Cable One's fair value slashed 30% to $112 amid mixed analyst views on broadband pressures

Cable One's fair value estimate has been cut 30% to $111.75 from $159.25, reflecting a more cautious outlook amid mixed analyst views. TD Cowen reduced its price target to $142 from $260, citing softer broadband average revenue per user and rising competition, whilst BNP Paribas downgraded the stock to Underperform with an $80 target. Some positive signals emerged, with TD Cowen noting mostly in-line results and improving subscriber gross adds and churn trends. However, analysts remain concerned about broader industry headwinds affecting cable operators. Meanwhile, Cable One's Sparklight brand launched a prepaid mobile service starting at $15 monthly and rolled out eero Wi-Fi 7 across its footprint. The company also appointed James Holanda as CEO, expected to join by 31 March 2026.
