StarHub Likely Facing Increased Competition in Singapore -- Market Talk

Dow Jones

Oct 23, 2024

0247 GMT - StarHub is likely facing increased competition in Singapore, Morningstar's Dan Baker says, citing Simba, a new entrant in the local mobile market. The tough competitive outlook for StarHub's mobile, broadband and entertainment divisions will likely make it hard for the telecom company to earn above-cost-of-capital returns over the next decade, the senior equity analyst says in a note. StarHub's mobile revenue fell 4.1% in 2Q after dropping 4.6% in 1Q, he notes. Baker speculates that at least part of the mobile revenue pressure stems from the market share lost to Simba. Morningstar downgrades its moat rating for StarHub to no-moat from narrow, keeps the fair-value estimate of S$1.26 and sees the stock as fairly valued now. Shares are unchanged at S$1.22.
