Circle Valued at $9B in New Transaction Terms Agreed with Concord Acquisition Corp
Concord Acquisition Corp (CND) & Circle terminated the existing business combination agreement and entered into a new agreement that values Circle at an enterprise value of $9B. This is 2x the original valuation of $4.5B from back in July 2021
The increase in value reflects improvements in Circle's financial outlook and competitive position – particularly the growth and market share of USDC, one of the fastest growing dollar digital currencies.
