Team,

As a follow up to our last Town Hall, I wanted to inform you that yesterday we filed a preliminary proxy statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that outlines the information that shareholders need to know in order to vote on the Thoma Bravo transaction. Once the SEC has approved the proxy statement, it will be mailed to shareholders entitled to vote on the transaction. The transaction must be approved by holders of a majority of outstanding shares of common stock, and we expect the transaction to close in Q3.

Since the announcement of the transaction, we have received significant positive feedback indicating that our customers and partners are aligning to our future plan and that our team continues to stay focused on winning business, improving our operating margins by eliminating unnecessary spending, and driving the business to new levels of performance. Again, I want to say how proud I am of this team and the legacy of innovation, performance and delivery we are building in the market.

With your continued customer focus, the acquisition with Thoma Bravo will only make us stronger. I will continue to keep you updated on our progress. And in the meantime, please be sure to review the latest Q&As related to the deal. Thanks again for your ongoing commitment as we push for a strong close to Q2 while we continue to deliver on our product roadmap with upcoming releases of Qlik Sense^® 3.0, Qlik^® NPrinting 17.1 and updates to Qlik^® DataMarket.

Lars Björk, CEO
