電訊盈科(00008.HK)擬2.5億美元將電訊盈科媒體全部股權轉讓予香港電訊
格隆匯 08-06 17:42

格隆匯8月6日丨電訊盈科(00008.HK)公佈,鑑於行業和科技態勢迅速發展、消費者行為不斷變化及對數碼娛樂的需求快速增長,公司對其媒體業務進行了策略評估。受惠於行業趨勢及利好因素以加強和儘量提升媒體業務的前景,公司宣佈其媒體業務的策略措施,其中涉及建議將電訊盈科媒體轉讓予香港電訊;及有關PCCW OTT的策略選擇方案檢討。這兩項措施能確保集團在業務重心及資源策略方面保持一致。

為了加強及儘量提升集團的Now TV業務的前景,於2020年8月6日,公司的間接全資附屬公司PCCW Interactive Media與香港電訊的間接全資附屬公司HKT Interactive Media訂立股份買賣協議,內容有關PCCW Interactive Media以2.5億美元的代價將電訊盈科媒體的全部已發行股本出售予HKT Interactive Media。

電訊盈科媒體集團營運NowTV業務,Now TV是香港領先的收費電視服務供應商,以電視頻道、自選點播及應用程式提供廣泛的本地及國際節目內容。

此外,PCCW OTT在香港、東南亞及中東地區經營泛區域OTT(over-the-top)視象娛樂及音樂平台,包括Viu和Moov品牌。公司將繼續積極評估各種策略選項,以支持PCCW OTT的持續增長,包括但不限於尋求通過PCCW OTT的潛在獨立上市及∕或通過策略夥伴對PCCW OTT作出額外投資,進一步向PCCW OTT引入第三方融資。公司將於適當時候就有關PCCW OTT的策略作出進一步公告。

建議交易完成後,由於公司為香港電訊的控股股東,故電訊盈科媒體仍為公司的間接附屬公司。建議交易的所得款項將由集團用作一般企業及營運資金用途,包括償還電訊盈科層面的債務。
