Accelerant's go-shop period ends with no rival bids for Thoma Bravo deal

Accelerant Holdings (NYSE: ARX) announced that the 40-day "go-shop" period under its merger agreement with affiliates of Thoma Bravo expired at one minute before midnight Eastern time on September 22, 2026, with no alternative acquisition proposals received from any third party.

The merger agreement, signed August 13, 2026, calls for Thoma Bravo affiliates to acquire Accelerant in an all-cash transaction at an enterprise value of more than $4 billion. During the go-shop period, Accelerant was permitted to solicit and negotiate with potentially interested third parties regarding alternative proposals.

The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2027, subject to shareholder approval, required regulatory approvals, and other customary closing conditions. Upon completion, Accelerant will become a private company and its shares will be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange.
