Permira Wraps Up Ancestry.com Deal

Permira has completed its $1.6 billion acquisition of Ancestry.com, the firm announced. Qatalyst Partners LP acted as financial advisor and Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz acted as legal counsel to Ancestry.com. The deal was first announced in October.

Permira, the European private equity firm with global reach, and Ancestry.com Inc. ACOM +0.16% , the world's largest online family history resource, today announced the successful completion of the acquisition of Ancestry.com by a company owned by Permira funds and co-investors for $32.00 per share in cash.

The transaction was approved by stockholders owning approximately 75% of Ancestry.com common stock at a special meeting of stockholders held on December 27, 2012. Pursuant to the terms of the previously announced merger agreement dated October 21, 2012, the investor group formed by the direction of the Permira funds has acquired all of the outstanding shares of Ancestry.com. As a result, Ancestry.com stock will cease trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market effective today.

Stockholders of Ancestry.com will receive a letter of transmittal from Ancestry.com's paying agent for them to complete and return with their stock certificates to obtain their per share merger consideration.

Ancestry.com will continue executing on its growth strategy and initiatives led by content acquisition and technology investments, with the support of the Permira funds and the investor group. There are no anticipated changes in the Ancestry.com operations. Ancestry.com will continue to focus on investing in content and technology, enhancing its user experience, expanding its product offerings, and building the Ancestry.com brand and the family history category all on a global basis. Ancestry.com will retain its operations in Provo, Utah, with a continued large presence in San Francisco, Dublin, London and other international markets. Ancestry.com will continue to be led by its existing management team.

"Haz tu Arbol Genealogico...El Arbol mas Hermoso de la Creacion"
Por medio de la historia familiar descubrimos el árbol más hermoso de la creación: nuestro árbol genealógico. Sus numerosas raíces se remontan a la historia y sus ramas se extienden a través de la eternidad. La historia familiar es la expresión extensiva del amor eterno; nace de la abnegación y provee la oportunidad de asegurarse para siempre una unidad familiar".
(Élder J. Richard Clarke, Liahona julio de 1989, pág.69)
