Kazakstanin johtava mobiiliviestintäpalvelujen tarjoaja Kcell ilmoitti tänään listautumisantinsa hintavälin.

Hintaväliksi on määritetty 10,50–13,00 dollaria talletustodistusta (GDR) kohti. Hinnat julkaistaan ja kaupankäynti aloitetaan arviolta 12.12.

Kcellin markkina-arvo on hintavälin perusteella noin 2,1–2,6 miljardia dollaria.

“Olemme erittäin tyytyväisiä, että olemme päässeet näin pitkälle tässä prosessissa. Kcell on tärkeä osa maailmanlaajuisia toimintojamme ja yksi TeliaSoneran menestyksekkäimmistä tytäryhtiöistä. Kcellin listautuminen tuo lisäarvoa osakkeenomistajillemme likviditeetin ja näkyvyyden lisääntymisen sekä pitkän aikavälin strategisen määräysaseman säilyttämisen kautta", toimitusjohtaja Lars Nyberg kertoo.

Annissa TeliaSonera myy 50 miljoonaa osaketta talletustodistukset mukaan luettuina, mikä vastaa 25 prosenttia Kcellin osakepääomasta.

TeliaSoneran efektiivinen taloudellinen omistusosuus Kcellistä on tällä hetkellä 86,9 prosenttia, ja onnistuneen listautumisannin jälkeen se olisi arviolta 61,9 prosenttia.

Koko tiedote on Kcellin lehdistöpalvelussa.
