BRINK'S ISSUES STATEMENT ON CMA’S FAST-TRACK ANNOUNCEMENT
Company agrees to propose divestiture of NoteMachine/TestLink UK in connection with CMA review
Acquisition of NCR Atleos remains on track to close early in the first quarter of 2027
Richmond, Va., September 30, 2026 – The Brink's Company (NYSE: BCO) (“Brink’s” or “the Company”) today issued the following statement in connection with the United Kingdom's Competition and Markets Authority ("CMA") Phase 1 decision in relation to the Company’s previously announced agreement to acquire NCR Atleos Corporation (NYSE: NATL) (“NCR Atleos”):
“The CMA’s Phase 1 decision was always contemplated as a potential outcome and reflects the local overlap between Brink’s NoteMachine/TestLink UK business and NCR Atleos’ Cardtronics business in the UK. Brink’s has engaged constructively with the CMA throughout the CMA’s Phase 1 review process, a fact which is reflected in the CMA arriving at today’s decision under its ‘fast-track’ Phase 1 procedure.
The potential sale of NoteMachine/TestLink UK was a remedy that was contemplated in the financial metrics that Brink’s has previously disclosed and does not impact the $200 million in annual run-rate cost synergies that we continue to expect to achieve within three years of closing the transaction. The proposed sale process is progressing, with a number of prospective buyers having expressed strong preliminary interest. Brink’s looks forward to continuing constructive engagement with the CMA.
Supported by the constructive engagement with the CMA and meaningful progress in the proposed divestiture, the NCR Atleos acquisition remains on track to close early in the first quarter of 2027.”
