Rhea-AI Summary

Liberty Latin America (LILAK) reported mixed Q4 and FY 2024 results, with significant achievements in network infrastructure but facing challenges in key markets. The company added ~100,000 organic fixed and mobile subscribers in 2024 and upgraded its network to 97% Gigabit-ready coverage. C&W Caribbean, Panama, and Costa Rica showed strong performance with robust revenue and Adjusted OIBDA growth.

However, Puerto Rico operations remained challenged, impacting overall performance. The company successfully refinanced $3.3bn of C&W credit silo debt, extending the weighted average maturity to 6.5 years. For 2025, management remains committed to previously announced three-year guidance targets for Adjusted OIBDA and Adjusted FCF, despite being behind expectations after year one due to Puerto Rico's slow recovery.

The company is reducing annual expectations for P&E additions to revenue from 16% to 14% to support Adjusted FCF generation.
