WOW!, a leading provider of high-speed Internet, digital cable TV, and phone services in the US, announced that it is acquiring NuLink for USD$53 million. NuLink is a local provider of high-speed Internet, digital cable TV, and phone services to residential and business customers. 

NuLink will add 34,000 homes passed to WOW!'s existing network which passes over 3 million residential, business and wholesale consumers. NuLink, a spin-off from Newnan utilities in 2008, upgraded its network in 2011 to provide a full suite of Internet, cable TV and phone services.

Denver-based WOW! offers its services in smaller markets mostly in the Midwest including Alabama, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Ohio, Michigan and Tennessee.

We plan to continue investing in the local network infrastructure to bring even faster Internet to residential and business customers with speeds as high as 1 Gbps. All of us at WOW! are committed to providing an outstanding customer experience and we look forward to serving the community.

We are excited to become a part of the WOW! family. Since our start in 1997, we have continued to invest in the NuLink system and joining WOW! is the right next step for the Newnan community.
