In other recent news, Enfusion Inc. announced its fourth-quarter earnings for 2024, coinciding with the company’s acquisition agreement with Clearwater Analytics at $11.25 per share. This acquisition price has become a focal point for analysts and investors. Stifel analysts maintained a Hold rating on Enfusion, aligning their price target with the acquisition offer. Meanwhile, Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) downgraded Enfusion from Overweight to Equal-weight, also adjusting their price target to $11.25, reflecting the acquisition terms.
The acquisition agreement, which values Enfusion at a 13% premium over its previous closing price, is seen as favorable by Stifel analysts, who believe a higher competing bid is unlikely. Morgan Stanley’s analysis suggests that the acquisition addresses concerns about Enfusion’s limited public float and its dependency on the startup hedge fund sector. The valuation of the acquisition is based on an estimated 18x multiple on the revised EBITDA forecast, which Morgan Stanley notes is a discount compared to industry peers.
The acquisition represents a significant transition for Enfusion, with both Stifel and Morgan Stanley aligning their price targets with the agreed share price. Investors are closely monitoring these developments as the acquisition process continues. The market’s response reflects the anticipated completion of the deal, with analysts indicating that the stock is expected to stabilize around the acquisition price.
