Envestnet Completes Acquisition of Yodlee
Chicago, IL—November 19, 2015—Envestnet, Inc. (NYSE: ENV), a leading provider of unified wealth management technology and services to financial advisors, and Yodlee, Inc., the leading cloud-based platform driving digital financial innovation, today announced that the acquisition, originally disclosed on August 10, 2015, has been completed.
“We warmly welcome the Yodlee team to the Envestnet family. Yodlee’s pioneering data aggregation solutions greatly strengthen Envestnet’s broadly integrated wealth management platform and solve a mission critical problem that advisors and their clients are facing today — efficient client onboarding and comprehensive planning over all of the client’s assets,” said Jud Bergman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Envestnet. “Advisors seeking solutions that will enable them to serve and add value to their clients for their lifetime will find the combined Envestnet-Yodlee offerings to be compelling.”
“The entire Yodlee team is excited about this next chapter for the combined company,” said Anil Arora, Chief Executive, Envestnet|Yodlee. “The combination taps Yodlee’s expansive ecosystem of financial institutions and financial technology innovators utilizing our industry-leading financial data platform, APIs, and solutions to drive their continued business success and to also fuel our new combined company’s strength and momentum in the wealth management space.”
The completion of the acquisition follows the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals and approval of the transaction by Yodlee’s stockholders, which was obtained at a special meeting of Yodlee stockholders held on November 19, 2015.
Yodlee stockholders will receive $11.51 in cash and 0.1889 of a share of Envestnet common stock per Yodlee share. Based upon the volume weighted average price per share of Envestnet common stock for the 10 consecutive trading days ending on (and including) November 17, 2015, the second trading day immediately prior to completion of the transaction, Yodlee stockholders will receive consideration with a value of $17.49 per share, representing fully-diluted equity value of approximately $610 million. As Yodlee has approximately $72 million in cash and cash equivalents, the transaction reflects an enterprise value of approximately $538 million.
Envestnet will pay approximately $371 million in cash and issue approximately 6,084,000 shares of Envestnet common stock in the transaction. Additionally, there were approximately 1,058,000 shares issued in connection with unvested employee equity awards. Envestnet is funding the cash portion of the purchase price with available balance sheet cash and approximately $160 million of bank borrowings.
Anil Arora, CEO and a director of Yodlee is today joining Envestnet as Chief Executive Envestnet|Yodlee and the Envestnet board, as Vice Chairman.
As a result of the completion of the transaction, Yodlee’s common stock will no longer be listed for trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market or any other securities exchange and Yodlee’s reporting obligations under Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 will be suspended.
