  Citi lowered its price target for Telstra Group to A$5.25 from A$5.50, a 5% cut, following a modest reduction in its earnings forecasts. The broker maintained its Neutral rating, saying the Australian telecom operator remains on track to achieve its FY2027 targets and longer-term FY2030 objectives. Telstra announced a A$1 billion share buyback and reported a marginal increase in annual profit on Thursday. Citi expects mobile service revenue growth to accelerate to around 5% in FY2027, supported by higher average revenue per postpaid user. The broker also sees potential earnings upside from stronger cost discipline, although postpaid subscriber numbers continue to decline. Citi reduced its FY2027 post-lease EBITDA forecast by up to 1% and basic net profit estimates by up to 2%. Despite the revisions, the firm continues to view Telstra's operating outlook as broadly consistent with management's targets. $C

  @Buccoatthecat @RouleurCapital @DHughesy Yes we get to vote them out periodically. We get a say Can I vote out Telstra & use a rival 000 service when they screw up. The energy infrastructure is owned by 1 priv company in SA. They dictate charges. The public cant just simply not buy ( energy ) what they are offering🤷

  @optus_help They have my number and details but the connectivity issues are ongoing and horrendous right now. Connected for short periods and not atleast 20 drop outs today alone. It's annoying. I dont want compensation AGAIN i just want the service I'm paying for. I think that's fair. It’s annoying we were without service for 7 days of total blackout to upgrade the tower and a month or so later massive issues. It's not good enough. Having said that annoyed as i am i will still remain a loyal customer because overall i have found you are by far better than Telstra!

  @chdyctt I cancelled a contract with Optus 10 years ago due to their relocated contact centre. Was awful, but Telstra ended being cheaper believe it or not. In saying that, communications need to be explained easy & not written by AI and signed off.

  Why are you fuckwits so dim? @eddys199 Australia was NOT debt-free in 2006. The Commonwealth had NET debt after selling our gold and major assets like Telstra. Australia still had significant state debt. The trouble with you morons is you read a headline, dive into a rabbit hole that even rabbits won't go in and come out all covered in old mouldy ****. Major contributors included: →Selling public assets (privatisations), most notably the government's remaining stake in Telstra, which raised tens of billions of dollars. →Strong economic growth during the mining boom, which boosted tax revenues. →A long period without major recessions or global crises until the GFC. Pauline Hanson is looking for a house 'friend' - you should apply.
