由印度亿万富翁苏尼尔·巴蒂·米塔尔控制的支付公司Airtel Money宣布将在伦敦证券交易所上市1。该公司目标融资约8亿美元，估值区间为80亿至90亿美元1，这将成为伦敦近年来规模最大的首次公开募股之一1。
Airtel Money在撒哈拉以南非洲13个国家拥有5300万月活用户1，上一财年收入不足14亿美元1。最近一个季度（截至6月30日）实现收入3.99亿英镑，同比增长38%1。该公司的主要投资方包括TPG、万事达卡、卡塔尔投资局和Chimetech Holding1，Airtel Africa持股比例不足78%1。
上市计划原定于2026年上半年进行，但因市场不利条件已推迟至下半年1。公司预计将于10月初公布更多细节，10月底进行最终定价1。CEO伊恩·费拉奥表示，选择伦敦上市的关键原因在于"伦敦市场对新兴市场和非洲拥有深刻的理解"1。
Airtel Money, the payments platform controlled by Indian billionaire Sunil Bharti Mittal, has announced plans to list on the London Stock Exchange in what would represent one of the largest flotations in the British capital in recent years.1 The company aims to raise approximately $800 million at a valuation of $8 billion to $9 billion.1
The payments firm operates across 13 sub-Saharan African countries and serves 5.3 million monthly active users.1 In its most recent fiscal year, Airtel Money generated revenues approaching $1.4 billion.1 For the quarter ending June 30, the company reported revenues of £399 million, representing a 38 percent year-on-year increase.1 Airtel Africa holds a stake of less than 78 percent in the platform, while other key investors include TPG, Mastercard, Qatar Investment Authority, and Chimetech Holding.1
CEO Ian Ferrao emphasized the strategic importance of the listing venue, stating that "what matters most is London's deep understanding of emerging markets and Africa."1 The company originally targeted a listing in the first half of 2026 but postponed it to the second half due to unfavorable market conditions.1 Airtel Money expects to provide additional details in early October, with final pricing anticipated by the end of the month.1
