Repay Holdings (NASDAQ:RPAY) shares are up on Friday. The company got an acquisition proposal from Forager Capital Management to acquire the company at $4.80 per share.

Details

This acquisition proposal comes with a significant premium of 75% over the company's 30-day volume-weighted average price of $2.75.

This indicates strong interest from a major shareholder.

Forager Capital Management, which owns approximately 13% of Repay Holdings, has made a non-binding offer to acquire all outstanding shares at $4.80 each.

The proposal aims to provide shareholders with immediate cash value and is positioned as a way to enhance the company's growth opportunities.

Kubra Data Transfer Buyout

Last month, Repay acquired Kubra Data Transfer for approximately $372 million, with a combination of cash on hand and debt financing.

The transaction brings together two complementary businesses, pairing REPAY's payments technology and expertise with KUBRA's strong vertical focus, partnerships, and go-to-market strategy.

Combined, the company will achieve greater scale across multiple high-growth markets, supporting more than $130 billion in annual payment volume.

Technical Analysis

Repay Holdings is currently trading within a range that reflects a recovery from its 52-week low of $2.30, with a current price of $4.07. The stock is trading 41.9% above its 20-day simple moving average (SMA) and 36.5% above its 50-day SMA, indicating strong short-term momentum. However, it remains 2.4% below its 200-day SMA, suggesting some long-term bearish pressure.
