    Kinetic’s new partnership with SKYOVI gives Uniti Group (UNIT) an AI driven tool for planning last mile fiber connections, while Uniti Wholesale is widening high capacity data center links with promotional wavelength offers.

    Against this product roll out backdrop, Uniti Group’s share price has been under pressure, with the 30 day return down 33.83% and the 90 day move down 43.82%, even though the 7 day share price return is up 4.08% and the 1 year total shareholder return is down 14.38%.

    After a sharp slide over the past quarter and a small bounce in the last week, Uniti Group now sits at a very different price than it did this summer. Given the current valuation, investors may be weighing whether it makes more sense to commit capital at this level or wait for a deeper pullback before stepping in.

    Most Popular Narrative: 50% Undervalued

    On the most followed view of Uniti Group, a fair value of $10.78 sits well above the last close at $5.36. This puts the recent share price slide against a narrative that still sees meaningful upside if the thesis plays out.

    Expected AI driven dark fiber builds for hyperscalers, where Uniti Group targets about US$1.5b of nonrecurring revenue from 2026 to 2028 plus roughly US$500m of recurring annual lease-up over time, together with anchor-plus-lease-up IRRs around 35% on largely contiguous network builds, provide a visible path to higher revenue and potentially stronger margins.

    See why 14 investors see Uniti Group as 50% undervalued.

    Result: Fair Value of $10.78 (UNDERVALUED)

    Still, funding strain and declining legacy services could pressure Uniti Group if heavy capex, leverage, and refinancing costs do not translate into durable fiber cash flows.
