Salesforce Announces Agreement to Acquire Fin (Formerly Intercom) For $3.6B

NYSE: CRM | USD 165.89 | Sector Perform | Price Target USD 210.00

Sentiment: Neutral

• Before the open on Monday (06/15) Salesforce announced it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Fin (formerly known

as Intercom), an AI-powered customer agent platform for ~$3.6B, subject to customary purchase price adjustments.

○Fin's core product is its AI Agent, which resolves complex customer queries end-to-end across multiple channels including

live chat, email, WhatsApp, SMS, phone, and Slack. The agent is powered by Fin's proprietary AI model called Apex, purpose-

built for customer support and claims industry-leading resolution rates vs. frontier models.

○With this acquisition, Salesforce aims to strengthen its Agentforce platform (hit $1.2B in ARR in F1Q27; +205% YoY) by

adding Fin's fast-to-deploy, packaged AI agent capabilities to better serve SMB and mid-market customers. Fin's AI Agent,

powered by its proprietary Apex model, has demonstrated real-world traction, resolving an average of 76% of support volume

end-to-end across a global base of 30,000+ customers.

○The transaction is expected to close in F4Q27, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory clearances.

○Based on the expected closing timing, Salesforce confirmed no change to its FY27 financial guidance (previously announced

May 27, 2026). The transaction will also not impact Salesforce's capital return program.
