LBO France acquired a majority stake in Prenax concomitantly with Prenax's acquisition of LM Information's subscription management activities and its US subsidiary LM Inc. The combined entity — with a total business volume of approximately €250 million — becomes the independent European leader in information subscription procurement, serving large corporates, public institutions, and academic clients across France, the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and the Nordic countries. Andera Partners reinvested alongside LBO France through its ActoMezz III fund, having been a minority shareholder for three years prior.

Prenax acquired LM Information's subscription management activities and its US subsidiary LM Inc. in a transaction executed simultaneously with LBO France's majority investment in Prenax. The acquisition is transformative in nature, combining two highly complementary businesses — Prenax's strong corporate client base and Western European footprint with LM Information's deep academic and public sector expertise and presence across Northern and Central Europe — to create the independent European leader in information subscription procurement. The two entities present strong geographic complementarity particularly in Spain, Belgium, and the Netherlands, with significant synergies expected from the combination.
