The latest announcement is out from Insight Business Support Plc ( (GB:KLSO) ).
Kelso Group Holdings has provided an update on its significant stake in NCC Group, a UK-listed cybersecurity and software escrow specialist, following NCC’s agreement to sell its Escode business to TDR Capital for an enterprise value of £275 million. The disposal, which comes after a strategic review, is accompanied by NCC’s plans to return a substantial portion of the proceeds to shareholders and launch a £70 million share buyback, moves Kelso supports as value-accretive for investors. Post-transaction, NCC will become the UK’s largest pure-play cybersecurity firm, and Kelso expects the ongoing strategic review of NCC’s cyber division to culminate in a sale in 2026, arguing that the implied valuation of the remaining business is at a steep discount to peers and underscores broader undervaluation in the UK equity market. Kelso also noted that aside from a recent purchase of Saga shares and a £2 million fundraising completed in December 2025, its portfolio of six core investments remains largely unchanged, with further updates on holdings expected during 2026.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:KLSO) stock is a Hold with a £3.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Insight Business Support Plc stock, see the GB:KLSO Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on GB:KLSO Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:KLSO is a Neutral.
The score is weighed down primarily by the sharp deterioration in financial performance and cash generation in 2024 versus 2023, despite a relatively solid balance sheet. Technical indicators are broadly neutral with slightly weak short-term momentum, and valuation cannot be assessed due to missing P/E and dividend yield data.
