PRESS: Private Equity Firm CVC Plotting Bid For Capita - Daily Mail

Thu, 03rd Sep 2020 10:35

(Alliance News) - Shares in Capita PLC rose sharply on Thursday after the Daily Mail reported the outsourcer was subject to bid interest from a private equity firm.

Capita shares were up 12% at 32.89 pence, the best performer in the FTSE 250.

According to the Daily Mail late Wednesday, CVC Capital Partners is circling in on Capita with its shares down 80% this year.

CVC, one of Europe's largest private equity businesses which previously owned Legoland operator Merlin Entertainments, could face competition from a rival predator, the report said.

Sunday newspaper round-up: Capita, EasyJet, ZeroAvia

(Sharecast News) - The man brought in to turn around outsourcer Capita's fortunes sounded a far more chipper note in an interview. Since late 2017, the company has sold off large chunks of the business, while trying to position itself as a technology outfit in areas such as artificial intelligence and running chatbots for firms such as O2. Staff levels have been slashed from 73,000 to 52,000 and debt brought down to a level that is easier to manage. But the key change has been in the firm's corporate culture, according to Lewis. It now emphasises client relationships. Lewis also sounded a positive note on the outlook for the share price, predicting that it would be back at its pre-rights issue level in the next year or two. - Financial Mail on Sunday
