Millicom
(Tigo) announces potential acquisitions in Colombia
Luxembourg, July
31st, 2024 – Millicom (NASDAQ: TIGO) and Telefonica today announced that they have entered into a non-binding memorandum
of understanding for the potential combination of Telefonica Colombia (Coltel) and TigoUne. The discussions include the potential acquisition
by Millicom of Telefonica’s stake in Coltel for approximately $400 million in cash.
Millicom also intends
to offer to purchase La Nación’s and other minority interests in Coltel for cash at the same purchase price per share offered
to Telefonica. Additionally, Millicom intends to offer to purchase Empresas Públicas de Medellin’s (EPM) 50% interest in
TigoUne for cash at a comparable valuation multiple as the one implied by the Coltel acquisition.
Millicom plans to
fund the proposed aggregate investment of approximately $1 billion in cash and assumed debt with equity free cash flow projected over
the next 18 months, consistent with the company’s long-range plan. The transaction remains subject to negotiation and signature
of definitive agreements with all parties involved, including Telefonica, La Nación and EPM, as well as receipt of regulatory
and antitrust approvals and satisfaction of other closing conditions. There is no certainty the transaction will ultimately be consummated.
The proposed combined
entity would rejuvenate Colombia's telecom sector by forming a robust telecom entity with the necessary scale and financial capacity
to support the significant network and spectrum investments required to achieve Colombia's ambitious digital inclusion objectives. Colombia
will gain a second large scale and financially viable operator at a crucial moment. This strengthened operator would bolster the digitalization
of Colombia, ensure broader access to modern digital services across the country and advance the deployment of both Fiber and 5G technologies
across the country, thereby enabling faster and more reliable services and an improved customer experience.

information was, prior to this release, inside information and is information that Millicom is obliged to make public pursuant to the
