According to a source familiar with the negotiations, Noname Security, a #cybersecurity business that safeguards APIs, is in advanced talks to be acquired by Akamai Technologies for $500 million. Noname is based in Palo Alto but has Israeli roots. It was co-founded in 2020 by Oz Golan and Shay Levi. The firm recently had a valuation of $1 billion, having raised $220 million from venture capitalists and $135 million in a Series C round led by Lightspeed and Georgian in December 2021. The acquisition would be for cash as it stands, the individual added, even if the sale price represents a substantial markdown from that valuation. The #agreement is not binding and may be altered or not proceed at all. The Syndicate Group, Cyberstarts, ForgePoint, Next47, and Insight Partners are among the other investors that have supported Noname. Even if Noname's prospective selling price is just half of its previous private valuation, early investors will still #benefit significantly from the sale. In the meanwhile, the agreement should enable later-stage investors, especially those who contributed after the previous round, to receive a complete return on their #investment, if not the profit they had anticipated during the prosperous days of 2021 when capital was pouring and values were high. According to the source, the acquisition values the business at about 15X its recurring yearly sales. If the deal goes through, Noname's 200 workers should transfer to Akamai. Akamai declined to respond. According to a Noname Security representative, "We generally refrain from commenting on rumors or speculation," was told. According to a January article from The Information, Noname was attempting to obtain capital at a #significantly lower valuation in a second funding round. Calcalist, an Israeli news site, said in February that Noname was in talks with other possible purchasers, including Akamai. When the U.S. Federal Reserve hiked interest rates, the values of many venture capital-backed firms that had raised money during the height of the #IT boom plummeted. Many are now in what's known in the financial sector as a dual-track process searching for buyers and a fresh round of capital at the same time. After the IPO market was shut down for more than a year, many later-stage venture #capitalists are now searching for liquidity. In the venture business, the prevailing consensus is that M&A activity will pick up in the off-season if strong initial public offerings (IPOs) don't rebound quickly. www.tycoonstory.com #Cybersecurity #MandA #Acquisition #NonameSecurity #Akamai #Funding #VentureCapital #Startups #TechAcquisition #ExitStrategy #InvestmentBanking #CyberSecurityMarket Akamai Technologies Noname Security Moshe Zilberstein Frank Mild Sergei Vorobiov Adi Koch Amnon Ben Zion William NONJU Amir Wollman Ofir Aharoni Pun Kok (PK) Lim Eden Vizanski Vivek Patidar Mridul kumar Singh Sakshi Bhate P Sai Manideep
