in the years ahead – as does the Bloomberg consensus forecast. While the stock trades at an exceptionally low trailing 12-month P/E ratio near 6, per The Wall Street Journal, the $10.2 billion market cap company based in Colorado does not pay a dividend and is arguably pricey given such a weak fundamental outlook. Its EV/EBITDA multiple is a bit high on an absolute basis and the firm’s free cash flow yield is set to drop. On the bright side, DISH crushed earnings estimates last week. DISH: Earnings, Valuation, Free Cash Flow Forecasts BofA Global Research After reporting $0.82 vs. the $0.65 consensus expectation, DISH’s corporate event calendar is light until the next quarterly earnings report date of November 3, BMO, according to Wall Street Horizon. Corporate Event Calendar Light Through Q3 Wall Street Horizon The Technical Take While the fundamental backdrop is quite soft for DISH and its valuation looks like more of a value trap than a bargain, the technical story actually looks somewhat favorable right now. Shares have rallied to their highest level since mid-June, climbing above resistance in the low $19s. The stock is up four straight sessions as of this writing. There’s still work to be done though. DISH remains precariously close to the noted support price, so a drop back below it would be worrisome.

DISH Network: Tightening Cash Flows, Looming Uncertainties

The CDMA shut-off acceleration resulted in subscribers flocking away and the company incurring unexpected costs. The delay in approval has reduced DISH's competitiveness. In addition, the aggressive 5G network build has put pressure on cash flows, not to mention maturing debts. As a result, tightening cash flows would limit DISH from actively participating in the upcoming 2.5 GHz auction, in our view. The share is trading below its 3-year -2STD. But DISH's forward EV/EBITDA is higher than its peers, indicating a high degree of risk.

How DISH's 5G Network Provides A Competitive Advantage

DISH entered the wireless business as the fourth carrier, planning to acquire MVNOs and move the customers to its network. We believe that DISH's standalone, cloud-native 5G network could benefit from the so-called network slicing, which can entice enterprise consumers. However, while still competing in the retail wireless market, other big players are also keeping an eye on the enterprise market with significant revenue potential. Moreover, we should look at DISH's liquidity, as Capex for network build will increase and debt obligations will be due. As it stands, we assign a "Hold" rating. However, signs of DISH's completing its coverage goals might justify a more bullish view.
