SpaceX Could Disrupt Telcos in Australia, New Zealand

Dow Jones11:29

0329 GMT - Morgan Stanley analysts think that equities markets are underestimating the potential for SpaceX to disrupt telecommunications providers in Australia and New Zealand. They tell clients in a note that SpaceX's ambitions extend far beyond satellite launch services, and into areas including mobile connectivity and AI infrastructure. They warn that Starlink's direct-to-device satellite services could win subscribers and lower the terminal values of existing players such as Telstra, TPG Telecom, Aussie Broadband and Spark NZ. The analysts point out that Australia's large geography, low density and high average revenue per user make it an attractive market. MS lowers its target price on Telstra, TPG Telecom, Aussie Broadband and Spark NZ by between 1.9% and 5.3%, but makes no changes to its prior ratings. (stuart.condie@wsj.com)
