Under Rosmarin’s tenure, Optus experienced market share growth and financial improvements but faced setbacks requiring renewed efforts to rebuild customer trust. These challenges have been underscored by two significant scandals since April 2020, highlighting the need for improved risk management and operational oversight within the company.
The shake-up at Optus comes amidst a broader context where Singtel’s shares have experienced a decline of over 9% year-to-date. Despite this downturn, analysts maintain a strong buy position on Singtel with a target price set at S$3.02.
In related market movements, Telstra (OTC:TLGPY) Group Ltd’s shares showed a minor decrease of 0.5%, demonstrating relative stability since the beginning of November and reflecting an overall 3% decrease year-to-date. This stability suggests that Telstra may be in a position to capitalize on Optus’s operational challenges by potentially attracting customers looking for alternative service providers.
