U.S. cyberspace defense company AIS Anywhere has been acquired by Blue Cloud in a stock exchange worth approximately 730 crores Indian rupees.
Blue Cloud Softech Solutions Limited, a leading provider of secure solutions for defence and enterprise digital transformation, has announced a significant expansion with the acquisition of AIS Anywhere, a technology solutions provider based in New Jersey, USA. The acquisition, valued at approximately USD 90 million, was completed through a 100% share swap transaction [1].
The transaction structure involved Blue Cloud issuing 31.68 crore equity shares at a premium of ₹22.06 per share, in exchange for AIS Anywhere's 6.4 crore shares, with a swap ratio of 4.95:1 [1]. This move strengthens Blue Cloud's global presence, particularly in the U.S., and integrates advanced cybersecurity and data analytics capabilities to broaden their digital offerings [1].
AIS Anywhere specializes in artificial intelligence, data analytics, Internet of Things solutions, enterprise services, and cybersecurity. The acquisition aligns with Blue Cloud's strategy to establish a stronger presence in global markets, particularly the United States [1].
For AIS Anywhere, becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary under Blue Cloud provides access to broader international markets and resources, likely accelerating its growth and innovation within AI and cybersecurity domains [1]. The acquisition marks Blue Cloud's accelerated entry into the U.S. cybersecurity market by leveraging AIS Anywhere's 2024 revenues of USD 83.69 million [1].
Blue Cloud currently operates across eight countries, including India, the UK, UAE, Israel, France, Singapore, and Tanzania [1]. The acquisition complements its portfolio by incorporating AIS Anywhere’s advanced cybersecurity solutions, positioning the combined entity for enhanced innovation and market expansion [1].
Krishna Babu Vankineni, the Managing Director of Blue Cloud, described the AIS Anywhere acquisition as a "transformative milestone" [1]. The acquisition is expected to unlock new revenue streams and enhance Blue Cloud's ability to serve global clients [1].
As of 12.30 pm today, Blue Cloud shares were trading at ₹33.05, up by ₹1.51 or 4.79 per cent on the BSE [2]. The acquisition aims to make AIS Anywhere a wholly owned subsidiary as Blue Cloud targets expansion in the U.S. cybersecurity market [1].
