Private equity firm GTCR and activist investor Elliott Investment Management entered advanced discussions to acquire CCC Intelligent Solutions, a Chicago-based software provider for the automotive insurance and repair industries. Following reports of these potential negotiations, shares of the company rose significantly.

On October 15, the companies reached an agreement for a $6.1 billion take-private deal. Under the terms, shareholders will receive $7.75 in cash per share, which represents a 44% premium to the stock’s closing price on July 9. The all-cash transaction is not subject to financing conditions. 

CCC provides software-as-a-service (SaaS) tools to the property and casualty insurance industry, connecting more than 35,000 businesses, including insurers, automakers, and repairers, to facilitate claims management and damage estimation. CEO Githesh Ramamurthy stated that the new ownership is intended to help the company expand its network and accelerate its artificial intelligence capabilities. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2027, at which point CCC will become a privately held company.
