GoJo secures Waystar Royco acquisition

Swedish tech giant GoJo has completed the $46 billion acquisition of Waystar Royco following a knife edge board vote that split the controlling Roy family.

In a bid to appease US regulators Lukas Matsson, founder of GoJo, has installed Tom Wambsgans, head of news division ATN as chief executive officer.

The deal brings to a conclusion the intensely observed succession drama at the head of the Roy family following the death of media mogul Logan Roy.

GoJo’s final offer of $192 per share values WayStar at $46bn. 

Speculation is now rife as to what the Roy siblings – Roman, Kendall, and Shiv – will do now they are exiting the business.
