Investment company EQT is exploring options for selling software company SUSE. According to insiders, a transaction could value the Linux company at up to approximately $6 billion, or more than \u20ac5 billion. <\/strong><\/p>\n

According to Reuters, the exploration is still in its early stages, and it is not certain that a sale process will actually follow.<\/strong><\/p>\n

EQT has engaged investment bank Arma Partners to explore a potential sale. Arma Partners will gauge interest among other investors, particularly private equity firms. According to sources, the discussions are confidential and are primarily intended to explore the market.<\/p>\n

EQT has been involved with SUSE for many years and delisted the company in 2023. At that time, the company\u2019s value was set at approximately \u20ac2.72 billion.

The potential sale comes at a time when software companies are under pressure on the stock market. The rapid rise of generative AI is shifting expectations in the technology sector. Some investors fear that new AI tools will make certain software categories less relevant, affecting valuations and making it more difficult to finance acquisitions.<\/p>\n

At the same time, other investors see opportunities for infrastructure software providers. Organizations that develop and implement AI applications need reliable platforms for their workloads.

SUSE is estimated to have annual revenues of approximately $800 million and EBITDA of more than $250 million. Depending on market conditions, sources say the company could fetch between $4 billion and $6 billion in a sale.<\/p>\n
