Numericable
Numericable is a cable operator and telecommunications services company. Numericable was originally created in 2007 from the merger between former competitors Noos and NC Numericable networks. Numericable Group SA was founded in August 2013 to act as the parent company of Numericable group companies and to offer its shares on the stock exchange. The company provides cable broadband services in France, Luxembourg and Portugal, offering digital and analog television, Internet, and phone services to homes. Since 2008, Numericable also offers mobile telephone services to its customers.
It is the leading cable television provider and internet access provider in metropolitan France. Since 2012, Numericable holds the largest high-speed broadband network in France, including a small portion using optical fiber or FTTX.
On September 19, 2013, following failed talks with the French telecommunications company SFR, the company announced it had taken the first steps towards an Initial Public Offering on the NYSE Euronext market in Paris.
