Cafeyn Group has announced the acquisition of Readly’s non-Nordic operations marking a significant step forward in its European expansion
In a context of rapidly evolving consumption habits and increasing competition across global content platforms, this acquisition enables Cafeyn to reach critical scale at the European level and to further strengthen its positioning within a broader digital ecosystem spanning news, audio and video services. Cafeyn Group now reaches a new milestone with combined revenues of nearly €100 million, and operates across 15 markets, serving 2.5 million users and providing access to more than 5,200 publications from 1,100 partner publishers. This transaction illustrates Cafeyn’s ambition to build a leading pan-European platform, capable of combining large-scale distribution, technological innovation and adaptation to local market specificities. It enables the Group to consolidate its positions in key markets, notably the United Kingdom, Benelux, and to accelerate its expansion in high-potential markets such as Germany.
The combined group will offer broader international reach through a unified technology platform, creating more value for the entire ecosystem, while preserving what matters most: a broad and high-quality access to information.
Cambon Partners has advised on the structuring of the acquisition financing, including the refinancing of the group's existing debt.
