Kyivstar Signs Deal to Buy GigaCloud, Bolting On Enterprise Cloud
KYIV sits 42% above its 52-week low of $9.29.
Summary
Kyivstar signed an agreement to acquire GigaCloud for up to $50M, adding enterprise cloud capabilities to its telecom and digital portfolio. The move extends the digital push that drove Q2 results, when digital revenue jumped 83% to $74M and management raised full-year 2026 revenue growth guidance to 14%-16%. Watch for any equity or debt funding tied to the purchase, which matters given the existing resale shelf covering roughly 196 million VEON-held shares.
