Clarification of News Report

We write in reply to the Exchange’s request for confirmation on the news article entitled “MVP Group bidding for SkyCable” posted in philSTAR.com on September 14, 2020. The article reported in part that:

“MANILA, Philippines — The MVP Group’s telco giant Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co. (PLDT) is vying for Lopez-owned SkyCable and is hoping to close the deal after the ghost month of the Chinese Lunar calendar, industry sources told The STAR.

The prized cable provider of the beleaguered Lopez Group is estimated at P15 billion to P18 billion, but the MVP Group is ready to make an aggressive offer to make sure that it bags the deal, sources said.

. . . .”

We cannot confirm the veracity of the matters in the article. SkyCable has not solicited this bid to sell the company, nor has ABS-CBN Corporation made any decision with regard to a divestment of SkyCable.
