Our take
Tucows had dedicated itself, and its subsidiaries, to ensuring the internet stays open, accessible, and connected. The company is made up of three subsidiaries, Tucows Domains (the world’s second-largest domain registrar and reseller), Ting Internet (high-speed fiber internet provider), and Wavelo (telecom SaaS for CSPs).
Tucows’ technology supports hundreds of thousands of companies around the globe, as such, the company has seen substantial growth over the last few years, rapidly expanding operations into new markets in conjunction with the optimization and development of its award-winning services. The company announced a $40 million buyback program of its common stock which ran from February 2023 to February 2024. It hopes to see its growth continue to flourish over the coming years, and it seems well set to do so.
