Technology-focused investor Thoma Bravo has agreed to acquire Everbridge, a CEM software company.
The all-cash transaction values Everbridge at approximately $1.5bn.
Everbridge, founded in 2002, is engaged in offering national public warning solutions and CEM services.
Thoma Bravo said the deal will bolster Everbridge’s growth amidst increasing global uncertainties and the need for enhanced public safety and operational continuity.
As part of the agreement, Everbridge shareholders will receive $28.60 per share in cash, which is a 32% premium over the company’s volume-weighted average share price for the past 90 days.
Everbridge’s suite of software-as-a-service products includes mass notification, IT incident management, travel risk management, physical security information management, population alerting, and risk intelligence.
