GE Vernova To Sell Proficy Software Unit To TPG For $600M

GE Vernova (GEV) and TPG announced on Thursday that the global alternative asset management firm will acquire GE Vernova's Proficy manufacturing software business for $600 million. GE Vernova may receive additional sale proceeds in the future, depending on various outcomes and conditions.

TPG said it will invest in Proficy through TPG Capital, the firm's U.S. and European private equity platform. The proposed transaction would establish Proficy as a standalone software business that helps its more than 20,000 customers
