Nagarro stock was trading at EUR 79.73 at Lang & Schwarz on October 5, 2026, 1.57 percent below Persistent's EUR 81.00 cash offer. On September 22, 2026, Persistent reported that it had secured 83.25 percent of Nagarro's outstanding share capital.

Takeover clears the threshold

The 83.25 percent position combines 61.15 percent of Nagarro shares tendered during the initial acceptance period with a 22.10 percent stake previously secured from Lantano Beteiligungen GmbH. The initial period ended on September 17, 2026, and the additional acceptance period runs through October 6, 2026.

Persistent's offer gives eligible shareholders EUR 81.00 in cash per Nagarro share. Persistent also intends to pursue a delisting from the regulated market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and expects the transaction to close by the end of the first quarter of calendar 2027, subject to regulatory approvals, according to the September 22, 2026 release.

Liquidity becomes the key issue

The planned delisting matters because Persistent's release says Nagarro would leave the SDAX and experience reduced trading liquidity if admission to the regulated market ends. That changes the investor case from a normal operating-growth story toward a time-limited takeover process.

Nagarro's investor-relations page reports constant-currency revenue growth of 2.00 percent in the second quarter of 2026 and 4.20 percent in the first half of 2026, both compared with the corresponding prior-year periods. The same page identifies Nagarro as a digital engineering and transformation company with approximately 18,700 employees in 39 countries, while its latest reported interim period gives investors a current operating reference alongside the offer terms.

Stock stays below the cash offer

The spread to the EUR 81.00 offer is EUR 1.27 per share, or 1.57 percent below the offer price. At Lang & Schwarz, Nagarro stood at EUR 79.73 on October 5, 2026 at 2:58 p.m. CEST, up 0.38 percent versus the EUR 79.43 prior close dated October 2, 2026.
