Abstract:This thesis delves into the strategic and operational factors influencing the valuation of telcos, focusing on MNOs and ISPs. Through qualitative analysis in the form of literature study and expert interviews, it identi-fies EBITDA multiples and DCF models as key valuation methods, highlighting revenue, EBITDA, and free cash flow as crucial metrics. The study emphasizes the importance of customer centricity, network in-vestments, and growth, in driving valuation. It explores the perspectives of executives and shareholders on valuation factors, revealing insights into market dynamics, regulatory impacts, strategic positioning, and operational efficiency. Recommendations for telcos include leveraging new revenue streams, en-hancing customer experiences, and strategic risk management to improve valuation in the competitive telecom landscape. This study contributes to the existing literature on subscription based business by exploring their applicability to the telco sector. It paves the way for further inquiry into the effect of differ-ent broadband networks on customer satisfaction, and into the link between bundled services and pro-pensity to churn.
