Phoenix and More to Gain Full Control of Unlimited Fiber Project

Translated & summarized from Calcalist by baba
The story · English

Following previous sales by TASE, Cellcom, and HOT, the Israel Electric Corporation (IEC) is now selling its stake in the Unlimited (IBC) fiber optic project to a group of investors led by Phoenix and More Investment House. This acquisition will grant Phoenix and More full control of the venture.

According to IEC, it will sell its 30% share in Unlimited to More, Phoenix, Noy Fund, private investors, and Gil Sharon for NIS 250 million. Additionally, Unlimited will pay IEC an existing debt of NIS 115 million. A non-binding memorandum of understanding has been signed, with the parties aiming to finalize a binding agreement within the next two months.

In May 2025, Phoenix and More, along with other investors, purchased 46% of Unlimited's shares for NIS 1.04 billion from HOT and TASE. Cellcom, which initially held 23% of the project, later joined the sale, divesting its stake for NIS 520 million.

Unlimited has connected 2.6 million households to its fiber optic infrastructure and is a competitor to Bezeq, the country's largest telecommunications company.
