Cox Enterprises Inc. unit Cox TMI Inc. is buying San Bruno-based Adify Corp. for an undisclosed amount.
The deal is expected to close in May.

"Adify's commitment to customer service and innovation in powering vertical advertising networks for its customers has been key to its success and is a great match for Cox, a company that has served the advertising community for over a hundred years through its various media platforms," said John Dyer, executive vice president of finance at Cox Enterprises.
