TELECOM ARGENTINA SA 6-K filed 2026-09-11

Telecom Argentina SA, which trades under the tickers TEO on the NYSE and TCMFF on the OTC market, filed this Form 6-K on 2026-09-11. It furnishes an English free translation of a letter dated September 11, 2026, which the company sent to Argentina's securities regulator, the Comisión Nacional de Valores. The letter was signed by Attorney-in-Fact Andrea V. Cerdán, and the report was signed by Luis Fernando Rial Ubago, Responsible for Market Relations. It follows up on a material event the company published on December 2nd, 2025. The letter reports a ruling by the Federal Court of Appeals of Tucuman in "Asociación de Consumidores del NOA versus Telecom Personal S.A. Re. Consumers' Defense Law," Docket 15065/2016. The case concerns a service outage that occurred on March 3, 2015. Federal Court No. 1 of Tucumán had originally ruled against the consumer association, and the association appealed. The appeals court partially granted that appeal. The appellate decision is split. It confirmed the trial court's rejection of compensatory liability attributed to Telecom Argentina for the outage. It reversed the trial court only on the question of proportional reimbursement to users of the price of the service not provided during the outage. For an analyst or journalist, the point is that the company has avoided a damages finding but now faces a reimbursement obligation tied to the outage. The size of that reimbursement is not in the filing. Neither is the number of users affected, the length or cause of the outage, any estimate of financial impact, or whether the company plans a further appeal.
