Rent-A-Center to be taken private by Vintage Capital in deal valued at about $1.4 billion

Rent-A-Center Inc. said Monday it has agreed to be taken private by Vintage Capital, a private and public equity firm, in a deal valued at about $1.365 billion.

The $15 price is equal to a premium of 49% over Rent-A-Center's closing price on Oct. 30, 2017, prior to the announcement that its board was evaluating its strategic options. Shares were halted premarket for the news, but have gained 8.4% in 2018, while the S&P 500 has gained 3.9%.
