BELGIUM Software / Industry-Specific Software EV 100M - 350M EUR

Context

Proximus Group entered into a binding agreement to sell its 92.7% stake in Be-Mobile to Arrive for an enterprise value of EUR170 million. The transaction allows Proximus to complete its EUR500 million divestment program two years ahead of the original 2027 schedule, leading the group to raise its total asset disposal target to EUR600 million. For Arrive, the acquisition significantly strengthens its footprint in the Benelux region and expands its service portfolio through Be-Mobile's specialized big data and AI capabilities. The deal remains subject to approval by the Belgian Interfederal Screening Committee (CFI) for foreign direct investments.

BE-MOBILE, which reported an EBITDA margin of LOGIN in 2024, is valued in this transaction at an EV/EBITDA multiple of LOGIN, a level to compare with the average currently observed in the TMT (Tech, Media, Telecom) sector (14.8x).
