Cybersecurity firm Darktrace said on Monday that it is in the early stages of discussions with private equity firm Thoma Bravo about a possible takeover offer.
Responding to media speculation, the company said: “Discussions are at a preliminary stage and there can be no certainty that any offer will be made, nor as to the terms of any such offer.”
Under UK takeover rules, Thoma Bravo has until 12 September to either announce a firm intention to make an offer or walk away.
