Liberty Global A ( (LBTYA) ) has provided an announcement.

On December 17, 2025, Liberty Global agreed to sell its UPC Slovakia unit to O2 Slovakia, an affiliate of e&PPF Telecom, for a total transaction value of about €95 million ($110 million), valuing the business at roughly 7 times its estimated 2025 Adjusted EBITDA and about 15 times its estimated 2025 Adjusted EBITDA less P&E additions. UPC Slovakia is one of the largest providers of TV, broadband and telephony services in the Slovak Republic, serving more than 600,000 households in 80 cities with internet speeds of up to 2.5 Gbps, and the divestment, which is still subject to regulatory approval and customary closing conditions, marks a strategic reshaping of Liberty Global’s Central European footprint as it focuses its converged connectivity and investment platforms on markets and assets where it sees the greatest scope for long-term value creation.

The most recent analyst rating on (LBTYA) stock is a Hold with a $11.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Liberty Global A stock, see the LBTYA Stock Forecast page.
