News Summary:

WOM Chile obtained US$450 million in financing on September 17, 2026, featuring a 4.7% coupon and a seven-year maturity. This capital is earmarked to support bids for local telecommunications contracts as Chile progresses with Latin America's first 5G test zone, with WOM being one of five local groups qualified for several 5G contracts auctioned by regulator Subtel. Concurrently, the mobile operator, controlled by UK fund Novator Partners, announced a plan to invest US$500 million in its Chilean operations over the next three years, including US$150 million already disbursed in the country’s recent spectrum tenders. Previously, on September 16, WOM paid CLP 12.9 billion (around US$13.9 million) in bond guarantees for breaches in the rollout of the National Fibre Optic (FON) network backbone project. This payment followed an August 4 order from telecommunications regulator Subtel, which had detected "serious, persistent, and widespread" breaches of performance levels across five network macro-zones, specifically Arica, Parinacota North, North-Central, Central, and South-Central.
