Cegid is a French business software company backed by private equity firm Silver Lake. The company is pursuing the acquisition of fintech Shine, a transaction the new financing is intended to support. Cegid replaced a previously underwritten €1.1 billion bridge loan with the current loan facility that matures in 2030. The firm secured pricing of 550 basis points over Euribor and an original issue discount of 98 cents on the euro for the facility. The acquisition close could be announced imminently according to people familiar with the matter.
