Since December 2016, Starman Estonia is wholly owned by Elisa.[1][2] Starman was the largest cable television company in Estonia[3] and in the Baltic countries.[4] HistoryStarman was founded in 1992 by Peeter Kern and Indrek Kuivallik.[5] Peeter Kern served as the company's CEO until his unexpected death in 2014.[6][7] In 2013, the Swedish investment company East Capital Explorer bought 51% of Starman's shares from the company's founders.[8] In 2015 Starman bought the Lithuanian telecommunications company Cgates, with funds from the majority shareholder East Capital Explorer,[9] but the Lithuanian branch was again separated in a later acquisition. In March 2016, East Capital Explorer intended to sell its 63% share to American investment firm Providence Equity Partners for €81 million,[10] but Starman's minority shareholder Polaris Invest (owned by founder Indrek Kuivallik) used their pre-emptive rights to make the purchase instead.[1][11][12] In December 2016, Starman Estonia was wholly acquired by Finnish telecommunications company Elisa for €151 million; this deal did not include the Lithuanian branch.[1][2][13] References1. ^1 2 {{Cite web|url=http://www.digitaltveurope.net/641131/finlands-elisa-acquires-estonias-starman/|title=Finland's Elisa acquires Estonia's Starman|date=14 December 2016|website=Digital TV Europe|language=en-US}} 2. ^1 {{Cite news|url=http://news.err.ee/120041/finnish-telecom-elisa-buys-full-holding-in-starman-estonia|title=Finnish telecom Elisa buys full holding in Starman Estonia|date=13 December 2016|work=ERR|language=en}} 3. ^[https://www.cnbc.com/2014/07/10/cnbc-launches-on-starman-in-estonia.html "CNBC launches on Starman in Estonia"], CNBC, July 10, 2014. 4. ^[https://web.archive.org/web/20161008194907/https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-457005978.html "Starman and Nokia to Deploy First Nationwide 10-Gigabit Residential Network in Europe"], Fiber Optics Weekly Update, June 10, 2016 {{subscription required|via=HighBeam Research}}. 5. ^{{Cite news|url=http://www.aripaev.ee/uudised/2016/05/10/starmani-asutaja-ostis-senise-suurosaniku-valja|title=Starmani asutaja ostab senise suurosaniku välja|date=10 May 2016|work=Äripäev|language=et-EE}} 6. ^{{Cite news|url=http://www.aripaev.ee/uudised/2014/03/11/lahkus-starmani-asutaja-peeter-kern|title=Ootamatult lahkus Starmani asutaja Peeter Kern|date=11 March 2014|work=Äripäev|language=et-EE}} 7. ^{{Cite news|url=http://pluss.postimees.ee/2724852/suri-starmani-asutaja-ja-juht-peeter-kern|title=Suri Starmani asutaja ja juht Peeter Kern|last=Inselberg|first=Kadri|date=12 March 2014|work=Postimees|language=et}} 8. ^{{Cite news|url=http://news.postimees.ee/1223352/east-capital-explorer-buys-majority-stake-in-starman|title=East Capital Explorer buys majority stake in Starman|date=3 May 2013|work=Postimees|language=en}} 9. ^[https://web.archive.org/web/20161008194813/https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-394354500.html "East Capital Unveils Acquisition of Cgates in Lithuania"], SeeNews Nordic, December 22, 2014. 10. ^"Swedes sell Starman to Americans", Postimees, March 15, 2016. 11. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.broadbandtvnews.com/2016/12/14/finlands-elisa-buy-starman/|title=Finland’s Elisa to buy Starman|last=Dziadul|first=Chris|date=14 December 2016|website=Broadband TV News}} 12. ^{{Cite news|url=http://majandus24.postimees.ee/3849951/kuivalliku-polaris-sai-oiguse-osta-starman|title=Kuivalliku Polaris sai õiguse osta Starman|work=Postimees|language=et}} 13. ^{{Cite news|url=http://majandus24.postimees.ee/3944705/elisa-ostab-kuivallikult-starmani|title=Elisa ostab Kuivallikult Starmani|last=Reisenbuk|first=Karel|date=12 December 2016|work=Postimees|language=et}} External links
