E-commerce company eBay Inc. said Wednesday that it has agreed to sell around 125 million of its shares in Adevinta ASA to private equity firm Permira for $2.25 billion.
The sale sees eBay's stake in Norway's Adevinta fall to 34% from 44%, with Permira having an option to buy a further 10 million shares for $180 million, which would bring eBay's stake down to 33%.
EBay last year agreed to sell its classifieds business to Norway's Adevinta ASA in a cash and stock deal worth $9.2 billion and has committed to reducing its stake in the Norwegian company to 33% in order to secure approval for the deal from Austrian regulators.
"The transaction announced today with Permira provides a clear path to satisfying this commitment, while delivering value to eBay shareholders and introducing an experienced, world-class growth investor to Adevinta's shareholder base," eBay said.
The sale of shares is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2021.
