HeadHunter Group PLC Announces Completion of LLC Zarplata.ru Acquisition
28 Diciembre 2020 - 3:00AM
HeadHunter Group PLC (Nasdaq: HHR, MOEX: HHRU) (HeadHunter or the
“Company”) announces today that it has completed the acquisition of
LLC Zarplata.ru (“Zarplata”) from Hearst Shkulev Digital Regional
Network B.V., as originally announced on November 24, 2020, for a
total purchase price of ₽3.5 billion in cash subject to customary
post-completion price adjustments and limited escrow arrangements
(the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition was funded by proceeds from
the Ruble bond that also closed in December and was previously
announced.
The Company believes the Acquisition will
accelerate HeadHunter’s development in key strategic areas such as
increasing penetration in the Russian Regions and outreach to blue
collars and SMAs.
The effect of the Acquisition on HeadHunter’s
2020 consolidated revenue is not expected to be material, given the
short period between the completion of the Acquisition and the end
of the 2020 fiscal year.
