Business
De La Rue plc, headquartered in Basingstoke, England and founded in 1813, manufactures secure banknotes, polymer substrates, security features including holograms and threads, and design services for over half of the world's central banks and issuing authorities in more than 140 countries; it also produces high-security documents such as tax stamps, polycarbonate data pages for passports, brand protection labels, and government revenue solutions encompassing track-and-trace software and authentication tokens for governments, international brands, and businesses across five continents with manufacturing sites in the UK, Malta, Kenya, and Sri Lanka. The company, the world's largest commercial printer of banknotes for over 69 national currencies, operates primarily in the Currency division following the October 2024 agreement to sell its Authentication division to Crane NXT for £300 million, a transaction expected to complete on 1 May 2025; in April 2025, its board recommended a £263 million all-cash takeover by ACR Bidco, an entity indirectly owned by US-based private equity firm Atlas Holdings, valuing shares at 130 pence each and completed on 3 July 2025, resulting in delisting from the London Stock Exchange and transition to private ownership to support long-term growth and investment in its cyclical industry.
