pHow much did GENBAND pay for NextPoint? The unanswered question still remains, but sources say GENBAND put out a whole lot of stock to add the company to its portfolio. nbsp;Exact terms of the deal and the precise valuation GENBAND put on NextPoint are still unknown, but the phrase significant dilution was used to describe the amount of stock issued for what was the number two player in the SBC market./p
pGENBAND had made no secret it was shopping for SBC and DPI technologies and preferably wanted a company with the number one or number two position in the market place. The purchase of NextPoint, the joining of NexTone and ReefPoint, took the biggest available SBC player available.nbsp;/p
pBut did GENBAND pay too much for the company? NextPoint’s original piece parts received at least $100 million in venture capital.nbsp;It is not known if GENBAND got a discount on the purchase price given the poor state of the economy, or if it had to pay close to list in stock. From what we’re hearing, it sounds like little quarter was given for a lower price.nbsp;/p
