APPLOVIN TO ACQUIRE MOBILE APP MEASUREMENT MARKET LEADER ADJUST TO EXPAND ITS GLOBAL TECHNOLOGY PLATFORM

AppLovin, a global technology platform that provides developers a unified set of tools to grow their businesses, announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Adjust, a global mobile app measurement and marketing company. Adjust will retain its unique brand and culture and continue to operate as a distinct company. Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed and the closing of the acquisition is subject to customary (stockholder and regulatory) approvals.

As one of the largest app marketers in the world, AppLovin brings depth of knowledge and expertise to Adjust and helps further innovate the attribution and analytics product suite it has successfully built.
