Clearwater Analytics Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:CWAN) completed the acquisition of Enfusion, Inc. (NYSE:ENFN) from a group of shareholders.
Clearwater Analytics Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:CWAN) entered into an agreement and plan of merger to acquire Enfusion, Inc. (NYSE:ENFN) from a group of shareholders for approximately $1.2 billion on January 10, 2025. Under the terms of the merger agreement, Enfusion shareholders will receive consideration equal to $11.25 per share consisting of $5.85 per share in cash and $5.40 per share in Clearwater Class A Common Stock. This represents a 13% premium over the January 10, 2025, closing price of Enfusion Stock and a 32% premium over the undisturbed closing price of Enfusion Stock on September 19, 2024, the last trading day prior to media rumors about a potential sale of Enfusion. The exchange ratio will be determined at close with reference to a 10% collar around a Clearwater Class A Common Stock price of $27.79. If the volume weighted average price of Clearwater Class A Common Stock for the 10-trading day period ending on the second to last trading day prior to the closing date (the “Final Parent Stock Price”) is below $25.01, then Enfusion shareholders will receive 0.2159 shares of Clearwater Class A Common Stock per share of Enfusion Stock. If the Final Parent Stock Price is above $30.57, then Enfusion shareholders will receive 0.1766 shares of Clearwater Class A Common Stock per share of Enfusion Class A Common Stock. If the Final Parent Stock Price is greater than or equal to $25.01, but less than or equal to $30.57, then Enfusion shareholders will receive a number of shares of Clearwater Class A Common Stock determined by dividing $5.40 by the Final Parent Stock Price. Enfusion shareholders will be able to elect to receive the mixed cash/stock consideration described above, or all-cash or all-stock consideration, subject to proration to the extent cash or stock is oversubscribed. Regardless of the mix elected, the value per share will be equalized ahead of closing, such that the value of each election choice will be substantially the same. Clearwater is expected to pay a total of approximately $760 million in cash and issue between approximately 23 million and 28 million new shares to Enfusion shareholders. In connection with the transaction, an additional $30 million will be paid to retire Enfusion’s TRA. This payment represents an approximately 78% reduction to the contractual early termination obligation otherwise due under the TRA in connection with a change of control, representing an approximately $105 million benefit to Enfusion’s shareholders. Clearwater has obtained committed financing to support the transaction, which is expected to be funded, together with cash on hand, with a $800 million Term Loan B to fund the transaction and refinance certain existing debt. Clearwater has also secured commitments for a $200 million revolving line of credit. Gross leverage at closing is expected to be approximately 3.7 times adjusted pro forma EBITDA. Committed financing for the transaction has been provided by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The Company and Parent may also terminate the Merger Agreement by mutual written consent. The Company is required to pay Parent a termination fee of $52,325,000 in cash on termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances.
The completion of the Mergers is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary mutual closing conditions, including (a) the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon, voting as a single class (the “Stockholder Approval”), (b) the absence of any order or other action that is in effect (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) by a governmental authority restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Mergers or applicable law that is in effect that makes consummation of the Mergers illegal or otherwise prohibited, (c) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period (and any extension thereof) under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and any agreement with any governmental authority not to consummate the Mergers and (d) the effectiveness of the registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed by Parent in connection with the Mergers. The obligation of each party to consummate the Mergers is also conditioned on the other party’s representations and warranties being true and correct (subject to certain customary materiality exceptions) and the other party having performed in all material respects its obligations under the Merger Agreement. The shareholders of Clearwater Analytics approved the transaction. The merger agreement has been unanimously approved by a Special Committee of the Board of Directors of Enfusion, consisting of directors independent of Enfusion’s TRA holders, as well as by the Boards of Directors of both companies. Certain shareholders of Enfusion affiliated with FTV, ICONIQ and Movchan, collectively holding approximately 45% of Enfusion’s total voting power, have entered into voting and support agreements in favor of the transaction. The transaction is anticipated to close in Q2 of 2025.
