Telenor Fiber will own 130,000 km of cables connecting more than 560,000 homes in Norway. The agreed sale price is NOK36.1 billion (US$3.3 billion) and Telenor's revenue is approximately NOK10.8 billion (US$1 billion). Telenor's EBITDA was NOK1.7 billion (US$157 million) in 2021. After the transaction, all operational processes will remain under the full control of Telenor, with Telenor Norge as the sole customer.

The firm's fixed-line operations are in Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark. In the rest of its markets, Telenor offers only mobile services.
