Schneider Electric acquisition of PTC Inc

Overview

Schneider Electric has entered a definitive agreement to acquire U.S.-based industrial software company PTC Inc. for approximately $22.6 billion in equity, representing a 42.3% premium. The acquisition is intended to bolster Schneider Electric’s industrial artificial intelligence and software capabilities by integrating PTC’s engineering and product design data with Schneider’s operational and energy data to create a unified ‘digital thread’.

To fund the transaction, Schneider Electric plans to raise up to €17 billion in debt and issue up to €6 billion in new shares. Following the announcement, Schneider Electric’s stock underwent a significant correction, losing approximately 14.6% of its value and reducing its market capitalization by roughly €15 billion. Investors have reportedly expressed concerns regarding the scale of the deal and its financing structure.

The transaction is expected to close by the third quarter of 2027, pending regulatory approvals and shareholder consent.
