Overview
Telecoms and connectivity businesses typically trade at 3×–6× EBITDA. Recurring monthly contract revenue, infrastructure ownership, and SME customer bases with high switching friction support valuations. ARPU growth from bundled services and fibre rollout exposure strengthen earnings quality. Network infrastructure investment cycles and price competition from major carriers are persistent risk factors.
