MEXICO CITY and EL PASO, Texas, Sept. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Transtelco Holding, Inc. (doing business as Flō Networks, or "Flō"), a U.S.-based, independent digital infrastructure provider operating its own fiber-optic network across Mexico, the Southwestern United States and Latin America, today announced its intention to launch concurrent public tender offers (ofertas públicas de adquisición, or the "Offers") to acquire up to 100% of the outstanding shares of Controladora Axtel, S.A.B. de C.V.
