Telekom Srbija Group ("Telekom Srbija") announced that it has agreed to acquire a 100% stake in Eon TV International Ltd (the holding company of NetTV Plus), direct-to-home (DTH) operations under EoNSat and Total TV in Serbia and North Macedonia, as well as specific rights, licenses, and other assets related to Sport Klub channels for the Western Balkans (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, North Macedonia, and Serbia), either directly or indirectly, from United Group B.V. ("United Group") for a total consideration of €652 million, excluding cash and debt.
According to the company, the acquisition is expected to generate significant synergies, increase revenue, and reduce costs.
"These transactions align with Telekom Srbija's strategy to establish itself as the leading telecommunications company in the Western Balkans, with projected revenues reaching €3 billion by 2030. Following the successful issuance of eurobonds in 2024, amounting to $900 million, today’s acquisition of United Group's assets will further strengthen Telekom Srbija’s position in the region and among the diaspora of the former Yugoslavia," the statement read.
This year has been excellent for Telekom Srbija's shareholders, said the company's CEO, Vladimir Lucic, adding that in 2024, the company continued investing in young tech companies, which, according to him, has proven to be an excellent business move.
