By integrating their operations, Liberty Global and Telenet can streamline processes, optimize resources, and deliver a seamless customer experience.

Reopening of Offer

In light of the successful acquisition of 93.23% of Telenet Group Holding NV, Liberty Global has announced its decision to reopen its offer on 24 August 2023. This gives remaining Telenet shareholders another opportunity to tender their shares and become part of the Liberty Global family.

The reopening of the offer reflects Liberty Global’s commitment to achieving full ownership of Telenet. By acquiring the remaining shares, Liberty Global aims to consolidate its position in the Belgian market and fully integrate Telenet into its operations.

The acquisition of 93.23% of Telenet Group Holding NV by Liberty Global represents a significant step in the company’s expansion plans in Europe. The enhanced market presence, strategic synergies, and reopening of the offer demonstrate Liberty Global’s determination to leverage Telenet’s strengths and drive growth in the Belgian telecommunications market.
