Etisalat sold its 28 percent stake in satellite operator Thuraya to YahSat for $37,000,000.
YahSat operates a fleet of three satellites that provide television broadcast and data connectivity services in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Brazil.
Etisalat sold its Thuraya shares to a YahSat company called Star Satellite Communications Company following completion of regulatory approvals and YahSat’s condition of acquiring at least 75.001% of Thuraya.
Eutelsat will launch its African broadband service using 10 Gbps of capacity on Yahsat’s Al Yah 3 satellite.
Al Yah 3 arrived at its orbital slot slightly earlier than YahSat had predicted after its January Ariane 5 launch sent the satellite into an off-nominal geostationary transfer orbit.
Yahsat is acquiring a majority stake in Thuraya for an undisclosed amount on 2018-04-26.
Yahsat operates three satellites—Al Yah 1, Al Yah 2, and Al Yah 3—that deliver television broadcasts and broadband connectivity for VSAT networks, mobile networks, and other customers.
Yahsat’s satellites, including Al Yah 3, provide coverage for Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Brazil.
