Guidewire Signs Definitive Agreement to Acquire hyperexponential

Guidewire signed a definitive agreement to acquire London-based hyperexponential, an AI-native underwriting and pricing platform for commercial P&C insurers, for $1.7 billion in cash plus up to $400 million in contingent consideration. The deal is expected to add at least 650 basis points to Guidewire's fiscal 2027 ARR growth on an inorganic basis and at least 150 basis points to durable organic ARR growth from fiscal 2028. Funding comes from a $1.0 billion term loan committed by Bank of America and Citibank plus cash on hand, with closing expected in Guidewire's fiscal Q2 2027; Q1 FY27 guidance is unaffected.
