  • Telefónica fair value €4.51 vs €3.34 close implies a 26% valuation gap
    January 17, 2026, 8:06 PM EST. Telefónica (BME:TEF) shares fell 1.18% in the latest session and are down 25.8% over three months, with the price at €3.34. The pullback suggests fading short-term momentum, even as a 5-year total shareholder return of 25.36% hints at a longer-run trend. Simply Wall St's fair-value work puts €4.51 as intrinsic value (intrinsic value models estimate what a stock is truly worth) and analyst targets back a discount to the current price, creating a roughly 26% gap. The company is monetizing non-core assets (Argentina, Peru, Colombia, Uruguay, Ecuador) to reduce geographic risk and free more than €3 billion. A focus on core markets-Spain, Brazil, Germany, the UK-could lift free cash flow and ROCE (return on capital employed). Risks include high debt and competitive pricing pressure.
