Telecom Italia Di Risp

A takeover offer of €10.8 billion from Poste Italiane briefly pushed Telecom Italia shares up 4.2%, while Poste Italiane’s shares fell 7.1%. The offer proposes a price of €0.635 per share, which TIM’s share price remained below. Analysts differ in their assessments: Barclays considers the price too low, Berenberg sees significant synergy potential for Poste, and Morgan Stanley criticizes uncertainties about possible debt Poste might take on for the deal. Telecom Italia could thus return to majority state control three decades after privatization. » Más en finanzen.net

Telecom Italia announced a €400 million share buyback program and reported annual figures showing revenue of €13.7 billion and EBITDA after leasing up 6.5% to €3.7 billion. The board proposed a share consolidation at a 1:10 ratio. For 2026 the company expects revenue to rise 2–3% and EBITDA after leasing to grow 5–6%, with investments to remain below 14% of revenue. About 50% of the expected proceeds from the sale of Sparkle are to be returned to shareholders via share buybacks; the newly announced buyback is part of that strategy. » Más en de.investing.com
