Zalaris ASA ( (DE:81Y) ) just unveiled an announcement.
Norwegian HR and payroll services specialist Zalaris ASA has received a unanimously recommended voluntary cash tender offer from Kona BidCo AS, an acquisition vehicle indirectly owned by private equity fund Norvestor IX. The offer values Zalaris at NOK 100 per share, representing premiums of 40.1% to the last closing price and 31.9% to the 30-day volume-weighted average, and has been deemed financially fair by both ABG Sundal Collier and Pareto Securities.
The offer period runs from 16 to 30 April 2026, with Arctic Securities as receiving agent, and already has commitments covering about 30.9% of the outstanding shares through rollover agreements with key executives and pre-acceptances from major shareholders, including the full board. If successful, the transaction would shift Zalaris into private equity ownership while maintaining management’s involvement, potentially supporting further growth and strategic development, and offering shareholders an immediate cash exit at a substantial premium.
