- TLS commands very strong market share position in both Australian mobile and broadband market, with market share of over 30% in both segments.
- Solid FY26 guidance with expected y/y growth in underlying EBITDA.
- Strong market position in mobile which continues to see positive price growth – this is the largest contributor to revenue and earnings.
- Ongoing improvement in the balance sheet position (leverage) provides optionality (e.g. capital management initiatives).
- Attractive free cash flow profile which should be supportive of dividend policy and growth.
- Over the long-term, the introduction of 6G provides potential growth, however we continue to monitor the ROIC from the capex spend.

Key Risks
