Shares of Urgent, Inc. (ULY) rose 161% after hours on Friday after privately held digital driver assistance service provider Agero, Inc. said that it would acquire the company for $5.50 per share.
The purchase price represents a premium of about 171% from the stock’s closing price on Thursday.
Rationale
Urgent is a U.S.-based provider of technology-focused roadside and mobility assistance with solutions within the automotive, fleet, and rental markets. Agero said that the acquisition will combine the two companies’ technology, talent and scale to enhance the roadside assistance ecosystem, including for automakers, dealerships, insurance carriers, fleet operators, and the drivers they serve.
