From 2015, Cellnex Netherlands is the combination of the acquisition of 6 well-established companies with a long history in the Netherlands.

2021:

Deutsche Telekom AG (Deutsche Telekom) and Cellnex Telecom S.A. (Cellnex) signed an agreement under which they combined, into Cellnex Netherlands BV, their respective activities in mobile communications infrastructure in the Netherlands.

Furthermore, in 2021 Cellnex Netherlands reaches an agreement with Red Bee to take over their Media-Gateway datacenter. Increasing its datacenter presence in the Netherlands to 25 locations.

International expansion in the year of communications for Cellnex

In a year when telecommunications services come to the fore due to COVID-19 restrictions, the company continues to diversify internationally with expansion operations in five new markets, increasing from seven to twelve.

Investors back the strategy with a €4 billion rights issue for which demand was 46 times higher than supply.

 

The Board approves “Cellnex’s COVID-19 Relief Initiative”, a €10 million international aid fund for the pandemic.

After closing its 2016-2020 CSR Master Plan cycle with over 90 percent of the strategic goals achieved, the company launches its 2021-2025 Sustainability Master Plan focusing on ESG (Environment, Social & Governance) criteria.

A leap in terms of quality and quantity

Inorganic operations deliver growth with entry into new markets, such as the acquisition Cellnex Netherlands finalizes of FM and DAB broadcasting services for both NL and BE.

 

Investors give their support to the project by subscribing to two rights issues of 3.7 billion that mobilise over €7 billion in investment commitments. The company surpasses €1 billion in revenue.

5G ecosystem rollout

In a year when the shareholding pattern is restructured following divestment by Abertis and the entry of ConnecT as a reference shareholder with 29.9% of the capital, the group positions itself to roll out the 5G ecosystem with the purchase of the Catalan fibre-optic network operator XOC and a comprehensive agreement with Bouygues Telecom in France for the acquisition and deployment of edge computing centres.

Consolidation, innovation and growth

With a committed investment of €1.2 billion, 2017 is a year marked by diversification of the business into lines of activity and markets, with greater weight given to infrastructure services, comprising 60% of revenue, and an expansion of the customer base and sites.

The company positions itself for the launch of 5G with the purchase of ALTICOM in the Netherlands and the purchase of the private portfolio of K2W increasing the telecom & data tower portfolio with 32 towers.

Aligning expectations and results

The diversification of territories and customers continues with the company entering: the Netherlands (following the purchase of Protelindo and Shere Group’s telecommunications sites); France (with the first major agreement with Bouygues Telecom) and the United Kingdom (acquisition of Shere Group).

 

Results exceed targets thanks to solid organic growth and an improvement in the risk profile. The company enters the IBEX 35 stock market index.

 

Launch of a transformative project: Cellnex Telecom is born

Abertis Telecom buys 7 377 mobile towers and sites in Italy and becomes Europe’s leading independent telecommunications infrastructure operator shortly before it goes public on 7 May under the name Cellnex Telecom (CLNX) with the slogan “driving telecom connectivity”.

The market values the company at €3.243 billion. Five months after its debut, it enters the STOXX Europe index which represents the 600 largest companies in Europe.
