Tele Columbus, also known as PYUR, is a privately owned company headquartered in Germany. Founded in 1985, it employs approximately 380 individuals and is recognized as a tier 1 media tech buyer. The company specializes in telecommunications, offering services such as telephone, internet, and TV.
On September 4, 2026, German cable operator Tele Columbus reported modest growth from its core operations for the first half of the year, with reported EBITDA increasing following the sale of its stake in the Magdeburg city network MDCC. Previously, on September 3, 2026, the company announced a continued loss of TV customers in the first half of the year, though the pace of decline slowed in the second quarter, attributing this to structural market changes and a portfolio divestment. Earlier on September 3, Tele Columbus released its Q2 and H1 2026 results, showing Q2 revenue slipping 0.9% to EUR 209 million due to asset sales, while organic internet and telephony revenue rose 5.4% and normalized EBITDA increased nearly 2% year-over-year. The company noted a 4.5% operational growth in Q2 and progress in fiber, with its FTTH subscriber base reaching 108,000 RGUs, a 19% year-over-year increase. Fiber penetration in the FTTH footprint reached 44%, exceeding the 30% rate in the legacy HFC coax network. Tele Columbus anticipates continued support from its internet and telephony business through high-speed products and premium bundles, expecting full-year 2026 network infrastructure CapEx of about EUR 27 million. Initial limited sales for its 1&1 FTTH wholesale deal are targeted for Q4 2026, with a fuller launch planned for Q1 2027.
