GTCR-backed Zayo closes $465 mln acquisition of Allstream
Zayo Group Holdings Inc (NYSE: ZAYO), a portfolio company of U.S. private equity firm GTCR, has closed its acquisition of Allstream Inc, a Canadian provider of bandwidth and telecommunications services. The deal, announced late last year, saw Allstream sold to Zayo by Manitoba Telecom Services Inc (TSX: MBT) for $465 million. Zayo, a Boulder, Colorado-based communications infrastructure services business, said the Allstream buy gives it extensive intercity and metro fibre assets located throughout Canada. GTCR invested in Zayo in 2012.
