The Telstra Corporation Ltd (ASX: TLS) share price has done it again. Telstra
shares are currently trading at $4.14 each, up 0.36% for the day so far this
Christmas Eve.
That’s not all though, folks. Telstra hit a new high of $4.15 a share in intra-day
trading shortly after lunchtime. Not only is that a new 52-week high for this ASX
200 telco, but it’s also the highest share price Telstra has traded at since mid-2017.
https://www.fool.com.au/2021/12/24/telstra-asxtls-share-price-hits-yet-another-52-week-high-whats-going-on/ 1/9
That puts Telstra’s year-to-date gains so far at a very pleasing 37%. Including
Telstra’s dividends and full franking credits, and we’re looking at a return north of
40% for the year (touch wood). Not bad for an old blue-chip like Telstra, one could
say. Especially since this is just the latest in a string of new 52-week highs we have
seen Telstra clock up over 2021.
It’s hard to picture at the current pricing, but it was only back in October last year
that Telstra was hitting a new all-time low of $2.63 share. Since those dog days, the
company is up more than 55%.
So what could be behind today’s most recent push into record territory?
Why is the Telstra share price hitting a new 52-week

high today?
Well, it’s not entirely clear. There are no pre-Christmas items of news out of the
company today. But there are several factors that could be at play. The first is
Telstra’s ongoing share buyback program.
Telstra is currently in the process of buying back its own shares. Just this morning,
it told investors that it bought and retired just over a million shares yesterday. Share
buybacks decrease the number of shares in circulation. Under the laws of supply
and demand, less supply usually translates into higher pricing, so this is why these
buybacks could be relevant.
We could also be seeing the effects of some ASX broker opinions on Telstra play
out. For example, as we covered earlier his week, Goldman Sachs is currently very
bullish on this telco. Goldman currently rates Telstra as a buy with a 12-month
share price target of $4.40. Goldman particularly likes Telstra’s T22 and T25 cost-
cutting strategies, which it believes will help fund a dividend increase by FY2024.
Even today, Telstra’s dividends are offering a fully franked yield of 3.86%.
So perhaps it’s this combination that has resulted in the Telstra share price
reaching this new 52-week high today. Whatever the reasons, it’s likely to have
made more than one Telstra shareholder’s Christmas a merrier one.
At the current Telstra share price, this ASX 200 telco has a market capitalisation of
$48.96 billion, with a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 26.5.

TLS ASX 200
The Telstra Corporation Ltd (ASX: TLS) share price is having a positive December
2021 – it’s currently up around 2%.
That adds to what has actually be a market-beating year for Telstra shares.
The Telstra share price has gone up 38% this year, which compares to the S&P/ASX
200 Index (ASX: XJO) return of 12% this year.
https://www.fool.com.au/2021/12/29/december-is-shaping-up-to-be-pretty-good-for-the-telstra-asxtls-share-price-heres-why/ 1/9
What has been going in December 2021?
The telecommunications giant hasn’t announced much during December 2021. It

has continued with its share buy-back, which is a way to return capital to
shareholders and improve the per-share statistics such as earnings per share
(EPS).
However, there was one market sensitive announcement that was released this
month.
Telstra said that it had secured the maximum possible low band spectrum to
maintain its “leading” mobile network.
Earlier this month, the telco said that it had invested $616 million in the Australian
Communications and Media Authority’s 850/900 MHz band auction to secure
2x10MHz – this is the maximum Telstra could bid for under the competition limits
set by the government.
Telstra now has more spectrum than any other carrier, which it said was important
given the larger customer base and it will help it provide the best mobile coverage
and service.
This spectrum is particularly important for its 5G rollout and it will help provide
better coverage indoors and other difficult to reach places in metro locations.
Over the seven years to the end of FY22, it will have invested $11 billion in its
mobile network nationally, with $4 billion invested in the mobile network. It’s aiming
to provide 5G coverage to 95% of the population by 2025.
What do analysts think of the Telstra share price?
There are quite a few brokers that like Telstra shares at the moment. A recent note
from Ord Minnett re-iterated its buy rating on the telco.
Ord Minnett’s price target on Telstra is $4.60, which is around 10% higher than
where it is today.
The broker notes that the telco is getting stronger in non-metro locations with its
ongoing investment.
Analysts are also positive on the Digicel Pacific acquisition and how it is structured.
It adds to, and diversifies, the telco’s earnings.
Three months ago, Telstra revealed its T25 strategy which involves more network
coverage, profit growth and margin growth, a goal of growing the dividend over time
and a further reduction in costs. It’s looking to reduce net fixed costs by a further
$500 million between FY23 to FY25.
At the current Telstra share price, Ord Minnett thinks that it’s valued at 24x FY23’s
estimated earnings.
The online investing service he’s run for nearly a decade, Motley Fool Share Advisor,
buys.

The Telstra Corporation Ltd (ASX: TLS) share price has had a strong start time to
2022.
Since the year began, it’s hit its 52-week high 3 times, pushing it higher on 2
occasions.
Excitingly, the Telstra share price reached a new 52-week high of $4.28 today.
Though, at the time of writing, it has slipped slightly lower to trade at $4.24, still
representing a 0.47% gain.
For context, the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) is down 0.92% right now.
What’s going on with the Telstra share price in 2022?
The Telstra share price is in the green for this year so far. Not to mention, its stock
has been flying off the shelves.
Of the 8 trading sessions of the year so far – not including today’s –Telstra has
featured in The Motley Fool Australia’s daily breakdown of the most traded ASX 200
shares 5 times.
On top of that, the telecommunication giant’s shares have been significantly

outperforming its sector.
Since the final close of 2021, the S&P/ASX 200 Communication Index (ASX: XTJ)
has slipped 2%. Its biggest weights include Domain Holdings Australia Ltd (ASX:
DHG) and SEEK Limited (ASX: SEK).
Meanwhile, Telstra’s fellow ASX 200 telecommunication provider TPG Telecom Ltd
(ASX: TPG) has seen its stock gain 9%. Though, that of its smaller peer Aussie
Broadband Ltd (ASX: ABB) has tumbled 4%.
While there’s been no price-sensitive news from Telstra in January, brokers remain
bullish on its share price.
As The Motley Fool Australia has previously reported, Ord Minnett and Morgans
both believe the company is worth investing in. They’ve slapped it with price targets
of $4.85 and $4.55 respectively.
The online investing service he’s run for over a decade, Motley Fool Share Advisor,
