Telecom Italia Prepares to Scrap Inwit Renewal at Sunday Meeting

Telecom Italia is preparing to scrap the renewal of a mobile-phone tower agreement with Inwit that would have extended the contract through 2038. The decision removes long-term revenue visibility for Inwit and could pressure its valuation and shares while giving Telecom Italia greater strategic and financial flexibility. Expect company-specific stock moves for both names once the decision is confirmed and details on next steps (renegotiation, asset sale or shorter-term contracts) emerge.
