It is true that the company will pay most of the acquisition (R $ 7.8 billion, or about 45% of the total), but the reward depends on it. “TIM will be the company most benefited by the consolidation of the mobile telephony market, due to the relevance of the cellular business in its consolidated results”, affirms the Safra Bank, in a report signed by Luis Azevedo and Silvio Dória.
