PlusServer makes two acquisitions, acquires 100% of the shares in MESH GmbH and Mainlab GmbH

Hürth (ots) - PlusServer takes another step towards the top
position in the German hosting market: PlusServer AG announces the
100 percent acquisition of MESH GmbH in Dusseldorf and Mainlab GmbH
in Frankfurt. As a result PlusServer achieved a leading position in
the German managed hosting market. In addition, the acquisitions
allow PlusServer to expand its offering into managed colocation and
cloud services. The two transaction increase PlusServer's revenue by
an eight-figure sum.

"Like every company, MESH not only wants to maintain its standards
both for customers and employees, but to continually improve them.
With PlusServer as our 100 percent shareholders, we can take
advantage of the support of a strong financial partner and
experienced hosting provider, which will continuously drive the
development of our company", explains Claudia Gharavi, who will
remain as CEO of MESH GmbH after the acquisition. Matthias Hennrich,
one of the two managing directors of Mainlab, adds: "As all three
companies complement each other perfectly in their respective core
competencies, there are optimal synergies and business opportunities.
There has been a long history of cooperation between PlusServer and
Mainlab, so a stronger connection was the next logical step to open
up further benefits to the customers of both companies."

Also for PlusServer's CEO Thomas Strohe the acquisition of both
companies was a logical step towards the future: "Our strategy is
clearly focused on growth", he pointed out. "As all brands benefit
from the merger, our growth strategy is optimally supported: The
PlusServer brand is complemented by the managed colocation and cloud
expertise of MESH and Mainlab. At the same time the acquired
companies benefit from our infrastructure expertise, our
award-winning data center datadock and our managed hosting
expertise."
