One.com, a Copenhagen, Denmark-based provider of domain names and web hosting solutions, announced that it was acquired by UK-based private equity firm Cinven.

The deal, which has financial details undisclosed, was made with the Americans from Accel-KKR. Accel-KKR had made its initial growth investment in the business in 2014.

One.com (B-one), founded in 2002 by CEO Jacob Jensen, has become one of the leading companies in Europe within the provision of domain names and sales of web hosting services. The company has more than 1,500,000 customers in 149 countries, served by more than 270 employees based in Denmark, India, the Philippines and Dubai.

The planned exit from the One.com investment bookends a very active year for Accel-KKR and its European growth capital and control buyout portfolio investments. In September 2018, Accel-KKR announced the sale of Stockholm-based Episerver to Insight Venture Partners for USD $1.16 billion.
