Salesforce shares came under pressure as investors questioned the price of its nearly
$5.7 billion all-cash acquisition of Braze, which aims to strengthen its artificial intelligence and marketing capabilities. Salesforce offered
$47.50 per share, representing a 58% premium over Braze’s Monday closing price. The deal is intended to help businesses deliver more personalized customer experiences through Braze’s engagement platform, which serves approximately 2,770 customers.
Wall Street’s reaction has been cautious, with one analyst describing the unusually high premium as “a bit odd,” raising concerns about valuation and whether the strategic benefits justify the cost. While the acquisition could enhance Salesforce’s AI-powered marketing tools and expand its customer-engagement capabilities, investors appear wary of the substantial price tag and the potential returns on the investment.
