Reason for the Acquisition:
During October 2022, Veranda forayed into a knowledge intensive segment of highdemand commerce related test preparatory courses through acquisition of one of India’s premier CA test-prep institutes, J. K. Shah Education Private Limited (“J. K. Shah Classes”). J. K. Shah Classes has been in coaching to CA, CS, and CMA aspirants for the last 39 years.
This acquisition complements Veranda Learning’s existing offerings, including the extensive network and enabling a synergistic approach to expanding the reach of professional commerce courses.
Further discharging consideration for the acquisition of shares through the issuance of equity shares (Share swap) offered several strategic advantages to the Company. Primarily, it allowed the Company to conserve cash resources, which will be redirected towards other operational or growth initiatives. This also aligns the interests of the acquired entity’s shareholders with those of the Company, as they become shareholders of the Company and, therefore, stand to benefit from the future performance and value creation of the combined business. This structure facilitates a smoother transaction process, where the acquired entity’s shareholders will have long-term value participation rather than immediate liquidity. Overall, the share swap supports strategic consolidation while maintaining financial flexibility for the acquiring company.
