Lumen Technologies: After A Great 2025, Here's What I'm Expecting In 2026

Lumen Technologies No Longer Deserves To Trade At Legacy Telco Multiples
My October bullish call on Lumen Technologies, Inc. was based on EBITDA stability, but Q3 data reveals a more lucrative transformation. LUMN is rapidly evolving from a legacy telco into a high-margin tech platform. I analyze the new P×Q unit economics behind LUMN's NaaS business, which just posted 32% sequential growth and effectively turns the company's fiber infrastructure into software-like recurring revenue. Beyond the fiber backlog, the Connected Ecosystem is turning tech giants like Palantir and Microsoft into sales channels.
