Telefónica strategic divestments in Latin America

Overview

Telefónica is executing a series of strategic divestments across its South American operations. In Mexico, the company is exiting the market after 25 years following authorization from the Comisión Nacional Antimonopolio (CNA) to sell Movistar Mexico to Melisa Acquisition, a consortium comprising OXIO and Newfoundland Capital Management. The transaction is valued at 450 million dollars and is expected to be finalized within six months.

Simultaneously, the company is advancing divestments in Venezuela and Chile. In Venezuela, negotiations are underway to sell its local subsidiary, with a potential market value between 300 and 350 million euros. In Chile, Telefónica and the investment fund KKR have initiated the sale of the neutral fiber optic network provider OnNet, an enterprise valued between 1.5 billion and 2 billion dollars, with a target conclusion by 2027.
