KKR Elevates Offer for DATAGROUP Shares

On June 1, 2025, KKR, through its holding company BidCo, announced an increase in its public purchase offer for DATAGROUP shares. This conditional offer sees a potential rise in share purchase price depending on acceptance levels. With the current offer price set at EUR 54.00 per share, it will increase to EUR 56.50 if the acceptance threshold reaches 80%, and to EUR 58.00 if it reaches 90%.

BidCo has already secured approximately 59.4% of DATAGROUP shares, with the offer closing on June 6, 2025. After this period, DATAGROUP will be delisted, and no further bid price increase will be considered. Both DATAGROUP's Management Board and Supervisory Board support the offer, enhancing its appeal to shareholders.

The offer remains appealing due to a 33% premium on the closing share price as of April 15, 2025. Shareholders who have already accepted the offer will benefit if acceptance thresholds are met.
