Salesforce Acquires Braze for $47.50 per Share
After Salesforce (CRM) announced an agreement to acquire Braze (BRZE) for $47.50 per share in cash, or a $5.66B enterprise value, Jefferies said this deal marks the third major transaction in small-to-mid cap software since the start of last week after deals for CCC Intelligent Solutions (CCC) and Varonis (VRNS). The firm calls this latest deal "the spark that could lead to a strategic takeout" of MarTech peer Klaviyo (KVYO) should there be further consolidation in the category, adding that it views an acquisition of HubSpot (HUBS) as "low likelihood," but sees a private equity buyer as a more likely acquirer if a deal were to happen. For Twilio (TWLO), the deal underscores the strategic importance of CX infrastructure, but also creates concerns that Salesforce could look to disintermediate the company for messaging or pressure it on pricing, the analyst added.
