Keep. Passes WP:GNG. Do press releases normally list competitors? That kind of info (the lack of which was motivation to nominate other other articles for AfD) is already present and sourced in this one. And it's obviously not sourced from press releases... The article is a bit disorganized though. There is even post-acquisition coverage [1][2] as well plenty before [3][4][5][6][7] [8] [9] [10] and that's in just one publication. The company didn't sell for nearly half a billion for nothing. Are you going to AfD Linksys next? (they were bought for about the same amount.)
