Shenandoah Can't Survive On Its Own; Upside From Fiber Race
Summary I previously rated Shenandoah Telecommunications a hold due to weak earnings, low return on invested capital, and a DCF price target of $1. An updated DCF analysis with 15% revenue growth and 5% expense growth yields a price target of $3.60, indicating a 73% downside from today's pricing. The current share price requires over 30% revenue growth, while the quant rating remains strong sell, warning investors about the stock. Valuation on the sale of assets suggests a fair value range of $1,272 million to $1,387 million, translating to a price target of $23.3 to $25.4.
