Bouygues Telecom, Free–Groupe iliad, and Orange have made a non-binding joint offer to acquire most of Altice's French telecoms operations, centered on SFR.
The proposal excludes stakes in Intelcia, UltraEdge, XP Fibre, and Altice Technical Services, as well as Altice activities in France's overseas departments and territories.
Under the plan, SFR's B2B activities would be taken over mainly by Bouygues Telecom and Free–Groupe iliad, while B2C would be divided among all three groups.
Infrastructure and spectrum would also be apportioned among the bidders, with SFR's mobile network in non-dense areas earmarked for Bouygues Telecom.
