In the last three months, RealPage Inc. (NASDAQ:RP) stock gained 26% and on March 1st it had a closing price of $87.12. Here is what the fund said:
“RealPage is a leading provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry. The company’s on-demand software platform addresses the entire lifecycle of rental real estate through four distinct product families: property management, resident services, leasing and marketing, and asset optimization. RealPage provides a technology platform used by owners and managers of rental properties. Tenants may pay their rent or submit a maintenance request using RealPage’s software. The company also keeps a database of real-time lease transactions allowing it to forecast where markets are heading. Private-equity firm Thoma Bravo struck a deal to acquire RealPage for $9.6 billion, in one of the largest recent leveraged buyouts. Thoma Bravo is paying $88.75 per share for the company, a 31% premium to RealPage’s closing price on Friday, Dec. 18, 2020. The company has until Wednesday, Feb. 3, 2021, to solicit higher competing offers for a break-up fee equivalent to 1% of the transaction value. We are patiently awaiting the outcome of that process while simultaneously reviewing how we will deploy proceeds from the company’s sale.”
