Big sale in Kahoot after price drop
Haudemann-Andersen has long been one of the largest owners in the Norwegian e-learning company Kahoot, which for a long time had an adventurous development on the stock exchange. The company has been one of the Oslo Stock Exchange’s great success stories since the listing in 2019.
Kahoot reached a historic high in mid-January this year of over 132 kroner.
While the stock has risen, the investor still has to sit on his stock.
Until June, when it became known that he had got rid of about a fifth of his shares, worth around 700 million kroner.
This happens after Kahoot has been down sharply so far this year and has more than halved since the peak in January. Haudemann-Andersen’s big sale has sent the share further down. The share is traded on Friday at 12 for NOK 57.85.
«Date has sold 12 million shares, but still owns over 40 million shares or 8.5 percent of the company. We have not sold a share in Kahoot before and for us this is about being able to adjust the balance sheet and free up liquidity for other investments. It does not have to be more mysterious than that, “was the main message from Harald Arnet, general manager of Datum, about the sale. (Terms)Copyright Dagens Næringsliv AS and / or our suppliers.
