Charter Communications (CHTR) Gets a Buy from Evercore ISIWe model break-even broadband subs in 1Q and 50 net losses for the year. Meanwhile, mobile continues to ramp meaningfully while video sub losses were surprisingly narrow driven by management’s efforts to reshape the video marketplace by pushing for more flexible packages with improved value (even before the full rollout of seamless entertainment packages and marketing; positive read across to linear media). Visibility might be low on broadband, but is high and improving on the FCF inflection ahead moving past the peak of the investment cycle this year – we forecast $3.5bn/$5.1bn/$6.6bn of FCF and $23/$38/$55 of FCF/share in 2025/26/27. EBITDA grew 3.1% y/y in 2024, and management expects EBITDA to grow again in 2025 despite headwinds against political advertising and the full-year impact of the outsized ACP-centric sub losses/ We model EBITDA up 1.5% in 2025 and 4.0% in 2026.

Charter Communications: Strong Q4 Performance and 2025 Optimism Drive Buy RatingWe believe these offerings could actually make video a successful weapon at taking share and reducing subscriber churn. We reiterate that the converged wireline/wireless offering is the key cable weapon against its competitors because they can offer these best in class services everywhere and at a dramatically lower price where competitors offer a similar product. The contrast between CMCSA’s disappointing 4Q results/outlook and CHTR’s highlights why Comcast has elected to move far more aggressively toward CHTR’s strategy (which by 2H of may start to pay off for them).
