On October 22, Salesforce.com rose 3.05% in Regular Trading, trading at $249.12/share, with turnover of $451 million.
The move was associated with the company’s agreement to acquire AI-driven marketing platform Braze for about $5.66 billion in enterprise value, a cash deal priced at $47.50 per share and representing a 58% premium to Braze’s prior close.
The transaction is expected to close in Salesforce.com fiscal 2028, subject to shareholder approval and regulatory clearance. The company said the deal does not change its fiscal 2027 guidance. Recent market commentary has framed the acquisition as a signal that beaten-down software names may be shifting from AI pressure to M&A-driven revaluation, supporting expectations for broader short covering across the application software group.
