(Telecompaper) Malta operator Go has selected Tunisie Telecom as the preferred bidder to take over the company. Batelco was the other known company that offered to buy Go. Go said in a statement that the Tunisian operator offered EUR 2.87 per share for the company. This is slightly above the company's recent trading range but below a high of EUR 3.60 per share in the past year. Go's largest shareholder is Dubai-based Emirates International Telecommunications, with a 60 percent stake. EIT is also a shareholder in Tunisie Telecom. The latter confirmed its offer for Go and said it expects significant synergies from combining with the Maltese operator.
