Sources have told Bloomberg that Alphabet\u2019s potential deal to acquire HubSpot has been shelved. \u201cParties didn\u2019t get to due-diligence stage in deal talks,\u201d said the report.<\/p>\n

Early rumors about the talks seemed to solidify at the end of May, when CNBC\u2019s David Faber reported the companies continued to have discussions and an all-stock deal was on the table.<\/p>\n

Why we care. <\/strong>This story has been running for three months plus. Rumors that Alphabet is in talks to acquire HubSpot (April<\/a>); Alphabet is definitely in talks to acquire HubSpot (May<\/a>); no, it\u2019s not going to happen (July). In the meantime, HubSpot users have either been wondering what it would mean for a central part of their marketing stack, or maybe just ignoring it all.<\/p>\n

Whatever the truth of any of the rumors, HubSpot\u2019s shares have been up and down like a yo-yo at each twist of the story. Maybe things will settle down now?<\/p>\n

Below is MarTech\u2019s coverage from May 9, 2024, when HubSpot released its earnings and more reports surfaced of an Alphabet-HubSpot deal:<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

HubSpot\u2019s earnings and revenue beat expectations for the ninth consecutive quarter amid more reports of a sale to Google\u2019s parent company Alphabet.<\/p>\n

The Cambridge, Mass., digital marketing vendor reported earnings at $1.68 a share and revenue of $617.4 million for the first quarter of 2024. The earnings are up 40% from the same period last year and a 23% increase in revenue. Analysts had expected HubSpot earnings of $1.50 on sales of $598 million.<\/p>\n

The company\u2019s stock price, which fell slightly following Wednesday\u2019s earnings report, bounced back Thursday morning on news of acquisition talks between HubSpot and Alphabet. Citing unnamed sources, Bloomberg reported that negotiations were \u201cprogressing,\u201d although it provided no details.\u00a0News of the discussions<\/a>\u00a0between the two companies first surfaced in April.<\/p>\n

Over the past 12 months, HubSpot shares have gained about 32%, giving the company a market value of $30 billion.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
