What the Analysts think about Helios Towers

Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Helios Towers stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Helios Towers stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

H1 revenue rose 11%, Adjusted EBITDA 14% and tenancies 13% year on year. Record additions led Helios to raise 2026 guidance twice, now targeting 3,500–4,000 new tenancies and US$520m–US$535m of Adjusted EBITDA. (Helios Towers)
The business has US$5.9bn of future contracted revenue with an average remaining initial life of 6.5 years. About 98% comes from large multinational mobile operators and roughly 70% from investment-grade customers, supporting revenue visibility and counterparty quality. (Helios Towers, TelecomTV)
Net leverage fell to 3.4 times year on year, while refinancing reduced the cost of debt by about 40 basis points to 6.7% and extended average maturities. The company also completed US$34m of 2026 buybacks by late July and announced its first dividend, giving shareholders a clearer cash-return case. (Helios Towers, LSE.co.uk)
Higher operating earnings have not translated into stronger statutory profit: first-half pretax profit fell to US$39.9m from US$77.3m. Finance costs rose sharply to US$125.8m from US$73.7m, showing how debt and financing movements can absorb operational progress. (LSE.co.uk)
The balance sheet remains heavily exposed to refinancing and emerging-market credit risk, with outstanding loans of about US$1.8bn and net leverage still at 3.4 times. Fitch warns that fragile economic structures, uncertain regulation and possible currency de-pegging or de-dollarisation could weaken the company’s business profile or debt-servicing capacity. (Investegate, Dmarketforces)
The upgraded growth plan requires materially more capital: discretionary capex guidance increased to US$215m–US$245m, and about 250 of the additional 500 targeted tenancies require new sites. Much of the benefit is therefore delayed, with the incremental tenancies expected to generate more than US$10m of annualised Adjusted EBITDA from 2027 rather than immediately.
