Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. is entering into an all-cash agreement to acquire MarketAxess Holdings Inc. via a merger in which MarketAxess will become a wholly owned subsidiary. Each share of MarketAxess common stock will be converted at closing into $167.00 in cash, representing an equity value of approximately $6.0 billion, an enterprise value of approximately $5.7 billion, and a 33% premium to MarketAxess’s July 29, 2026 closing price.
ICE plans to fund the consideration and related costs with a combination of cash and incremental debt, supported by a committed $6.25 billion, 364‑day senior unsecured bridge facility from Bank of America as backup financing; completion of financing is not a condition to closing. Most MarketAxess equity awards will roll into ICE options and RSUs based on an exchange ratio tied to ICE’s 10‑day volume‑weighted average price, while certain director and former-employee awards will be cashed out.
The merger is subject to MarketAxess stockholder approval, expiration of Hart‑Scott‑Rodino waiting periods, other regulatory clearances and absence of a Company Material Adverse Effect; ICE stockholder approval is not required. MarketAxess is generally restricted from soliciting competing bids but may consider a Superior Proposal, in which case it may owe ICE a $148,800,000 termination fee. ICE may owe MarketAxess a $327,400,000 regulatory termination fee if the deal fails for specified antitrust reasons. The companies expect closing in the first half of 2027 and state that the transaction is expected to be accretive to ICE’s adjusted EPS in the first year and create a more integrated global fixed income marketplace.
