Here at Zacks, our focus is on the proven Zacks Rank system, which emphasizes earnings estimates and estimate revisions to find great stocks. Nevertheless, we are always paying attention to the latest value, growth, and momentum trends to underscore strong picks.
The fast-track 5G rollout and solid wireless traction should help the Zacks Wireless Non-US industry thrive despite short-term headwinds. AMX, SKM and SFTBY are well-positioned to make the most of the demand for seamless connectivity solutions.
SK Telecom retains a "Buy" rating, driven by robust AI data center (AIDC) growth and potential funding from reputable investors. The company's AIDC revenues surged 89% YoY in 1Q26, with ambitious plans for up to 15GW capacity, far outpacing domestic peers. SKM's diverse funding strategies, including third-party capital, should limit financial leverage risks as it scales up its AIDC network.
I stick with a 'Buy' rating for SK Telecom following my assessment of its financial performance and re-rating triggers. SKM's 1Q2026 operating profit represented a 4.7% beat over consensus. This is attributable to up-selling, portfolio reshaping, and AI-driven growth in data center operations. SKM is getting closer to realizing the full-year dividend restoration and Anthropic stake monetization catalysts in my view.
