Shares in investment company Tintra (LON: TNT) have surged Friday after the firm identified a potential target for acquisition, concluded discussions regarding an AI joint-venture, and received an offer for its lottery administration business.
The company’s plan is to operate as a business authorised as an Electronic Money Institution by the UK Financial Conduct Authority, and Tintra believes an acquisition is the best way of fulfilling that plan.
“The Board has identified a potential target and accordingly is in advanced negotiations with the Target,” Tintra said in its statement.
