Sustainability RegTech company Diginex announced a definitive agreement to acquire carbon measurement, reporting and reduction software provider PlanA.earth GmbH (Plan A), in a move aimed at expanding its capabilities to provide end-to-end ESG reporting and sustainability solutions.
As part of the agreement, Diginex will pay total consideration of €55 million (USD$64 million), including €55 million in shares and €3 million in cash, in exchange for 100% of the equity of Plan A. Diginex had announced a non-binding agreement for the acquisition in December 2025. As a result of the transaction, Diginex said that it will welcome Visa and Deutsche Bank as new shareholders.
Founded by CEO Lubomila Jordanova in 2017, Germany-based Plan A provides a SaaS platform focused on corporate carbon accounting, decarbonization, and reporting, enabling companies to easily collect carbon data, measure carbon footprint, set science-based targets, report progress to stakeholders, and create a comprehensive decarbonization plan. The company’s platform is compliant with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol and Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), and includes clients such as BMW, Deutsche Bank, Visa, and Trivago.
Jordanova said:
“For too long, the market has remained deeply fragmented, forcing businesses to manage disparate, siloed solutions for supply chain transparency, ESG reporting, carbon accounting, and decarbonization. By unifying Plan A’s high-precision decarbonization technology with Diginex’s RegTech and regulatory expertise, we will be able to deliver a single, sophisticated platform that transforms fragmented data into measurable climate impact and clear financial ROI.”
According to the companies, the new acquisition will combine Diginex’s ESG reporting capabilities with Plan A’s carbon accounting and decarbonization technology, enabling the ability to offer a scaled, integrated sustainability platform designed to link regulatory reporting, value-chain emissions, and decarbonization strategy, in addition to supporting Diginex in deepening its European footprint, while helping Plan A to accelerate growth across Asia and North America.
In a statement announcing the transaction, Diginex said:
“We believe the Sustainability RegTech industry is at a pivotal inflection point. Business enterprises are facing an unprecedented convergence of regulatory, investor and customer expectations, including tightening climate-disclosure requirements, net-zero commitments and growing demand for traceable Scope 3 data and credible, auditable decarbonization plans. We expect that Diginex’s offering will be able to serve this demand.”
The acquisition marks the latest in a series of recently announced transactions by Diginex, including the recent acquisition of supply chain human rights advisory The Remedy Project, the acquisition of ESG data company Matter from Nasdaq in October, and of supply chain risk monitoring platform Findings in August.
Miles Pelham, Chairman of Diginex, said:
“The acquisition of Plan A marks a transformative milestone in delivering the most advanced, user-friendly sustainability platform available. The synergy between our ESG tools and Plan A’s carbon expertise will empower businesses worldwide to navigate increasingly complex regulations and achieve meaningful data-driven progress toward sustainability goals and financial objectives.”
