with Covisint. Freemarkets has been profitable for a while now. Also Ariba was slightly profitable in 2003. "Ariba, a Wall Street darling during the B2B boom, said it will pay 2.25 shares of its stock for every share of FreeMarkets, as well as $2 in cash. The deal is expected to close by the end of the second quarter, pending shareholder and regulatory approval."
