BRC Group Holdings, Inc. (RILY) entered into a merger agreement on September 28, 2026, to acquire Sangoma Technologies Corporation (SANG) in a deal valued at $204 million.
Sangoma shareholders will receive $4.925 in cash and 0.04767 of a BRC share for each Sangoma share held.
This values Sangoma at $5.19 per share, representing a 44.48% premium from the stock’s last close.
In the aggregate, Sangoma shareholders will receive roughly $170 million in cash and approximately $10 million in shares of BRC.
Sangoma Technologies is a provider of business communications solutions, offering cloud, hybrid, and on-premises unified communications, contact center, communications platform, and connectivity services. Its portfolio includes communications software, SIP trunking, managed services, and related hardware for businesses, service providers, and enterprises.

After the deal closes, existing Sangoma shareholders will own about 4% of BRC’s outstanding shares.
The deal is expected to be partially funded through an amended and restated $215 million senior secured term loan facility at BRC’s communications platform, along with an equity contribution from BRC. The facility will also be used to refinance the existing debt of BRC’s communications businesses. Banc of California is serving as sole lead arranger, bookrunner, and administrative agent, with Axos Bank and Israel Discount Bank of New York serving as lenders.
The merger is expected to close no later than early 2027.
