MTNGH is up 1.66% today — a move larger than 95% of its recent daily range.
We did not find an obvious news catalyst in the last few days. Moves like this on thin liquidity often reflect a small order imbalance rather than fresh information.
Possible explanations, not causation. Attribution is heuristic — a headline mentioning this ticker does not prove it moved the price.

Fundamentals & ratios
Trailing twelve-month figures unless otherwise stated. As of 2025-12-31.
| Metric | Value | Read |
|---|---|---|
| P/E | 8.8 | Price per share / trailing EPS. Low P/E ≠ cheap; interpret alongside growth and payout. |
| P/B | 2.99 | Price / book value per share. Banks trade on P/B; industrials on P/E. |
| Trailing dividend yield | 7.35% | Current yield based on the last declared dividend. Check payout ratio for durability. |
| ROE | 34.1% | Return on equity. Above 20% is strong on a sustained basis. |
| ROA | 17.2% | Asset efficiency. Banks run low ROA (capital-intensive); consumer names higher. |
| Debt / Equity | 0.21 | Leverage read. Financials are structurally high-D/E; interpret vs sector. |
| Payout ratio | 64% | Dividends / earnings. Very high payouts are harder to sustain through an earnings dip. |
| Dividend cover | 1.56× | EPS / DPS. Below 1× means the company paid more than it earned. |
| Current ratio | 1.22× | Short-term liquidity. Above 1 means current assets cover current liabilities. |

Telecom-specific metrics
Industry-specific fundamentals for MTNGH. Grades are rules of thumb, not regulatory thresholds.
Total sub base. Track growth vs the network capex intensity below.
Data-active subs are typically higher-ARPU than voice-only.
Average revenue per user. ARPU trending down while subs grow = commoditisation.
MoMo is an increasingly material revenue line. E-levy changes flow here first.
Long-term telecom investment case is data, not voice.
Core top-line ex-one-off items.
Capex as a share of revenue. High capex is fine if it's building data capacity; low capex can signal under-investment.
Descriptive only. Not investment advice.
Earnings history
Annual revenue (outer bar) and net income (inner bar) in GHS. Height is relative; read the axis.
Dividend history
Declared dividend per share by fiscal year
Latest payout ratio approx 64% of net income. Last DPS GH₵0.18.
Educational valuation scenarios
Four independent models. Assumption-sensitive ranges — not recommendations, not price targets.
Assumptions and caveats
- Starting FCF (TTM): GHS 2.90B
- Stage-1 growth (years 1-5): 15.0% per year
- Terminal growth: 6.0%
- Discount rate range: 20–24%
Assumptions and caveats
- EPS (TTM): GHS 0.28
- Book value / share: GHS 0.82
- Formula: √(22.5 × EPS × BVPS)
- ⚠ Designed for defensive, earnings-positive companies.
- ⚠ Biased conservative — interpret as a ceiling, not a target.
Assumptions and caveats
- Earnings growth (5y CAGR): 26.8%
- Dividend yield: 7.35%
- Fair PE: 34.1
- EPS (TTM): GHS 0.28
- ⚠ Assumes the historic growth rate persists. Capped between PE 5 and PE 40.
Assumptions and caveats
- Current DPS: GHS 0.18
- Dividend growth (hist.): 20.0%
- Required return range: 24–20%
- ⚠ Extreme sensitivity to the growth-vs-discount gap.
- ⚠ Only meaningful for established dividend payers.
Educational models. Intrinsic value is an estimate, not a forecast. Ghana-aware discount rates (20–24%) reflect local sovereign yields. Nothing on this card is a recommendation to buy or sell.
Valuation toolkit
Interactive dividend-discount and two-stage DCF calculators. Inputs are seeded from public fundamentals and Ghana-specific defaults — change them to see how the implied fair value moves. Educational only. Not a fair-value target, not investment advice.
Dividend Discount Model (Gordon)
Fair value = DPS × (1 + g) / (r − g)
- ⚠ Required return must exceed dividend growth — otherwise the model diverges.
Two-stage DCF
5 years of explicit growth + Gordon-growth terminal value, discounted to today.
Outputs are educational estimates subject to input assumptions. Not a fair-value target, not investment advice. How calculated?
MTNGH dividend yield vs T-Bills
Informational comparison. T-Bills are near-risk-free; dividend yield carries principal risk. Not investment advice.

Real yields subtract Ghana's current CPI. A negative real yield means your purchasing power is eroding, nominal income notwithstanding.
