Liberty Global PLC's stock surged 5.70% during intraday trading on Wednesday following the announcement of two significant acquisition deals that expand the company's telecommunications footprint in Europe.

The company announced that its joint venture with Telefonica and InfraVia, nexfibre, has agreed to acquire Substantial Group for approximately $2.72 billion. This strategic acquisition is expected to strengthen Liberty Global's position in the telecommunications infrastructure market.

In a separate but concurrent announcement, Liberty Global revealed it will acquire Vodafone's 50% stake in their Dutch joint venture, VodafoneZiggo. The deal involves a cash payment of €1 billion to Vodafone and grants the latter a 10% stake in a new Benelux company called Ziggo Group, which will hold Liberty's interests in VodafoneZiggo and Telenet in Belgium.
