The CMA CGM group announced on Friday the signing of a purchase promise with the Altice France group with a view to acquiring the entire capital of Altice Media.
This acquisition will be carried out jointly by CMA CGM and Merit France, at 80% and 20% respectively, on the basis of an enterprise value of 1.55 billion euros, indicates the group in a press release.
CMA CGM, which already owns the newspaper La Tribune, thus places the continuous news channel BFMTV in its possession.
