Insights

Private equity transaction analyst

TPG and Corpay closed a $10.00-per-share buyout, taking AvidXchange private at an implied enterprise value of about $2.2 billion.

AvidXchange completed a controlled sale to TPG (majority via TPG Capital) with Corpay as a minority partner, closing on October 15, 2025. The deal price of $10.00 per share and the statement that the company will operate as a private entity describe the direct business mechanism: private capital replaces public equity and delists the company from Nasdaq.

The primary dependencies are now private sponsors and customary post-close execution. The announcement cites regulatory approvals and shareholder consent on September 16, 2025, indicating the transaction cleared required gates. Risks include typical private-equity execution risks such as integration of strategic plans, governance shifts under majority ownership, and the need to translate stated growth intentions into measurable operational changes.

Watch for concrete milestones over the midterm such as product investment announcements, customer retention metrics, or guidance the new owners choose to disclose; the original transaction timeline began with the announcement on May 6, 2025 and closed on October 15, 2025.
