Liberty Latin America has entered a 10-year strategic engagement with Amdocs to manage its end-to-end IT ecosystem across its regional footprint. The agreement will shift Liberty Latin America's traditional IT operations to an AI-driven model using Amdocs' Agentic Operating System, aOS, aiming to accelerate time to market, boost product innovation, enhance customer and employee experience, and deliver significant cost savings. Amdocs is collaborating with Prodapt, an existing Liberty Latin America partner, to support service continuity and operational transformation. Liberty Latin America's Chief Technology and Product Officer Aamir Hussain said the deal lets the company access world-class expertise without building every capability in-house, while CFO Chris Noyes noted it strengthens financial performance and provides greater cost predictability tied to business outcomes. The transition is expected to take place over the coming months with a focus on seamless service continuity.

Liberty Latin America and its partners in Peru have entered into an agreement to sell their respective stakes in WOW Tel S.A.C. to America Movil Peru S.A.C, a subsidiary of America Movil. WOW operates primarily as a fixed broadband internet service provider in Peru, and Liberty Latin America acquired a minority stake in the business in 2021 with additional investments made since then. The transaction is subject to regulatory approval by Peru's National Institute for the Defense of Competition and Protection of Intellectual Property, known as INDECOPI. The agreement reflects Liberty Latin America's continued focus on rationalizing its operating portfolio and optimizing capital allocation.
