Millicom Rallies After Strong Q2 Results, Higher 2026 Cash Flow Outlook

None

Millicom International Cellular S.A. (TIGO) is up 16.2% today. Here is some analysis on what might have caused this price movement. ([marketbeat.com](https://www.marketbeat.com/earnings/reports/2026-8-6-millicom-international-cellular-sa-stock/))

Analysis: The move appears tied to a strong second-quarter report, a higher 2026 equity free cash flow target, and a newly declared interim dividend. Investors also seem to be responding to record adjusted EBITDA and equity free cash flow, which reinforced the company’s message that its recent acquisitions are already contributing to cash generation.

Details:

  • Second-quarter revenue reached $2.18 billion, while service revenue was $2.04 billion and adjusted EBITDA topped $1.01 billion for the first time in company history.

  • Equity free cash flow hit a quarterly record of $327 million, and management raised full-year 2026 equity free cash flow guidance to around $1.1 billion from at least $900 million.

  • The company also lowered its year-end leverage target to below 2.5x, which likely supported confidence in balance-sheet improvement alongside growth.

  • Millicom declared an additional interim dividend of $1.50 per share, payable in two $0.75 installments in 2027, while management highlighted strong postpaid growth and healthy momentum in markets such as Colombia and Guatemala.
