布依格電信、Orange和Free-iliad提交了一份204億歐元的更高報價,競購Altice旗下的SFR。

By

-- 布依格電信(Bouygues Telecom,隸屬於布依格集團 (EN.PA, ENNV.PA))、法國電信 (Orange,ORA.PA) 和 Free-iliad 集團已提交新的收購要約,擬以 203.5 億歐元的企業價值收購 Altice France 旗下的 SFR 電信業務。目前,有三家公司已準備就此展開獨家談判。 消息公佈後,截至週五中午,布依格和法國電信的股價在巴黎分別下跌超過 1% 和近 4%。 Altice France 當天發布的聯合聲明顯示,已授予由三家法國電信公司組成的財團獨家談判期,截止日期為 5 月 15 日,以便最終敲定對其 SFR 電信業務的收購。此次最新報價較 Altice 於 2025 年 10 月提出的 170 億歐元初步報價有所提高,該報價已被 Altice 拒絕。 這項擬議交易是在2026年啟動的盡職調查階段之後提出的,交易內容包括Altice France-SFR運營的大部分資產,但不包括部分股權以及Altice France在法國海外省和地區的業務。 該財團將平分收購價格和價值,其中布依格電信(Bouygues Telecom)承擔42%,Orange承擔27%,Free-iliad承擔剩餘的31%。預計該交易將有助於維持和加強法國的數位經濟及其電信產業。 AlphaValue/Baader Europe的分析師在一份報告中指出:“此次收購對布依格和Orange有利,因為它將使法國的電信運營商數量從4家減少到3家。值得注意的是,與首次報價相比,額外增加的33.5億歐元對Orange集團而言僅相當於約9億歐元。” 財團謹慎地表示,新提議能否最終達成協議尚無定論。此外,該交易仍需獲得監管部門的批准,並與相關員工代表機構進行諮詢。
