Poste Italiane stock (ISIN IT0003796171) traded at EUR 26.76 on September 16, 2026, up 2.22 percent, while the company's TIM stake reached 66.6 percent. The move came as the market digested the latest step in Poste's takeover push for Telecom Italia.
TIM stake moves higher
According to The Globe and Mail on September 16, 2026, TIM disclosed an insider share sale during Poste Italiane's tender offer, and the report said the most recent analyst rating on TIM was Buy with a EUR 6.40 price target. Ground News also reported on September 17, 2026, that Poste had reached 66.6 percent of TIM and reopened the offer until September 25, 2026.
That makes control the key number for investors. Poste's own strategy now matters less as a standalone postal story and more as a balance-sheet and integration question tied to TIM.
