team.blue, a pan-European provider of digital services for small and medium-sized businesses, has extended €1.1 billion of its €1.35 billion Term Loan B. The Ghent-based company, backed by Hg, CPP Investments and Sofina, priced the deal on October 22, 2026. The refinanced tranche now matures in July 2032, instead of September 2029. About 90% of the company's term debt now falls due in 2032. Demand was strong. The deal was upsized twice from an initial €500 million, making it the largest software euro term loan issuance in the last 12 months. It priced at E + 425bps with an original issue discount of 98.5.

Citi's Radke: AI splits software into winners like Microsoft and losers like Adobe

Citi's Tyler Radke says AI is splitting software into winners and losers. Radke, co-head of US software equity research, told Bloomberg Television that AI is lifting growth at Microsoft, Palantir, and Snowflake. He expects Microsoft's revenue growth to top 20%, up from 18% in the quarter ended June 30. Office costs under $100 a month and bundles security and Copilot, while rivals charge hundreds of dollars, leaving room to raise prices. Adobe and smaller application vendors face pressure as IT budgets shift to AI, he said. Salesforce agreed to buy Braze for $47.50 per share in cash. Radke questions whether Salesforce can speed up organic growth after half a dozen large deals. If financing stays costly, he expects scale to decide who survives.
