DealerSocket Inc. to Acquire Inventory+ from Dealertrack®
Expands product line and gives customers more ways to boost efficiency and profitability
SAN CLEMENTE, Calif. & Lake Success, N.Y.—(BUSINESS WIRE)—August 20, 2015—DealerSocket Inc. and Dealertrack Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRAK) today announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement under which DealerSocket will acquire Dealertrack’s Inventory+ business in an all-cash transaction for approximately $55 million.
Under the terms of the agreement, Dealertrack’s Inventory+ suite of inventory management solutions, including its AAX product in the U.S. and Canada, as well as its eCarlist websites, will be acquired by DealerSocket. Inventory+ helps dealers centralize and standardize the inventory management process, gain data-driven insights, and maximize profitability.
“DealerSocket is extremely excited to acquire and work side-by-side with the employees and customers of the Inventory+ suite of products,” said Jonathan Ord, CEO DealerSocket. “The employee base will be a welcome addition to the DealerSocket family and we believe the combination of DealerSocket websites, CRM and other products with the Inventory+ product line will be a big benefit to dealers. We are excited to continue to expand the ways in which we deliver powerful solutions to our customers.”
DealerSocket’s acquisition of Dealertrack’s Inventory+ business and Dealertrack’s acquisition by Cox Automotive, Inc. are both expected to be completed by the end of the third quarter of 2015, subject to regulatory approval. Dealertrack’s Canadian Tradetracker product and Central Dispatch are not part of the transaction with DealerSocket.
“As we work to complete our transaction with Cox Automotive, DealerSocket’s acquisition of our Inventory+ business is a great result for our Inventory+ employees, customers, and our company as a whole,” said Mark O'Neil, chairman and chief executive officer of Dealertrack. “Seamlessly transitioning our Inventory+ team members and customers to DealerSocket is our top priority.”
DealerSocket’s acquisition of Inventory+ is contingent upon approval by the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) in connection with the DOJ’s review of the pending acquisition of Dealertrack by Cox Automotive. Dealertrack, DealerSocket and Cox Automotive are working cooperatively and expeditiously with the DOJ in connection with its review process.
