Telefónica Agrees To Sell 11 Data Centre Facilities To Asterion For $615.7m

Telefónica has signed an agreement for the sale of 11 data centres to Asterion Industrial Partners, the Pan-European infrastructure fund manager, for a total amount of $615.7m (€550m).
The transaction is expected to generate capital gains before taxes and controlling interests of around €260m, according to the company.
The sale includes the signing of a housing services agreement, and Telefónica will continue to provide and manage the services it has been offering to its customers from these data centre facilities – maintaining the direct relationship with them.
This agreement will allow Asterion to leverage the sales network of the Telefónica Group’s operations to market the remaining capacity of the data centre facilities.
The transaction perimeter covers 11 data centres with an installed service capacity of 29 MW located in seven countries: two in Argentina, two in Brazil, one in Chile, two in Spain, one in Mexico, two in Peru, and on in the United States.
“Telefónica maintains its commercial positioning, the relationship with its customers and its leadership in offering connectivity services and cloud capabilities for the corporate segment,” said the company.
“Telefonica will continue to offer its portfolio of services from a network of 23 data centres, including the 11 of the sale.”
The company also revealed that the perimeter of the operation does not include the sale of servers owned by Telefónica, or the management and access to customers hosted on them.
The closing of the transaction will take place in a period of approximately two months, except for four data centres, where the effective transfer is subject to several authorisations and administrative procedures.
The agreement announced by Telefónica complements the objective of organic debt reduction and strengthening the balance sheet in a growing cash flow scenario.

5 reasons, as long as you are a skilled penetration tester (and a nice person) this may be different enough for you. Healthy package for the right talents- before you ask up to 95k+ (depending on skillset). Yes permanent only. Remotely based with the occasional time to meet up- unless you enjoy retiring from society. BUT UK based but not UK client focused. Research and training time- A dedicated trainer with budget for you to sharpen / develop skills. You can make your stamp. It’s a new role for someone technical to deliver, lead and shape a testing capability. No political shenanigans etc Exclusive to DCL Search and not one of the usual names. So you can dramatically increase your chances of securing it. Infrastructure pen testing and Web app / Manual penetration testing experience highly valued. Someone that can scope, deliver pen testing, report and not be useless in front of clients. Apply today to find out more. Or email Chris.Holt@dclsearch.com Or call 07884666351 This is a UK based role.
