1. Company Overview

Shenandoah Telecommunications (Shentel) runs fiber broadband, video, and voice services across Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania. Its flagship brand Glo Fiber is expanding fast, with 40%+ YoY revenue growth. Q2 2025 showed revenue at $88.6M (+3.2% YoY), with adjusted EBITDA up 21.9%. Despite a small net loss, the operating trend is improving.

Market cap sits just over $700M, with insiders holding ~11% and institutions ~65%.

2. Why It Matters

• Fiber-to-the-home growth is the story: Q2 Glo Fiber up 40.5%.
• Rural broadband subsidies add a tailwind.
• Institutional inflows are showing up: Southeastern Asset Mgmt (+151%), Longleaf (+151%), RBC (+184%), Two Sigma (+119%), Invesco (+104%).
• Short interest is modest (~4.4% float).

My Take

Insiders are writing 8-figure checks into a depressed tape, institutions are scaling in, and fiber growth is compounding.
