| dc.description.abstract | CTT is the key player in the logistics and postal sector in Portugal and Spain, with a growing presence in financial services. This thesis conducts an equity research analysis of the company, leading to a buy recommendation. CTT is an undervalued business with the strategy, resources, and incentives to drive growth and strong investor returns. Despite its legacy mail operations, it has successfully leveraged its infrastructure to expand into logistics and banking. Express & Parcels (E&P) has become a key revenue driver, strengthening CTT’s position as a major Iberian player, while Banco CTT continues to grow rapidly. The valuation is supported by a detailed breakdown of revenue drivers, sensitivity analysis, and an assessment of CTT’s capital structure. Market consensus further aligns with this outlook, reinforcing confidence in its long-term potential. The study then examines CTT’s strategic expansion of its Locky smart locker service into Spain, a move aimed at optimizing last-mile delivery and capitalizing on the rising demand for parcel solutions. The research evaluates market potential, competition, and financial feasibility. While Spain presents strong growth opportunities, challenges such as technological adoption and competition must be addressed. By successfully executing this strategy, CTT can establish itself as a strong player in the Spanish smart locker market and further solidify its position as the leading Iberian logistics provider. | pt_PT |
