**IHS Towers Agrees to Sell its 51.0% Stake in I-Systems to TIM S.A.**

**February 11, 2026, London/São Paulo:** IHS Fiber Brasil – Cessão de Infraestruturas Ltda, part of IHS Holding Limited (NYSE: IHS) ("IHS Towers" or the "Company"), one of the largest independent owners, operators and developers of shared communications infrastructure in the world by tower count, has agreed to sell its 51% stake in I-Systems Soluções de Infraestrutura S.A. ("I-Systems") (the "I-Systems transaction"), a specialist provider of shared optical fiber networks in Brazil, to TIM. S.A. ("TIM"), the owner of the remaining 49% of I-Systems.

The I-Systems network covers approximately 9.3 million homes passed (of which approximately 6.4 are Fiber-to-the-Home) and spans approximately 22,250 route kilometers.<sup>1</sup> This will result in IHS Towers' exit from the Brazilian fiber sector.

The I-Systems transaction, reflecting an enterprise value<sup>2</sup> of $452.6 million, is aligned with the Company's previously announced strategic initiatives, helping to focus the growth of the Company in lower capex, higher return businesses. This transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals, and is expected to close later in 2026.

J.P. Morgan is acting as financial advisor to IHS Towers.

**Sam Darwish, Chairman & CEO, IHS Towers**, commented, *"Today's announcement to sell I-Systems to TIM forms part of our strategic initiatives targeted at shareholder value creation, designed to help focus our growth on lower capex, higher return businesses. We extend our sincere appreciation to our colleagues, customers, and partners whose commitment has enabled the successful development of our fiber business in Brazil."*

**Alberto Griselli, CEO, TIM Brasil**, commented, "*This transaction marks another strategic move by TIM to strengthen its presence in the broadband market, a defining front for the company in 2025. By improving end-to-end connectivity quality, TIM aims to enhance customer experience, boost operational efficiency, and reinforce its position for upcoming FTTH opportunities, while maintaining a strong focus on profitability and cash generation."*
