Kyivstar Group: A Long-Term Owner's View
Ukraine's largest mobile operator plus a digital ecosystem (broadband/TV/cloud/Helsi healthcare/Uklon ride-hailing), 83.6% controlled by VEON. Cash flow has proven resilient through the war, and at roughly 5.3x EV/EBITDA the stock is not expensive on normalized earnings. But heavy capex, a prepaid-dominated base, and geopolitical governance risk leave little visible margin of safety. Rating Watch: a quality business at a price that does not yet pay you to take Ukrainian country risk. Ideal buy 10-12 USD.
30/100
Rogers Communications: A Long-Term Owner's Perspective
A national operator spanning wireless, cable, and media across Canada; a complex large-cap in a good industry, carrying 4.0x leverage and a dual-class governance discount. At the current CAD 52.9 (USD 38.22 on the US listing) the stock sits below neutral intrinsic value yet barely below the conservative range, leaving an inadequate margin of safety. Ideal entry CAD 43-48. Rating Watch: a high-quality but complex asset where price has not yet opened a wide enough margin of safety.
36/100
KDDI From a Long-Term Owner's Perspective
KDDI is one of Japan's three major integrated telecom operators, built around au/UQ/povo plus finance, energy, Lawson, and data centers. It is a high-quality but slow-growing cash-flow business, while false circular transactions at subsidiaries in 2026 forced restatements across multiple reporting periods. Rating Watch: at the current ¥2,706.5, the stock sits near the upper end of conservative intrinsic value of ¥2,300-2,700, with limited discount; the ideal buy range is ¥2,200-2,500.

T-Mobile Long-Term Owner's View Research
T-Mobile is the strongest operator by execution among the U.S. wireless oligopoly, with 2025 service revenue of $71.3 billion and Adjusted FCF of $18.0 billion. The core thesis is that it is a durable, cash-generative compounder, but Deutsche Telekom's 54.5% control, repurchases at an average price of $233, and an ideal buy range of $145-165 limit today's margin of safety. Research rating Watch: a high-quality business that deserves patience rather than aggressive new buying at the current price.
