ThesisStreet consensus, scenarios, merits, risks, and invalidation triggers Thesis Summary KORE Group Holdings, Inc. is currently in a definitive agreement to be acquired by affiliates of Searchlight Capital Partners, L.P. and Abry Partners in an all-cash transaction valued at approximately $726 million, including debt. Under the terms of the agreement, stockholders will receive $9.25 per share in cash. Given that the stock is trading near the acquisition price of $9.25 (closing at $9.20 as of mid-June 2026) and the transaction is expected to close in the second or third quarter of 2026, the investment thesis is heavily anchored on the successful completion of this going-private transaction. A 'Hold' recommendation is appropriate as the stock price is capped by the merger consideration, with minimal upside unless a superior proposal emerges, which is highly unlikely given the support agreements representing approximately 48% of outstanding shares. This section is the 12-month view: analyst targets and the probability-weighted scenarios built from them. The intrinsic value at the top of this page answers a different question: what the business is worth today. Street view · analyst 12-month targets Low · most bearish analyst$5.00 Mean target$5.00 High · most bullish analyst$5.00 Our research · scenarios, merits, risks, and invalidation triggersResearch as of 19 Jun 2026 Scenarios · 12-month scenario targets Bear CaseDownside scenario $3.00 The bear case assumes the merger agreement is terminated due to failure to obtain stockholder approval, regulatory blocks, or material adverse changes. In this scenario, KORE would remain a public entity, and its stock price would likely fall back to its unaffected trading levels (pre-announcement levels below $3.00) due to its high debt load ($442.92 million) and persistent net losses ($28.5 million in Q1 2026). Base CaseCentral scenario $9.25 The base case assumes the merger with Searchlight Capital Partners and Abry Partners is approved by stockholders at the special meeting on July 16, 2026, receives all necessary regulatory clearances (HSR and CFIUS), and closes successfully in Q3 2026 at the agreed-upon price of $9.25 per share. Bull CaseUpside scenario $9.25 The bull case assumes a superior, unsolicited bid emerges from a third party during the pending transaction period, or that the merger closes swiftly without any regulatory or legal delays, allowing investors to capture the remaining arbitrage spread up to the $9.25 cash payout. Scenarios are anchored to street consensus at the research date, with our probabilities and rationale. Key Investment Merits
