Network security provider Infoblox Inc. has agreed to be taken private by Vista Equity Partners in a $1.6 billion deal after a four-year run as a publicly traded company.
The transaction, at $26.50 a share in cash, represents a 73% premium to Infoblox's closing price on May 11, when media reports of Infoblox potentially being acquired were first published. It is a 16% premium to the stock's closing price on Friday.
Shares rose 15% to $26.26 in premarket trading Monday.
Santa Clara, Calif.-based Infoblox went public in 2012. In February, it purchased Internet Identity, a cybersecurity company that does business as IID, for $40 million in cash. After it gave a downbeat revenue forecast in May, the company cut 110 jobs, or 12% of its workforce in June.
Infoblox expects the Visa Equity transaction, unanimously approved by Infoblox's board, to close in its fiscal second quarter, which ends in January.
