Odaily Planet Daily reports that payment company Stripe, in collaboration with private equity firm Advent International, has made a takeover offer for PayPal at $60.50 per share, valuing the company at over $53 billion—approximately 28% above PayPal’s closing price on Tuesday. The offer, submitted earlier this month, is backed by approximately $50 billion in committed bank financing. Stripe and Advent had initial discussions in early April and have yet to receive a response from PayPal; both parties are seeking to reach an agreement by the end of this month. Under the proposal, Stripe and Advent would jointly own PayPal, each holding a 50% stake, rather than splitting the company.
