Workday Shares Surge on Silver Lake Takeover Report
Reuters reported on August 14, 2026 that private equity firm Silver Lake is in talks to potentially acquire payroll and HR software provider Workday. The news sent Workday shares up about 18% — their best single-day performance since 2016 — triggering multiple trading halts and lifting market value from roughly $43 billion to about $51 billion. Analysts told CNBC the potential buyout could establish a valuation floor for software stocks after an AI-driven selloff and spur further software M&A. The report noted recent leadership changes — co-founder Aneel Bhusri was renamed CEO in March 2026 — and that Workday had posted better-than-expected results in May and raised its forecast citing AI tailwinds, even as some investors worry AI might disrupt its business model. Workday and Silver Lake did not immediately comment.
