Confirming the deal, Firmus said in a press release on February 9 that it would use the financing to bankroll the next phase of its Project Southgate to meet the increasing demand for high-performance computing. The Firmus’ Project Southgate is a national rollout of an AI Factory platform.
In other news, Chinese regulators have given their approval to Blackstone’s deal to acquire Hologic (HOLX), Reuters reported on February 10. Blackstone teamed up with TPG (TPG) to acquire Hologic, a specialist in women’s health diagnosis.
On February 2, Piper Sandler strategists reiterated a Neutral rating on BX stock but slashed the price target from $168 to $158. In taking this action, the strategists pointed to Blackstone’s 2026 guidance, which they view as tepid relative to market expectations. Consequently, the strategies lowered their 2026 and 2027 EPS estimates for Blackstone.
