EQT Seeks $6 Billion Sale Of SUSE

EQT is exploring a potential $6 billion sale of SUSE, the German open-source Linux distributor, after taking it private and refocusing on its Rancher container-management platform. SUSE is estimated to reach 14% revenue growth, a 36% EBITDA margin, and 108% retention by 2026, making it attractive to strategic or PE buyers. The move signals a thaw in the mid-2020s IPO freeze and could set enterprise-software valuation benchmarks.
