Although, there are a number of valuations on the standalone operations of both companies, they lack to value a potential merger between them, and consequently the synergies found in such transaction. During the dissertation, KPN is valued in 27 billion € and Telekom Austria is valued in 7 billion €, whereas the new firm will be valued in 40 billion €, implying synergies worth around 6 billion €. Furthermore, knowing that shareholders always thrive for higher gains, such transaction would allow for that to happen, with América Móvil, the main shareholder in both companies, pushing for the merger to take place.engmaster thesis201088118
