Veritas Capital Completes Acquisition of Perspecta

Combination with Peraton creates leading government technology platform

Veritas Capital (“Veritas”), a longstanding investor in companies operating at the intersection of technology and government, today announced that an affiliate of Veritas has completed its previously announced acquisition of Perspecta Inc. (NYSE: PRSP) ("Perspecta"), a leading U.S. government services provider, in an all-cash transaction valued at $7.1 billion.

Perspecta will combine with Peraton, a portfolio company of Veritas and a leading provider of trusted and highly differentiated national security solutions and technologies. In February 2021 Peraton completed its acquisition of Northrop Grumman’s IT and mission support services business for $3.4 billion. The combination of Perspecta, Peraton, and the legacy Northrop Grumman business creates a top government technology platform with end-to-end capabilities supporting missions of consequence and long-standing, franchise relationships across the federal and state and local governments. The combined company will operate under the Peraton name and will be led by Peraton Chairman, President & Chief Executive Officer, Stu Shea.

“Perspecta has always been a differentiated, innovative leader in this industry, and this combination with Peraton will create a powerhouse within the government technology market,” said Ramzi Musallam, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Partner of Veritas. “With unparalleled capabilities and a deep bench of highly skilled employees, the combined Peraton is poised to drive enhanced value for all of its stakeholders. We look forward to investing in the long-term success of the unified enterprise and to working closely with Stu and management to support our customers’ most vital missions.”

“This is a truly transformational acquisition for Peraton and for our industry and we are thrilled to welcome our talented new colleagues from Perspecta,” said Stu Shea. “This milestone follows our recent acquisition of Northrop Grumman’s integrated mission support and IT solutions business and further strengthens Peraton’s leading position within the government technology market. We are confident that with Veritas’ continued support, we will be well-positioned to deliver highly differentiated solutions that meet the mission-critical needs of our combined customer base.”
