Q2 2026 Earnings Call Summary

Q2 2026
Earnings Call Date:Jul 23, 2026|
% Change Since:
|
Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive
The call highlights a clear and material turnaround in telecom operations: strong cost efficiencies, margin expansion, disciplined CapEx, robust free cash flow and accelerated FTTH rollout. These operational strengths are partially offset by near‑term top‑line pressures in certain businesses — notably Sky's subscriber declines, U.S. advertising weakness and a modest adjusted EBITDA decline at TelevisaUnivision — and elevated leverage at TelevisaUnivision. Overall, the company appears on a healthier financial and operational footing with identifiable paths to address media‑segment softness.
Company Guidance
The call’s forward-looking guidance stressed a cash‑first FTTH rollout and disciplined cost/CapEx management: management is on track to complete a full FTTH upgrade by end‑Q2 2027 (20.0m homes total, ~12.0m homes passed in 18 months and ~60% of footprint passed after upgrading ~1.5m homes in Q2), while keeping monthly churn below 2% for five consecutive quarters (Q2 the lowest in 10 quarters); H1 residential+enterprise revenue was MXN 23.7bn (+2.6% YoY) with Q2 residential revenue MXN 10.7bn (+1.8% YoY, +1.1% seq), broadband net adds were 9.4k in Q2 (>80k over the last 4 quarters), video lost 31k RGU (vs ~38k avg), and mobile added 72k (vs ~92k avg). Profitability momentum is expected to continue after Q2 segment revenue of MXN 14.3bn (‑3% YoY) and operating segment income of MXN 6.0bn (+5% YoY) producing a 41.8% segment margin (+310 bps YoY) aided by an 8% OpEx decline; annual OpEx has fallen to MXN 34.5bn (‑18.4% vs MXN 42.2bn three years ago), headcount is ~25k (vs ~34k mid‑2023), labor costs are down ~8% despite >50% cumulative minimum wage increases, and programming costs are down ~20%. CapEx discipline remains central: Q2 CapEx MXN 3.6bn (25.3% of sales), EBITDA‑minus‑CapEx (operating cash flow) MXN 2.4bn (16.6% of sales), average annual CapEx ~MXN 11.3bn (‑36.5% vs pre‑turnaround) with CapEx/sales ~18.5% (organic ~MXN 9.1bn, ~14.9% ex‑upgrade), cumulative free cash flow ~MXN 16.4bn (~$300m/yr) or MXN 20.6bn (~$375m/yr) ex‑upgrade, and corporate leverage down to 1.6x EBITDA from 2.4x at end‑Q2 2023. For TelevisaUnivision, management expects Q3 U.S. ad trends broadly consistent with Q2, continued World Cup momentum in Mexico/LatAm and Q4 U.S. political spend to help H2: Q2 revenue was $1.3bn (+10% YoY; Mexico $605m +53%, U.S. $722m −11%), adjusted EBITDA $388m (‑3%), subs/licensing +40% (incl. ~$90m World Cup sublicensing), cash $766m with ~$770m available capacity, quarterly CapEx $36m (FY guidance in line with 2025), and net debt/EBITDA ~5.5x (improved from 5.7x).
