Following the announcement that Logica is to be acquired by CGI, Tom Reuner, principal analyst at Ovum has the following comment:
"Logica has long been muted to be an acquisition target after challenges in execution and cost structure. Given the pressure on its share price after the last earnings announcement, the move is hardly a surprise. More of a surprise is the company who announced its intention to acquire one of the last British IT stalwarts. Geographical scope and portfolio are complimentary. Both organisations have a strong focus on financial services and public sector and both are deeply entrenched in BYY.
