If a deal is finalised, the merged business combining the two companies’ South Asian and Southeast Asian operations will likely be owned 56.5 percent by the Norwegian mobile operator and 43.5 percent by Axiata, they said. “With its unique portfolio, the MergedCo will be one of the largest telecommunications groups in the region in terms of value, revenue and profit, and with a strengthened balance sheet to support aggressive growth and expansion,” Axiata said.
The annual pro-forma revenue for the jointly owned company is estimated at $13 billion, with earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization of $5.5 billion before any savings are realized.
