Spanish trade unions have accepted Zegona Communications’ revised workforce reduction plan for Vodafone Spain.
The sale of Vodafone Spain to Zegona Communications has been finalized following approval from Spanish regulators. This landmark deal, valued at €5 billion, includes €4.1 billion in cash and €0.9 billion in redeemable preference shares. Initially announced last October, the transaction received regulatory approval earlier this month. Zegona hailed the deal as the “largest ever reverse takeover.”
European telecoms investment firm, Zegona Communications, is reportedly in advanced talks with Vodafone to acquire a hefty stake in Vodafone Spain. Negotiations heat up amid rising competition in Spain’s telecoms market and looming industry-wide reshuffles. However, questions remain about the potential investment’s structure and implications for Vodafone’s balance sheet.
Vodafone’s Spanish operations have caught the eyes of Zegona, an investment group primarily focused on European TMT sector investment. While speculative reports suggest a valuation of over €5 billion for the entity, Zegona’s possible stake acquisition might be limited to 50%. Amid fluctuating price estimates, discussions are unfolding, revealing a potentially significant shift in the telecommunications landscape.
