Kin & Carta PLC - London-based business software consultancy - Expects takeover by Valtech to be effective by the end of April.

In December, Kin & Carta accepted a bid proposal from Valtech, valuing the company at £239 million, or 130 pence per share. This trumped a previously agreed approach from Apax Partners which valued Kin & Carta at 120p per share.
