Wireless tower operator IHS Holding Ltd. on Friday filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for an initial public offering.

The company's filing indicates it plans to raise $100 million, although that figure is often used as a placeholder to calculate filing fees.

South Africa-based telecommunications group MTN Group Ltd. currently holds a 29% stake in IHS, which operates more than 30,000 towers in Africa, Latin America and the Middle East.

IHS said it has applied list its shares on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol IHS.
