Patrick Drahi takes his debt reduction business one step further. Faced with the specter of some 60 billion in debt, the billionaire at the head of the Altice empire is now activating all options to get out of the trap. Still ruled out at the beginning of August, a possible opening of SFR’s capital is now on the table, a sign of a real turnaround.
Already mentioned the day before during a meeting in London with investors, the hypothesis was confirmed by the CEO of Altice France, Arthur Dreyfuss, during a meeting with elected staff representatives on Thursday morning. Reflection on capital partnerships or debt assumption concerns “all geographies and all activities”, it was said more clearly than during the group’s last conference with investors, at the beginning of August. According to “Le Monde”, the banks Lazard and BNP were specifically responsible for the file concerning the French number two in the telecoms market.
