America Movil has announced the results of its two public share offers for sister companies Telmex Internacional and Telmex, paying out approximately USD 2.12 billion to obtain 93.6% of shares held by Telint shareholders and 99.4% of those in Carso Global Telecom, which controls 60.7% of Telint and 59.4% of Telmex.
America Movil was looking to gain a high enough percentage to remove the two fixed-line players from public trading in this move, but the result for Telint has fallen short of the 95% necessary for delisting.
Telmex is expected to begin the delisting process shortly in advance of anticipated synergies.
America Movil issued a further 7.09 billion shares in the deal, exchanging them for 3.46 billion shares in Carso Global Telecom.
