Goldman Sachs commented on salesforce.com (NYSE: CRM) following the deal to acquire Buddy Media.

The firm notes the acquisition expands the SFDC's suite of offerings into a large, adjacent market area.

The social CRM market is expected to reach $1 billion by year end, according to Gartner.

"Management expects Buddy Media to add $20-$25mn in revenues in 2HFY13 and noted that the high end of this range is slightly less than its 2011 sales. This suggests a more than doubling of Buddy Media revenues in 2012," the analyst notes.

The firm maintained their Buy rating and price target of $190.00
