2016

In 2016, the company set up EIT Radio S.r.l., with the aim of consolidating the fragmented radio transmission tower market. One of the main operations was the acquisition of Società Bresciana Telecomunicazione S.r.l., with about 100 radio transmission sites operating in the north of Italy.
The company also continued to grow in the telco infrastructure sector, with the acquisition of sites both in Sardinia and in central and northern Italy (SA OGHE TC S.r.l., Giardino De Sanctis S.r.l., SAGA S.r.l., VIP Electronics S.r.l., FP Tower S.r.l.) generating total EBITDA of about 1,5 million.
In 2015/2016, EI Towers S.p.A. put a lot of effort into the implementation of its growth by acquisition plan, with the aim of diversifying the business mix in view of expected market consolidation in the area of mobile telephony infrastructure. The Group played an active role in the competitive sale of Italy’s main assets (Galata, Inwit), adopting a rigorous approach to their valuation with the aim of satisfying both the strategic requirement for diversification and the need to generate returns for shareholders.
