Given that AKTA had around 80,000 clients on the satellite TV segment, the deal was signed at a price of around EUR140 per subscriber.
Romtelecom in February clinched another deal, taking over satellite TV operator Boom TV for another EUR5.9 million. Romtelecom has not entirely paid the above mentioned sums, but only made a first payment of EUR7.2 million for the two acquisitions by June.
NextGen, the cable unit of Romtelecom, inked several acquisitions in the first half of the year, totally worth EUR22.8 million, in line with the OTE report, which does not include further details.
The first-half acquisitions propelled Romtelecom onto the second position on the TV services market, ahead of UPC.
