Jul 22, 2021

London, UK: STL [NSE: STLTECH], an industry leading integrator of digital networks, today announced the acquisition of Clearcomm Group Ltd, a UK based network integration company.

As network creators across the world deploy large scale networks for 5G, FTTx and Rural use cases, STL has been enhancing its end-to-end network and system integration solutions across the globe.

Tranche 1 entails acquisition of 80% of the share capital which will happen immediately (subject to customary pre-closing conditions), and is based on an Enterprise Value of GBP 15.5 million. The balance 20% shareholding will be acquired in 2023.
