[1/2] Executives of Norwegian company Adevinta celebrate the firm’s first day of trading at the Oslo stock exchange, Norway April 10, 2019.
The consortium, which include funds General Atlantic and TCV, have offered to pay Adevinta shareholders 115 crowns per share.
The deal for Adevinta comes at a difficult time for dealmaking in Europe.
It is part of a trend of transactions where private equity firms have weighed buying back public companies they previously owned or still own stakes in.
Shareholders can receive cash, or a mix of cash and new shares in the emerging private entity.
