Synopsis

Pearson, a UK-based IT company that offers educational software solutions for teaching consultancy, is assessing new acquisitions in Brazil, as published by Reuters on 8 June 2016, citing its president for Brazil, Luciano Kliemaschewsk.

According to the news, the company does not rule out acquisitions of colleges or schools, at a time when consolidation in the education sector in Brazil is strengthening with the proposals by Kroton Educacional (BVMF: KROT11) and Ser Educacional (BVMF: SEER3) for Estacio Participacões (BVMF: ESTC11). (see related intel)

"At the moment the market is hot, and proof of this are the proposals for Estacio Participacões, and several acquisition opportunities in Brazil, and we are analyzing them all, but there is still nothing definitive. We are looking at opportunities", said Luciano Kliemaschewsk.
