We continue to build an efficient and agile Telekom, that strengthens its market leader positions, develops and grows, hence creates value for shareholders and society as a whole .
The intention of the parties is to close the transaction by the end of this year, subject to regulatory approvals, the due diligence process, the finalization of the contractual terms and signing the legal documentation. The full details of the transaction shall become binding upon signing the final sale and purchase agreement, of which the companies will inform investors and the members of the public later.
