Back to growth(Price Target raised from € 9.40 to € 12.50; Recommendation upgraded from Reduce to

CoRe Buy)

4 More visibility in Spain. The last two quarters revealed an improving trend for

TEF Spanish operations powered by strategic decisions taken in 2012 (no

subsidization and convergent offers). The risks of ARPU dilution are being

more than compensated by the savings experienced and the transformation of

the market towards convergence which is bound to be a structural competitive

advantage for TEF. Also the commitment to improve efficiency is becoming

evident in the company's results and should help sustain an improving OIBDA

evolution in the coming quarters.

4 Organic OIBDA likely to post growth in 2013. We upgraded our consolidated OIBDA

estimates for 2013 by 4.7% following our more optimistic view on the evolution

of the Spanish market. Following a flattish organic evolution of consolidated

OIBDA in the last two quarters we now expect the company to post positive

organic growth in 2013 ahead of the guidance provided. Aside from this, and

following the announced divestments we now believe that TEF is already on

track to meet its FY net debt guidance.

4 Upgrading our recommendation to CoRe Buy. We have updated our estimates,

reflecting our revised macro assumptions, including the cut in the Spanish

Rf+CrP from 5% to 4.1%, and raised our YE13 Price Target to € 12.50 (+33%).

An improving trend in TEF Spanish operations, an astonishing delivery in balance

sheet deleverage and a still enticing outlook for Latam are compelling arguments

to be positive on the investment case. Aside from this we anticipate some

tailwinds from European regulation that could be particularly beneficial for

TEF given the intense competition witnessed currently in Spain. CoRe Buy.

MARKET SEEMS OVERLY CONSERVATIVE IN SPAIN

Results of the change in strategy more visible now

TEF launched during 2012 several structural changes in its strategy for the Spanish

market with important impact in financials. Of those we highlight the following:

i) End of handsets subsidization

ii) Progressive elimination of the loyalty program

iii) Launch of a convergent offer

i) End of handsets subsidization

TEF announced in the first quarter of last year the end of handsets subsidization.

Orange decided not to follow while Vodafone tried to pursue the same policy.

Nonetheless, a few months down the road VOD introduced again subsidization

due to the intense competition from Orange, Yoigo and the MVNOs. The decision

to eliminate subsidization had a powerful impact in TEF’s financials (more visible

in the last three quarters) reducing significantly commercial costs through lower

volume of handsets sales as well as through lower subscriber acquisition costs.

ii) Progressive elimination of the loyalty program

The loyalty program consisted in attributing points based on the level of consumption

that could be used as discounts in the renewal of equipments. The loyalty program

was a major source of subsidization as operators frequently offered additional points

at the time of the renewal of equipment. TEF decided first to eliminate the offer of

points at the time of the renewal of equipment and then in a second stage migrate

clients to packages that did not offer points for consumption like the convergent

offer "Movistar Fusion".

iii) Launch of a convergent offer

TEF launch of Movistar Fusion last October has been a huge success and kicked a

structural transformation of the market particularly meaningful for the mobile

segment. We believe that this offer empowered by FTTH connections provide TEF

a strong competitive advantage and reinforces the commitment to reduce commercial

expenses by reducing churn and by using the wireline service as the tool to attract

mobile customers (instead of handsets subsidization).

Equity Research 4 Telefonica 4 May 2013

Due to the lag of implementation, the impact of these initiatives only revealed

profitability improvements in the last two quarters. However, since the 3Q last

year, when TEF reported handsets revenues down 38% yoy (+6.4% and + 2.7% in

the previous two quarters) the effects in financials started being noticeable.

Handset revenues in Spain (€ mn)

Source: Telefonica.

The main risk of Movistar Fusion is its ARPU dilutive nature as its main selling

point is savings for the user in the telecommunication monthly cost. At the same

time, the end of subsidization and loyalty program implies an important loss of

subscribers and one could argue that it is also ARPU dilutive. Therefore pressure

in customer revenues from TEF’s new policy is unavoidable.

Despite the anticipated pressure, mobile customer revenues have improved in the

last couple of quarters due to the impact of the loyalty program. The points attributed

under this program (both on a monthly basis as well as those attributed at the

renewal of the handset) are recorded as minus revenues. Excluding this effect we

believe the underlying trend has been relatively stable and should improve in the 2H of the

year as comparables become more benign. It is worth highlighting that 2Q results

should still reflect the positive impact of the loyalty program.

Service revenues evolution in Spain (yoy)

Source: Telefonica.

While it is always difficult to assess how good a strategic shift has been because we

never know the results of the alternative scenario, it seems that ending the loyalties

program has been the right strategy. TEF apparently did not erode the underlying

trend and still benefited from the savings (which were previously recorded as minus

revenues) of the implied subsidization. 3Q will likely be clean of the loyalty program

impact and therefore more depressed but, it is also true that the subscriber base

has reduced significantly the number of subscribers willing to churn to find the

best handset offer. Moreover, the first wave of convergent offers has been very

strong boosting churn levels. As soon as the first wave of convergence fades, churn

will likely come down and stabilize at lower levels than before.

In the wireline, we expect the trend to continue improving throughout the year

empowered by increasing penetration of convergence and FTTH connections that

constitute an important leverage vis-à-vis the competition. All in all, we expect Spanish

service revenues (including wireline and mobile) to fall 9.8% in FY13 vs. 12% in Q1.

The devil is in the details!

We continue to witness some excessive conservativeness in margins estimates, in

our view. The company revealed a strong optimism on its ability to continue to trim

down costs across the board in its last results' conference call and the trend seems

enthusiastic.

Equity Research 4 Telefonica 4 May 2013

Commercial costs have been the main source of Opex cuts, reflecting the new

strategic approach of the company for Spain. To better scrutinize this caption we

prefer to look at it net of handset sales to better understand the trends in

subsidization (by cutting handset sales it is possible to improve margins but only

improves OIBDA if subscriber acquisition costs [SAC] decreases).

Commercial costs evolution (€ mn)

Source: BPI Equity Research.

Looking in detail we believe that commercial costs will be a source of pressure in the

OIBDA yoy trend in the coming quarters. The reason behind is that churn levels were

very low in the 2Q and 3Q last year (1.7%) and unlikely to be repeated this year

given the intense competitive environment. Moreover, in the 1Q results comparables

were somewhat benign as churn in 1Q12 stood at 2.8% (dropping to 2.3% in

1Q13) and still SACs only dropped by 5% indicating an increase in SAC per gross

add. Our reading is that the competitive environment does not allow TEF to reduce

much more its levels of SACs. Finally we expect some acceleration in handset revenues

following some promotions by TEF, as users start to get acquainted with the leasing

model. Although this trend is likely to pressure commercial costs, it should have a

meaningless impact in OIBDA. We expect commercial costs and handset revenues

to fall yoy in 2013 by 18.3% and 44.5%, respectively (37.8% and 67.5% in the

1Q13).

Personnel costs with room for surprises… Telefonica is currently underway with its

restructuring plan and we estimate that around 5K employees have already left the

company under this program. When analysing the numbers reported in the 1Q

personnel costs seem oddly high, dropping only 3% which compares with 13%

and 9% falls in previous quarters. Considering that the program to cut down

employees is still not finished (around 2k still expected to accept early retirement)

and that the impact drags for a few quarters, we believe 1Q evolution does not

reflect the expected trend for the FY. We estimate a 6.9% fall in 2013.

Aside from commercial and personnel costs the company anticipates further

efficiencies from insourcing and deepening in simplification. From the recent

evidence of other operators in distressed markets, we believe TEF still has room to

improve its efficiency levels. Moreover, we believe that Movistar Fusion, by

concentrating several RGUs in a single client’s account, will simplify and optimize

customer care and as the company walks through the learning curve of tackling

the market as an integrated player we expect further efficiencies delivered. TEF

booked a € 233mn Opex ex-commercial while personnel expenses decrease in 1Q

and we expect a € 718mn fall in the FY.

Source: TEF & BPI Equity Research.

All in all we believe that OIBDA yoy trend might worsen slightly in the next quarter

due to tough comparables, on the back of low churn levels in 2Q12, but the trend

should improve in the 2H.

The improvement in service revenues for the 2H of the year coupled with room for

further Opex cuts lead us to expect OIBDA to fall by 7.1% in 2013 vs. a fall of 8.2%

in 1Q13 (-6.3% in organic terms) with room for positive surprises. Looking to

consensus, it seems to be pointing towards a double digit fall in OIBDA for the FY

which we deem as overly conservative leaving room for possible upgrades in the

coming quarters.

UPGRADING ESTIMATES

We have raised our estimates supported by a strong upgrade for TEF’s Spanish

operation. As described before we see an improving trend and more clarity on

TEF’s strategy which, in our view, provides room for upgrades in profitability despite

the additional pressure in top line.

In Latam the upgrades are basically powered by Brazil where we expect a slightly

better outlook and more favourable €/BRL FX. TEF Brazil continues to strengthen

its competitive position in the mobile segment and become a clear winner in the

higher value added customers. The company is poised to lead data revolution in

Brazil and we still see room for higher efficiency in the post-merger process. On

the other hand, the wireline continues to be a concern as competition remains

tough and we fail to see decisive steps to empower the Pay-TV business.

Also worth highlighting are the downgrades in Chile (-10% in OIBDA13) and

Mexico (-26%) that posted disappointing results in the 1Q results. These downgrades

were offset by upgrades in Argentina (+23%) and Venezuela (+20%) due changes

in FX estimates in the first case and ability to partially offset the Bolivar devaluation

with price increases (ARPU in 1Q raised 13% in local currency) against our previous

expectation.

In UK, similarly to Spain, we also expect an improvement in profitability despite

having to cut our top line estimates. However, we have to stress that in this case

the improvement in top line trend is much clearer than in Spain. The main reason

behind our optimism in profitability is the company’s success in increasing its

TEF group change in estimates

contract mix and decreasing churn which consequently reduces significantly

commercial costs. We expect commercial cost to decrease by 12% in 2013. The

German unit is being impacted by a high competitive environment that is pressuring

voice prices down which we attribute to the concentrated decrease of mobile

termination rates in 2013.

OIBDA organic evolution (yoy)

Source: Telefonica.

From a consolidated view the trend of the business seems to be improving for the

fourth consecutive quarter and is now presenting a flattish organic OIBDA growth.

We believe TEF will surpass easily its 2013 guidance of organic revenue growth

and lower decline in margins than in 2012. Indeed we believe revenue growth

should stand in line with expectations with slight growth (+0.4%) but margins

have room for positive surprises and should decrease only marginally (-0.1pp).

Therefore, we expect consolidated OIBDA to raise 0.3% organically, which implies

a slight improvement in the trend for the remaining of the year. We do not exclude

some upside risks to our estimates. On capex we remain conservative as the

company's challenges on this front are multiple, though acknowledging that recent

agreements for shared investments provide some optimism.

Regarding Net Debt, which has been one the investment case�s main caveats, we

believe that the announced divestments already ensures TEF is able to meet it�s FY

guidance. Nonetheless, TEF indicated that it will likely continue to de-leverage

which if confirmed will provide TEF with balance sheet flexibility and allow the

company to consider other value creation opportunities.

VALUATION SUMMARY

Following the upgrade in our consolidated estimates, we have upgraded our valuation

by 33%. The main contributions to this upgrade were a 30% increase in the

valuation of the Spanish unit (+16% excluding the decrease of Rf+CrP from 5% to

4.1%) and a c. 25% raise in Latam brought mainly by upgrades in Brazil, Peru,

Central America, Argentina and Venezuela.

Our valuation for the Latam unit implies a 9.8x Op.CF13 or 5.0x EV/EBITDA13 with

a weighted average real WACC of 8.1% and an Op.CF CAGR13-20 of 4.2% in

Euros. Brazil is the main asset of Latam and is worth 44% of the total value of the

Latam unit. Our DCF valuation for Brazil implies an upside to current market prices of

22%.

We share the market view on the upside potential for Latam and the importance

mobile data should have to monetize this potential. Nonetheless, we diverge in the

valuation of Argentina and Venezuela units where we prefer to have a more

conservative stance given the underlying political risks added to the difficulties to

transfer funds out of these countries. We value these assets at 2.1x and 2.5x EV/

EBITDA, respectively.

After Brazil, Mexico is the second most important country in TEF’s latam coverage

and probably the one where TEF has more upside risks. The regulation changes

that are in process of being approved might reduce the hegemony of Carlos Slim’s

group and allow TEF to extract a lot more value from the country. Our valuation

reflects a conservative scenario in case this scenario materializes or an aggressive

one in case the status quo is maintained.

Following Brazil, Peru and Chile are the second and the third most valuable assets

in TEF Latam portfolio. Peru seems poised to prosper in the coming years with the

IMF anticipating the higher GDP growth in the region. The low levels of ARPU, a

reflection of the depressed GDP per capita coupled with very low levels of data

penetration lead us to anticipate strong growth ahead (Op.CF CAGR13-20 of 8.6%).

TEF dominant position in the country ensures a leading role in capturing this

growth potential, we think. Chile is probably the more stable economy in the region,

though still presenting interesting GDP growth expectations. The stability coupled

with a low tax environment enhances the value of the asset. Strong competition

and the current high ARPU levels cap, in our view, some of the growth potential.

We value Spain through a DCF with a 8.1% WACC, an Op.CF carg13-20 of -2.9%

and an EBIT margin in perpetuity of 31% yielding a 8.3x EV/Op.CF and a 6.4x EV/

EBITDA, 30% up from our last valuation. We cut our Rf+CrP from 5% to 4.1% and

adjust our cost of debt to reflect decreasing risk of Spanish economy but also TEF

healthier balance sheet (down from 6.5% to 5.1%). Excluding this impacts our

valuation would have value raised by 14% or 16% only considering the changes in

Rf+CRP.

A DDM approach is also supportive of our positive recommendation

We decided to cross-check our valuation with a consolidated DDM approach. Our

methodology includes the NPV of the expected dividends in the explicit period

(until 2020) added of a perpetuity based on 2020 FCFE, assuming an implied

100% pay-out thereafter, updated to YE13. We use a blended cost of equity of

11.3% and a perpetuity growth rate of 1.5% on this approach. We then adjust the

equity value adding non-OIBDA and non-dividend contributing assets, tax credits

and deduct other commitments.

To calculate the FCFE released to pay dividends we exclude the listed subsidiaries

(Brazil, Germany and Czech Republic) plus Argentina and Venezuela contribution

and add the expected proportional dividends to be received by these units. We

assume zero dividends from Venezuela and Argentina.

The estimated dividends to be paid by TEF’s parent company are derived from

target leverage below 2x by the end of the explicit period, which we believe is a

long-term sustainable level. Dividends promised for 2014 yield a 7% return and

even under a conservative leverage assumption (<2.0x) we still see room for upgrades

beyond 2016 (inclusive). Our estimated dividend CAGR13-20 stands at 11.7%.

Our DDM valuation seems also supportive of a positive recommendation as we reach a

€ 12.2 fair value per share, 2.8% below our base case. Moreover, we have to stress

that under this methodology Venezuela and Argentina are worth zero which in our

view is overly conservative. For the sake of completeness if we assume that both

Venezuela and Argentina start paying annual dividends beyond 2020 worth 50%

of the respective Op.CF our DDM Fair value would jump to € 12.6 per share.

In November 2007, Banco BPI has celebrated an "Equity Swap" contract with Sonae Investments with strictly financial settlements (Cash Settled Share

Swap Transaction), to cover the inherent risk in the acquisition of 6.64% of Sonae's share capital, at a price of €2.06 per share. In this contract, the

periodic repercussion over Sonae Investments of the amounts corresponding to Sonae share price changes relative to the above-mentioned price was

agreed as well as the amounts equivalent to the proceeds to be received by Banco BPI under the exercise of rights inherent to these shares. The contract

had a maximum maturity of 3 years. In October 2010, the maximum maturity of this "Equity Swap"(covering at such date the inherent risk in respect

of 6.52% of Sonae's share capital) was extended up to 3 years, until November 2013. BPI entered into a liquidity provider agreement with Euronext

Lisbon for the Banco Popular Español shares, being such agreement effective from February 2008.

Banco BPI and/or Banco Português de Investimento participate or have participated, as a syndicate member and/or assisting the issuer, in the share

offerings of Pescanova, La Seda Barcelona and in the bonds offerings of Brisa, EDP, Portugal Telecom, Semapa, Sonae Investimentos, ZON Multimédia
