“I first wrote about Cable One, Inc. (NYSE:CABO) in our Q1 2023 letter, nearly three years ago. I won’t rehash the full thesis here and would point you to that letter for more detail, but at a high level, we invested in Cable One under the belief that its rural Hybrid Fiber-Coaxial (HFC) network would remain defensible against both fiber overbuilders, such as AT&T, and fixed wireless access (FWA) providers like T-Mobile, enabling Cable One to continue subscriber, revenue, and EBITDA growth (even if at a slower pace).
