Mobile ad-tech company Affle has agreed to acquire Perion in an all-cash deal valued at $420 million. Perion operates across digital advertising, including search monetization and CTV. The transaction, if completed, would combine Affle's mobile-focused ad stack with Perion's multi-channel advertising business.
Why it matters
Consolidation like this reshapes which independent ad-tech players remain, and can affect pricing and competition across mobile, search and CTV advertising.
