Indian ad-tech firm Affle has agreed to acquire Israeli ad-tech company Perion Network for $420 million. Perion shareholders will receive $11.70 per share in cash, a 34.5% premium. Perion held $228.3 million in cash and securities as of September 30, effectively lowering the net deal price. The agreement includes a go-shop period running to December 11, leaving open the possibility of a competing higher bid.
Why now: A cross-border ad-tech acquisition with a sizeable premium and an open go-shop window raises speculation about whether a rival bidder will emerge.
