Summary
The European Commission has registered foreign subsidies case FS.100292 concerning Orange/Masorange under Regulation 2022/2560. The case involves a concentration in wired, wireless, and satellite telecommunication activities (NACE Rev. 2.1 codes K.61.1 and K.61.10). The notification was filed on 7 April 2026 with a provisional decision deadline of 13 May 2026. No decision has been issued as the case remains pending.
Companies involved in concentrations within the EU should assess whether their transactions fall within the scope of Regulation 2022/2560 on foreign subsidies. This case page — while no decision exists — confirms the EC is actively processing foreign subsidies notifications in the telecommunications sector. Counsel should review transaction structures for foreign state involvement, financial contributions from non-EU authorities, or subsidy-like advantages that could trigger notification obligations regardless of merger control thresholds.
