DXC Nears $2.4B Sale of Insurance Software Unit to Eldridge
DXC sits 87% above its 52-week low of $7.9.
Summary
DXC is in advanced talks to sell its insurance software and services division to private investment firm Eldridge Industries for about $2.4 billion, per Reuters sources. Eldridge would fold the business into Zinnia, its insurance technology platform serving life and annuity providers. A deal could be signed within weeks, though talks could still fall apart. The price is roughly equal to DXC's entire market value, so a completed sale would be transformational for a company whose adjusted EBIT fell 30.6% and whose GIS segment profit collapsed 61% in Q1 FY27. It also follows a Q1 where GAAP net income of $126M leaned on a $214M litigation gain rather than operations. Watch for a definitive agreement in the coming weeks; no deal is certain.
At the time of this announcement, DXC was trading at $14.77 on NYSE in the Technology sector, with a market capitalization of approximately $2.4B. The 52-week trading range was $7.90 to $15.68.
