in Cac 40 today, falling as much as 2.8% heading toward its 13th
daily decline over last 14 sessions.
* Jefferies (hold): 2Q Telecom Ebitda may fall ~34% y/y due to
ongoing negative effect of customer repricing, compounded by
higher marketing costs
* Upside case from a sale and carve up of Bouygues Telecom
now feels distant
* As economy improves, co.’s construction business may
find itself executing on work that was secured at lower
prices during downturn
* Keeps hold rating and lowers PT by 17% to EU25 (~8%
discount)
* Bouygues scheduled to report 2Q results on Aug. 28
