Blackbaud Announces Acquisition of Kintera

“Joining with Blackbaud gives us a way to leverage our capabilities with those of the industry leader and thus significantly improve the customer’s experience,” LaBarbera said. “We are very excited about the potential to offer more compelling solutions that enhance the donor experience and increase nonprofits’ abilities to raise more money.”

Blackbaud’s acquisition of Kintera is structured as an all-cash tender offer for all of the shares of Kintera at a price of $1.12 per share. The company is expected to formally launch the tender some time next week and close on or around July 2.
