Accelerant agreed to be acquired and taken private by Thoma Bravo in an all‑cash $4+ billion merger at $20.25 per share, a 49% premium, expected to close in the first half of 2027 subject to approvals.

On August 13, 2026, Accelerant Holdings (NYSE: ARX) announced it entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired and taken private by Thoma Bravo in an all‑cash merger valuing the company at more than $4 billion, under which holders of Class A and Class B shares will receive $20.25 per share in cash, a 49% premium to the August 12, 2026 closing price, with a potential 6% per annum ticking fee if closing is delayed due to regulatory approvals. A special committee of independent directors and the full board unanimously approved the transaction, which is expected to close in the first half of 2027 subject to customary shareholder and regulatory approvals; entities affiliated with Altamont Capital Partners holding approximately 82% of voting rights have agreed to vote in favor, and Altamont and the founders intend to roll over equity alongside Thoma Bravo. Upon completion, Accelerant will become a private company and its shares will be delisted from the NYSE, and in light of the pending take‑private, the company will still release second quarter 2026 results on August 13, 2026 but will not host the previously scheduled earnings call.
