Triton has made a rival offer for Finnish construction systems provider Caverion that valued the takeover target at around $1.17bn.
Triton’s offer of 8 euros per share exceeded a bid of 7 euros announced in November by North Holdings, a Bain Capital-led consortium that had valued Caverion at 955 million euros.
Triton said in a statement on Tuesday it was seeking the support of Caverion’s board for its takeover and hoped to complete the deal in the third or fourth quarter.
