Bharti Airtel Share Price Update | Teleco Plans Uganda’s Biggest IPO: Bloomberg

Airtel Uganda Ltd. plans to raise as much as 800 billion shillings ($216 million) in an initial public offering, making it the nation’s biggest share sale, Bloomberg reported.

The company priced its IPO at 100 shillings apiece valuing the nation’s second-biggest telecommunications carrier at 4 trillion shillings. The unit of billionaire Sunil Mittal’s Airtel Africa Plc is selling a 20 percent stake, or 8 billion shares, on the Uganda Securities Exchange to fulfill a regulatory requirement.

The offer opens on Wednesday and closes on October 13, according to a prospectus released in the capital, Kampala, on Tuesday. The company will start trading on the exchange on October 31.

Uganda has asked telecommunications companies to sell at least 20 percent on its bourse to increase local shareholding and deepen its capital markets. If Airtel Uganda reaches its IPO target, it will become Uganda’s biggest company by market value, Bloomberg's report stated.
