Liberty Global: Final Look Before The Spin-Off, Sunrise's High Dividends Vs. RemainCo's High Potential Liberty Global is spinning-off the Sunrise shares, that should unlock $10+ value per share. RemainCo is deeply undervalued but facing challenges of highly leveraged assets during the high-capex cycle focused on fiber and 5G to drive long-term returns. Once the Capex cycle is over, these assets have the potential to generate over $1 billion in annual FCF for Liberty Global, driving a huge upside in the share price. seekingalpha.com - 2 weeks ago
