Acquired Company
Marlowe PLC
Description
In late June 2025, Mitie Group plc announced its £366 million acquisition of Marlowe PLC. The acquisition is expected to create annual synergies of £30 million, despite some immediate integration costs. Investor concerns about execution risks have contributed to a decline in Mitie's share price. This acquisition may trigger further takeover interest in Mitie's undervalued assets.
