Tahoe Acquires E-Vergent for USD 11.2 Million

Tahoe Network Infrastructure, a fiber optic broadband investment company, has acquired E-Vergent, a Wisconsin-based regional fiber and fixed wireless provider, for USD 11.2 million. E-Vergent operates extensive fiber and fixed wireless networks in the communities south of Milwaukee and north of Chicago.




Gregory Green, Chairman of Tahoe, said: "This acquisition perfectly complements our strategy to acquire small, fiber-based internet service providers in underserved markets."

"E-Vergent has over 25 years of operating history providing fiber and cutting edge fixed wireless technology to over 1 million residential and commercial subscribers in ten counties from Milwaukee to Chicago. They deliver internet service from more than 100 towers and have successfully increased service speeds to customers in each of the last four years."

"We look forward to expanding the business with targeted consumer and business marketing campaigns to increase penetration of our existing fiber routes and have committed to investing another $ 10 million in expanding E-Vergent's regional footprint. At the same time, Tahoe will continue to look for acquisitions in the fiber space, including partnering with rural electric utilities and cities looking for a financially sound broadband partner."
