SUMMIT PARTNERS CASHES IN AVAST
INVESTMENT
Investors quickly snapped up 5.5% of
CYBERSECURITYûlRMûAVAST on Monday, as
long-term shareholder Summit Partners
sold shares in an accelerated bookbuild to
raise £144.5m and exit its investment.
Accounts were already lined up in
anticipation of a sell-down, a banker
involved said, and wall-crossing meant
books were effectively covered at launch.
The deal launched straight after the close,
ANDûANûOFlCIALûCOVEREDûMESSAGEûFOLLOWEDû
15 minutes later.
A total of 52.5m shares were sold,
amounting to around 25 days’ trading.
Initially launched with reference to the
market, price guidance of 275p-277p per
SHAREûCAMEûJUSTûAFTERûPMûANDûlNALLYû
landed on 275p per share. This represents
a wide 6.9% discount to Monday’s close of
295.3p, though as shares hit a high at the
end of the day the more modest 5.7%
discount to the VWAP for the day’s trading
should also be considered.
Shares opened on Tuesday below the
discounted price at 271.9p each, but had
climbed above the placing price within an
hour, and closed on Tuesday at 275.25p. By
Thursday’s close they had risen further, to
282p each.
“A number of investors who came in
through the IPO used this opportunity to
top up their stakes,” the banker said. “The
book contained around a dozen names,
and the top 10 took 70% of the shares.”
Tech funds managed by generalist
investors were dominant.
Avast’s share price has risen around 18%

CEGEREAL SECURES FUNDS FOR
PARIS ACQUISITION
Real estate company CEGEREAL secured
90.42% take-up for its €79.9m rights issue,
though shareholder commitments ensured
the full target proceeds were secured.

2m shares, with a little over 200,000 shares
left over.

by Cegereal’s two major shareholders,
Northwood Investors and GIC, which had
committed to subscribing to all of their
rights and the remaining shares.
Northwood’s stake rose to 56.32% from
55.38% following the rights issue, while GIC now
holds 25.43% of the company, up from 25%.
