Prysmian's $95-Per-Share Offer Sends Atkore Stock Flying 27%

Atkore Inc. (NYSE: ATKR ) stock surged about 27% in Monday’s premarket session after the electrical products maker agreed to a $3.8 billion all-cash takeover by Prysmian S.p.A. (OTC: PRYMY ) and reported better-than-expected fiscal third-quarter results.

Atkore Takeover: Prysmian Offers $95 Per Share Prysmian agreed to acquire Atkore for $95 per share in cash, representing a roughly 30% premium to Atkore’s July 31 closing price of $72.96.

The offer also represents a 57% premium to the stock’s September 29, 2025, closing price of $60.69, the last trading day before Atkore announced its strategic review.

The companies expect the transaction to close by the end of 2026, subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals and other customary conditions.

Both boards unanimously approved the agreement, and Atkore’s board intends to recommend it to shareholders.

The $95-per-share all-cash takeover offer served as a major catalyst for Atkore’s stock, driving a premarket rally as investors priced in a substantial deal premium and a guaranteed cash exit.

Deal Expands North American Portfolio Prysmian plans to fund the acquisition through a combination of debt, hybrid bonds, equity and treasury-share disposals while seeking to preserve its investment-grade credit profile.

The transaction will expand Prysmian’s North American electrical infrastructure business and broaden its exposure to electrification and data-center development. “This transaction is the culmination of our comprehensive strategic review process to maximize shareholder value and reflects the strength of Atkore’s differentiated portfolio of critical electrical infrastructure products,” Atkore Chairman Michael V.

Schrock said.
