The rolling odometer on the Tablets.com website shows just how rapidly this industry is growing. RBC Capital Markets expects the tablet market to reach 185 million units sold in calendar 2014, up 83 percent compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 17 million units in calendar 2010. XF.com Investments, based in Missouri, has not set an asking price for the asset.
We are going to let the market determine the final sales price, said Aron Meystedt with XF.com Investments. We feel the size and growth of this industry will drive the final sales price of Tablets.com up, however, we havent set a target price yet, he added. Once a bid comes across that we feel is fair for this opportunity, we will accept it and move forward.
Recent sales have shown the true value of a category leading domain name. Toys.com, Clothes.com, Sex.com (and many unreported sales) have traded hands for 7 and 8 figure sums. Recently, Citrix assigned an $18Million value to their Cloud.com domain name, which it acquired as part of an overall $200Million Cloud.com business purchase earlier this year. This further illustrates the value of a top .com in a growing tech category, Aron added. Additionally, the tablet industry is producing several major investments and buyouts, including this weeks agreement for Rakuten to pay $315Million for tablet creator Kobo.
Meystedt adds, XF.com Investments feels this is a tremendous opportunity for a company or investment group to enter a fast growing market with the top domain name to help propel their business forward.
