Activist Forager Capital Takes 10% Stake in Repay Holdings, Pushes for Strategic Review
Summary
Forager Capital Management has disclosed a 10.0% activist stake in Repay Holdings Corp, converting its prior 13G filing to a 13D, signaling an intent to actively engage with the company. This development comes shortly after Repay Holdings reported a substantial net loss of $271.1 million for FY2025, driven by a significant goodwill impairment, and with the stock currently trading near its 52-week low. The activist investor plans to discuss strategic alternatives with Repay's board and management, including potential mergers, take-privates, reorganizations, or liquidations. This move could serve as a significant catalyst for the underperforming payments company, potentially driving efforts to unlock shareholder value. Investors should monitor future communications from Forager Capital and any strategic responses from Repay's board.
