Japanese operator, SoftBank, are set to acquire a 70% stake in Sprint, the third largest US mobile operator. Chris Nicoll and Steve Hilton, Principal Analysts at Analysys Mason, attended Sprint's media and analyst relations announcement earlier today.
Some initial comments from Chris and Steve:
- We are cautiously positive on the investment in Sprint by Softbank. Foreign investment in US Telecoms has had a decidedly neutral result to date and while the financial investment in Sprint is significant, Sprint has significant technical and market challenges to overcome in the next 12-24 months while Softbank added a huge international acquisition to jek ixgxxiwap.
