$18 Million Value to Cloud.com Domain Name — Citrix Assigns

Firm puts domain name on the books at a huge sum.

How much is the cloud.com domain name worth?

As stated by Citrix’s accountants, it’s $18 million.

The firm purchased Cloud.com (the business) for $200 million plus earlier this year.

George Kirikos just noticed that the firm is amortizing the domain itself with a value of $18 million.

Now this is just an accounting number, so I’m not sure the domain was worth that much when it wasn’t attached to a business. But it’s still an interesting valuation for a great domain in a growing business.
