PayPal Receives $53 Billion Takeover Bid at $60.50/Share — Stripe and Advent Offer 28% Premium in Equal-Stake Joint Acquisition

Stripe and Advent International submitted a joint bid to acquire PayPal Holdings for $60.50 per share, valuing the payments company at more than $53 billion — a 28% premium to Tuesday's close — backed by roughly $50 billion in committed bank financing. The proposal calls for equal ownership between Stripe and Advent, with no plans to break up the company. PayPal has not responded to the offer. Shares jumped as much as 20% in premarket trading Wednesday.
