S&P alters Telecom Italia view to negative

S&P said it revised the outlook for Telecom Italia to negative.

The agency said it forecasts Telecom Italia will cause S&P Global Ratings-adjusted leverage to rise to 4.2x in 2020, outside S&P’s trigger for the rating.

“Leverage will be heightened by weaker domestic EBITDA. We expect fierce competition in the Italian mobile and fixed-line markets will remain, despite calmer churn and promotions during the Covid-19 pandemic,” S&P said in a press release.

From 2021, S&P said it sees stabilizing competition in the Italian mobile market, improving fixed-line trends, and lower cash expenses will help drive cash flow-led deleveraging to 4x, and below.
