Vodafone: Rotation 2 Months Ago, 'HOLD' In 2026

Summary Vodafone is rated 'HOLD' due to valuation concerns and limited upside, with a price target of £0.95/share ($11.45 ADR). Recent share price appreciation and a P/E near 15x have eroded the risk/reward profile, making VOD unattractive versus risk-free rates. Growth projections, especially from the Three UK merger and European operations, are viewed as overly optimistic and unlikely to materialize as forecast. VOD's yield has dropped below 3.4%, and medium-term risks include overreliance on Germany and macroeconomic pressures limiting earnings growth. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Vodafone Q3 2025 Earnings Review: Strong Long-Term Play

Summary Vodafone released Q3 2025 earnings pre-market on Tuesday, February 4th with 5.2% service revenue growth and 2.2% EBITDAaL growth. Internal and external factors suggest the Germany market is at or near the bottom for Vodafone and industry trends will support growth in the next fiscal year. The dividend is safer than it appears given strong cash flow and the ability to pull back on deleveraging. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Vodafone Group Q2: Further Pain Ahead, Potentially Moderating Next Year

Summary Vodafone Group Public Limited Company's Q2 '25 results showed a mixed performance, with significant declines in Germany and strong growth in Turkey, but the overall market reaction was negative. Germany's revenue decline is concerning, with management expecting a slow U-shaped recovery and further declines in the next quarter due to MDU transition. Despite strong growth in Turkey, the performance is expected to moderate, and Vodafone's lack of focus on Cloud and AI may hinder long-term revenue potential. Given the weaknesses and uncertainties, I am initiating coverage of VOD with a hold rating, awaiting further clarity on Germany's recovery and overall growth prospects.

Vodafone: Potentially Undervalued, But Uncertainties Prevail Following Latest Updates

Summary Vodafone has been underperforming for over a decade, and is down 20% since May 2023, when CEO Margherita Della Valle announced a turnaround plan. The company has made good progress against its strategic objectives, improving customer satisfaction, driving productivity, and accelerating growth in most businesses in FY24. The group just completed the sale of Vodafone Spain and expects the sale of Vodafone Italy to close by early 2025, committing to use cash proceeds for deleveraging & buybacks. However, growth in Vodafone’s #1 market, Germany, is sluggish amidst legal changes, while the merger with Three UK may require costly remedies to get through. While VOD is potentially undervalued with a forward-looking dividend yield of 5%, growth prospects remain too uncertain for me to open a position. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Vodafone Group: Uncertainty Surrounding Germany And U.K. Performance Remains

Vodafone Q3 Update: All Signs Pointing Up
