De La Rue plc is a British company that provides secure digital and physical solutions for protecting goods, trade, identities, and currencies worldwide. Founded in 1813 and headquartered in Basingstoke, England, the company operates in over 140 countries through facilities including sites in Malta, Kenya, and Sri Lanka; it serves governments, central banks, and international brands with its Authentication and Currency divisions. The Authentication division offers government revenue solutions such as digital tax stamps and traceability software for excisable goods including e-cigarettes, pharmaceuticals, and consumer electronics; brand protection services with holographics and micro-optics; and identity systems featuring polycarbonate data pages for passports. The Currency division delivers end-to-end banknote solutions encompassing fully finished high-security banknotes for over 69 national currencies, polymer substrate, specialized security features, and design services to more than half of the world's central banks and issuing authorities. In a major strategic change, De La Rue agreed in April 2025 to a recommended all-cash acquisition by US private equity firm Atlas Holdings for approximately GBP 263-347 million at 130 pence per share, which received shareholder approval, UK and Malta regulatory clearances, and completed on July 2, 2025, resulting in its delisting from the London Stock Exchange.
