Orange said Wednesday that it would file a buy-out offer for the remaining shares of consultancy Business & Decision SA through its subsidiary Orange Business Services SA.

The subsidiary of the French telecommunications company currently holds 93.62% of Business & Decision's share capital and 93.42% of voting rights.

Orange said it would file the offer at a price of 7.93 euros ($8.65) per share to the French financial regulator AMF, followed by a mandatory squeeze-out--a mechanism triggered by a majority shareholder urging minority shareholders to sell their stakes in a company--by the end of February.
