“This transaction advances our strategy to simplify the portfolio, sharpen focus on our core businesses, and strengthen our financial foundation.

About the Transaction
Conduent Transportation’s Public Transit business has long provided fare collection systems, fleet management systems, payment and revenue management platforms, and other hardware‑enabled mobility systems for major agencies, and joining Modaxo would add those capabilities to a portfolio that already includes transit software, passenger information, and mobility solutions companies.
For transit agencies, the deal could mean greater integration between fare payment platforms, operations software, and rider-facing technologies across Modaxo-owned businesses.
The acquisition also reflects continued consolidation within the mobility technology sector, as companies seek to offer broader end-to-end transit and transportation platforms spanning fare collection, scheduling, dispatch, analytics, and passenger communications.
Conduent officials said the agreement does not include its Tolling business line.
Additional details of the transaction are outlined in Conduent’s 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
