Northgate acquiring Anite?
Northgate Information Solutions has agreed to
acquire Anite Public Sector Holdings Limited, which incorporates
Anite’s local government and secure information systems businesses, for a total cash consideration of £54.3 million payable at completion, subject to the settlement of a £3.8 million receivable owed by Anite to Anite Public Sector and a working capital adjustment following completion.
Why is this of interest? Northgate Information Solutions is of course the ICT Contractor in the
Land Securities Trillium consortium (Preferred Bidder for
Kent's BSF). Also, Kent County Council is a customer of Anite software and services.
