Swisscom - Analysts' Recommendations and Stock Price Forecast (2025)

MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Should I Buy Swisscom Stock? SCMWY Pros and Cons Explained

These pros and cons were generated based on recent news and financial data from MarketBeat in order to provide readers with the fastest and most accurate insights. They were last updated on Friday, January 10, 2025. Please send any questions or comments about these Swisscom pros and cons to contact@marketbeat.com.

Swisscom
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Swisscom:

Swisscom has recently seen a significant drop in short interest, decreasing by 63.2% to 5,600 shares. This indicates a growing confidence among investors, as lower short interest often suggests that fewer investors are betting against the stock.
The stock is currently trading at $56.17, which is relatively stable compared to its fifty-two week high of $66.00. This price point may present a buying opportunity for investors looking for value.
Swisscom has a strong market capitalization of $290.97 billion, which reflects its stability and ability to weather market fluctuations. A higher market cap often indicates a more established company with a solid financial foundation.
Analysts have recently upgraded Swisscom to a "hold" rating, suggesting that they expect the stock to maintain its value and potentially grow, which can be a positive signal for investors.
The company operates in multiple segments, including telecommunications and IT services, which diversifies its revenue streams and reduces risk associated with reliance on a single market.

Swisscom
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Swisscom for these reasons:

Despite the recent drop in short interest, the stock has still experienced a decline of 1.2% in recent trading, which may indicate underlying weaknesses in market sentiment.
Swisscom's current ratio is 0.94, which is below 1.0. This suggests that the company may have difficulty meeting its short-term liabilities, raising concerns about its liquidity.
The company has a relatively low beta of 0.27, indicating that it is less volatile than the market. While this can be seen as a positive, it may also mean that the stock has less potential for significant gains compared to more volatile investments.
With a PE ratio of 15.26, Swisscom's valuation may not be as attractive compared to other growth stocks, which could deter investors seeking higher returns.
The telecommunications industry is highly competitive, and Swisscom faces challenges from both established players and new entrants, which could impact its market share and profitability.
