Millicom (Buy, TP: $30, +17%) Multiple M&A’s: Millicom (BUY) in Colombia/Costa Rica – synergies >$1 billion / Q2 24 highlights

A series of transactions, involving four separate parties, have been proposed by Millicom (and with a MOU with Telefonica) which could take the patchy Colombian telco market to an effective duopoly, with Millicom as a strong no2. The deal could yet stumble (multiple parties, involves a formal privatization, regulation), will take a little while to consummate, leaves question marks over WOM (which filed for protection locally in April), but we think can comfortably create over $1 billion of synergies, and create >$4 per share of value (TIGO US).
