EQT Acquires Intertek Group for £9.3 Billion, Exiting London Stock Market

18 Haziran 2026Bloomberg

Intertek Group Plc has accepted a £9.3 billion ($12.3 billion) takeover offer from EQT AB, marking a significant exit of another British firm from the London stock market. This acquisition highlights the ongoing trend of private equity firms targeting established companies in the UK.
The deal reflects the current market dynamics and the appetite for investment in established businesses.
The deal comes amid a wave of privatizations in the UK, where companies are increasingly seeking to escape the pressures of public markets. The trend has been fueled by favorable financing conditions and the desire for more operational flexibility away from shareholder scrutiny.
The acquisition of Intertek by EQT signifies a broader trend of private equity firms capitalizing on undervalued assets in the UK market. As more companies opt for private ownership, it raises questions about the long-term implications for the London stock exchange and its attractiveness to investors.
