Nagarro stock is entering a potential final phase as Barchart reported on October 9, 2026 that Persistent had secured 94.04 percent of Nagarro's share capital and voting rights after the offer period ended on October 6, 2026. The result leaves the remaining minority holding at 5.96 percent and gives the bidder a clear path toward a taking-private strategy.

Three steps changed the ownership picture

On August 14, 2026, Nagarro reported constant-currency revenue growth of 2.00 percent for the second quarter of 2026 and 4.20 percent for the first half of 2026. On September 22, 2026, Persistent reported that its combined stake had reached 83.25 percent after the initial acceptance period.

The final step added 1,335,114 tendered shares, equal to 10.79 percent of Nagarro's outstanding capital excluding treasury shares, according to Barchart on October 9, 2026. Together with the 71.94 percent tendered through the offer and the earlier 22.10 percent stake, the ownership total reached 94.04 percent.

What 94.04 percent means for Nagarro

Persistent plans to initiate a squeeze-out of the remaining minority shareholders after closing, although the release states that no final decision has been taken. The transaction is expected to close by the end of the first quarter of 2027, subject to a limited number of outstanding regulatory approvals.

The ownership result also changes the trading backdrop. Persistent's earlier release said a completed taking-private strategy would involve ending Nagarro's admission to the regulated market and removing the stock from the SDAX, with a reduction in liquidity.

Dates and the last Xetra price

The key forward date is the expected transaction closing by the end of the first quarter of 2027. Nagarro's last Xetra price was EUR 77.50 on October 12, 2026, below the EUR 81.00 cash offer per share.
