The deal is better now...
Just remember, they sold BT for 7.15 billions euro
The exchange rate in feb 2020 was 1.09 usd=1 euro. Actually it is 1.23usd=1 euro (up about 10-12%)
Bbd debts is in USD, so the deal now worth 8.8 billions USD. In Feb, it was 7.8 billions USD.
So they lower the deal by 500millions USD but we had an appreciation by the money valuation by about 1billion.
The debts could be lower after the deal than expected... GLTA

As per note 3 of the Alstom news release announcing the SPA, the parties have agreed to use an exchange rate of approximately 1:1.17. Therefore, I do not believe BBD benefits from any further strengthening of the Euro relative to USD. Alstom SPA news release Jim
