Seeking Alpha: America Movil Going Global In A Search For Value

The last year has been a challenging one for America Movil (AMX). While profits are improving in the Brazilian operations, a softer Mexican economy impacted results as regulators increasingly look to clip America Movil's wings. A recent decision to assume operating control of Telekom Austria (OTCPK:TKAGY) is not at all surprising, but the company has yet to clearly outline the value proposition for expansion into Europe as opposed to other Latin American markets. All told, America Movil is likely undervalued today on the basis of is long-term cash flow generation potential, but the company will likely have to show that it can deal with the new regulatory system in Mexico and extract value from Telekom before the Street gives it the full benefit of the doubt.

Investopedia: Increasing Regulatory Burdens Depressing America Movil's Growth

America Movil (NYSE:AMX) has historically been a pretty popular one-stop-shop pick for investors looking for broad exposure to Latin American consumer demand. While the markets have long since evolved beyond a point where investors had few emerging market choices beyond banks, telecom providers, and utilities America Movil still serves a growing region with an increasing focus on high-value bundled services. Worries about regulatory burdens have pushed these shares into value territory, but investors need to appreciate that the company is past the point where underlying market growth can patch over any and all problems.

Seeking Alpha: Is America Movil Still A LatAm Growth Story?

Like people, companies change as they grow older. America Movil (AMX) was once a premier Latin American growth stock at a time when retail investors had few good options for investing in that region. Since then, both the company and its markets have matured, and investors now have numerous other options for investing in emerging markets. Given the company's maturing model and its ventures into Europe, is America Movil still a growth stock and is it still worth owning?

Seeking Alpha: America Movil - "Mature" Doesn't Mean Dead

Although the suppliers of consumer essentials like wireless phone service are supposed to be the safer, less-volatile way to play emerging markets, that wasn't the case in 2011. To name just one example, Latin American giant America Movil (NYSE: AMX) basically fared just as bad as the broader Mexican and LatAm stock markets. While the America Movil story is no longer about pioneering the expansion of wireless service south of the U.S. border, the fact remains that value remains in one of the best-run emerging market corporations.

Trying To Surf Changing Tides In Mexico
America Movil started off as a spin-off of Mexico's fixed-line operator Telmex and Mexico is still a crucial market for the company. More than one-third of the company's revenue comes from here and more than half of corporate EBITDA, due in large part to its approximately 70% share of the wireless market.

Viva La TV!

While debates and arguments about immigration often dominate any conversation about the growing influence of Spanish-speakers in the United States, the reality is that the Spanish-speaking market is major growth market today. With that in mind, Grupo Televisa's (NYSE:TV) recent deal with Univision looks like a classic win-win deal for both parties. 

The Deal
On Tuesday, Televisa announced a $1.2 billion deal with Univision that will further solidify the long-term relationship between these often fractious partners. With the deal, Televisa will get a 5% equity stake in Univision and debentures that can be converted into a further 30% piece of Univision. This is not the first time that Televisa has had an ownership stake in the largest distributor of its programming - prior to Univision's acquisition by private equity, Televisa was a minority investor.
