B Riley Analyst On GoDaddy's Debt

Speaking to Benzinga, B Riley & Co Analyst Sameet Sinha said that GoDaddy Inc GDDY was a great market leader.

Addressing the company's debt load, Sinha felt that it was due to a leveraged acquisition of the company.

While GoDaddy had been "saddled" with debt, Sinha did not think that the company took on debt to operate the business, rather, it had to do with its acquisition by private equity players.

Shares of GoDaddy recently traded at $26.25, up 31.25 percent.
