Thoma Bravo has bought CX and EX company Medallia for a staggering $6.4billion.
Medallia shareholders will receive $34.00 per share in cash, approximately 20% to Medallia’s unaffected closing stock price and a premium of 29% to Medallia’s unaffected 30-day average price.
Medallia’s common stock has ceased trading and is no longer listed on the NYSE but the company will remain headquartered in San Francisco.
