Exhibit 99.1

SS&C Technologies to Acquire Calastone

 

WINDSOR, CT, July 21, 2025 (BUSINESS WIRE) – SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: SSNC) today announced a definitive agreement to acquire Calastone, the largest global funds network and leading provider of technology solutions to the wealth and asset management industries, from global investment firm Carlyle. The purchase price is approximately £766 million (approximately US $1.03 billion), subject to certain adjustments.

Headquartered in London, Calastone operates the largest global funds network, connecting more than 4,500 of the world’s leading financial organizations across 57 markets. The acquisition is expected to close in Q4 2025, subject to regulatory approvals. SS&C expects the acquisition to be accretive within 12 months and plans to fund the purchase with a combination of debt and cash on hand. Calastone’s more than 250 staffers in London, Luxembourg, Hong Kong, Taipei, Singapore, New York and Sydney are expected to join SS&C Global Investor & Distribution Solutions, reporting to General Manager Nick Wright.

“We’re excited to welcome Julien, the Calastone team and their valued clients to SS&C,” said Bill Stone, Chairman and CEO of SS&C Technologies. “Together, we will create a more connected, automated, and intelligent global fund ecosystem — reducing complexity, enhancing client experience, and shaping the future of distribution and investment operations.”

The acquisition of Calastone reinforces SS&C’s commitment to transforming investment operations and bolsters SS&C’s ongoing geographic expansion. Calastone’s global network and technology solutions complement SS&C’s leadership in fund administration, transfer agency services, AI and intelligent automation. By combining capabilities, the two companies will deliver a unified, real-time operating platform to reduce cost, complexity, and operational risk across the global fund ecosystem as well as shaping distribution. This strategic alignment enables enhanced distribution, investor servicing, and operational scalability — empowering asset and wealth managers to innovate, diversify products, and deliver better outcomes for investors worldwide.

“We are pleased to be combining forces with SS&C in our joint mission to build the most comprehensive, intelligent and connected wealth and asset management ecosystem,” said Julien Hammerson, CEO of Calastone. “SS&C’s global scale and deep expertise across fund services and technology will enable us to accelerate innovation and deliver new digital capabilities to the market. We look forward to working together to deliver transformational services to asset and wealth managers and drive growth.”

Fernando Chueca, Managing Director on the Carlyle Europe Technology Partners investment advisory team, said: “We are pleased to have supported Calastone through such a transformational period of growth for the business. Its well-established technology network represents a differentiated, automated offering and we believe the business is well-positioned to build upon its market position and business momentum. We are confident that SS&C is the right partner to continue Calastone's success, and we look forward to watching the company thrive in its next phase.”

SS&C was advised by Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP. Barclays served as exclusive financial advisor to Calastone and Linklaters and Mishcon De Reya served as legal advisors to Calastone in connection with the transaction.
