Neustar to Acquire Evolving Systems' Numbering Solutions

Neustar will acquire the assets and certain liabilities of the Numbering Solutions business from Evolving Systems for approximately $39.0 million in cash.

This combination extends the breadth of Neustar's Carrier Services portfolio, providing a strong foundation for our customers to meet their current needs and allowing them to harness the power of IP into the future." http://www.neustar.biz
