Q2 2026 Earnings Call Summary

Q2 2026
Earnings Call Date:Jul 23, 2026|
% Change Since:
|
Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive
The call presented a predominantly positive operational turnaround: strong margin expansion, meaningful OpEx and headcount reductions, disciplined CapEx, robust free cash flow and clear progress on the FTTH upgrade, alongside record streaming and Mexico World Cup-driven revenue at TelevisaUnivision. Key near-term challenges include Sky subscriber declines and Sky revenue contraction, U.S. advertising softness (advertising down 9% consolidated; U.S. ads down 29%), elevated TelevisaUnivision leverage (5.5x), and short-term softness in broadband gross adds due to pricing, competition and weather. On balance, the strategic and financial improvements outweigh the remaining execution and market headwinds.
Company Guidance
The call’s guidance emphasized completing the FTTH rollout and preserving cash generation and margin momentum: management reiterated a full fiber-to-the-home network by end‑Q2 2027 (upgrade of ~8 million homes over the next 12 months; ended Q2‑2026 with ~60% of 20 million homes passed and ~12 million FTTH passed after upgrading ~1.5M homes in the quarter), sustaining recent top‑line recovery (residential + enterprise revenue MXN23.7bn in H1‑2026, +2.6% y/y; residential Q2 revenue MXN10.7bn, +1.8% y/y) and very low churn (monthly churn <2% for five consecutive quarters, lowest in 10 quarters), while prioritizing free cash flow and disciplined CapEx (Cable & Sky Q2 CapEx MXN3.6bn = 25.3% of sales; Cable+Sky operating cash flow MXN2.4bn = 16.6% of sales; TelevisaUnivision Q2 CapEx $36m and full‑year 2026 CapEx expected consistent with 2025). They expect Q3 U.S. advertising to be broadly consistent with Q2 and H2‑2026 to be partially offset by continued World Cup momentum in Mexico/LatAm and Q4 U.S. political advertising; balance‑sheet targets highlighted included Grupo Televisa leverage ~1.6x EBITDA (vs. 2.4x at Q2‑2023) and TelevisaUnivision net debt/EBITDA ~5.5x (cash $766m; ~$770m available facilities).
Stabilized and Improving Subscriber Metrics
Internet subscriber base stabilized and grew sequentially for 5 consecutive quarters; churn remained below 2% for 5 consecutive quarters and reached the lowest level in the last 10 quarters in Q2 2026.
Residential & Enterprise Revenue Growth
Residential and enterprise revenue for H1 2026 was MXN 23.7 billion, up 2.6% year-on-year; Q2 residential net revenue MXN 10.7 billion, up 1.8% year-on-year and +1.1% sequentially — best quarterly residential revenue performance in ~2.5 years.
Margin Expansion and Profitability Improvement
Operating segment income margin expanded to 40.7% (up ~260 bps vs three years ago) and Cable+Sky operating segment income margin reached 41.8%, up 310 bps year-on-year; Cable+Sky operating segment income increased 5% YoY to MXN 6.0 billion.
Material OpEx Reductions
Annual OpEx declined to MXN 34.5 billion, an 18.4% reduction from MXN 42.2 billion three years prior despite cumulative inflation of 14.7%; programming costs cut ~20% over the same period.
Headcount and Labor Cost Improvements
Employee count reduced from ~34,000 to ~25,000 (≈9,000 reduction), enabling labor cost reductions of nearly 8% despite cumulative minimum wage increases of >50% over 3 years.
Accelerated FTTH Rollout
Committed to upgrading 100% of 20 million homes to fiber-to-the-home; passed ~12 million homes and upgraded ~1.5 million homes in the quarter (≈60% footprint passed), on track for full FTTH by end of Q2 2027.
Disciplined CapEx and Strong Cash Generation
Average annual CapEx of MXN 11.3 billion (36.5% lower than pre-turnaround average) and aggregate CapEx/sales 18.5% vs 25.8% before; cumulative free cash flow of MXN 16.4 billion over 3 years (~$300M/year), or MXN 20.6 billion excluding network upgrade (~$375M/year).
Leverage Reduction at Grupo Televisa
Grupo Televisa leverage declined to 1.6x EBITDA from 2.4x at the end of Q2 2023, reflecting improved cash generation and deleveraging.
Operational Improvements in Net Adds and Churn Trends
Broadband net adds totaled ~80,000 over the last 4 quarters (in line with internal annual goals); Q2 broadband net adds were soft at 9,400 but management attributes this to short-term factors (price increase, competition, rainy season). Video and Sky disconnections improved versus recent averages (video -31k vs avg -38k; Sky -279k RGUs vs avg -326k).
TelevisaUnivision: Strong World Cup-Driven Growth in Mexico and Streaming
TelevisaUnivision revenue rose 10% YoY to $1.3 billion; Mexico revenue surged 53% YoY to $605 million driven by FIFA World Cup. Consolidated subscription and licensing revenue increased 40% YoY, with ViX reporting record subscriber growth and highest quarterly subscription revenue in its history.
