Verio Goes Shopping

As expected, Verio's [VRIO] $250 million in private financing was quickly followed by an acquisition (CT, 7/13). The Internet service provider bought digitalNation, a Web hosting firm, for $100 million in cash. That's more than 10 times digitalNation's annual revenues, but such premiums are all too common for Web hosting firms. digitalNation's projected annual revenues are $9.4 million. Verio's private financing deal will leave it with enough cash for a second purchase.


That last line stood out. To me anyway.
