Shenandoah Telecom

At the Technology Leadership Forum 2026, Shenandoah Telecommunications highlighted its focus on expanding Glo Fiber, with over 100,000 subscribers and 33% revenue growth in the second quarter. Management expects annual revenue increases of 4–5%, EBITDA growth in the low double digits, and margin expansion of 300–400 basis points per year to above 40%. Consolidated capital intensity is forecast to fall below 30% in 2025, enabling a return to positive free cash flow in 2025 after four years of negative free cash flows. The cable business faces price and competitive pressure in rural markets; Starlink is viewed as a niche competitor, while business-customer fiber and data-center connectivity are seen as capital-light growth areas. » Mere på de.investing.com
