Hm, is this good or bad? Usually acquisions (and IPOs) are bad for such services because the pressure towards profitability increases. In this case, it is at least a european (german) buyer and not american or chinese.
At best neutral, but apparently all the original Threema founders left already in 2024, and this PE firm is some sort of holding to obfuscate the real investors, which is not a good sign at all.
