The company provides information about commercial real estate, such as space, tenants, sales, rates and news, in the United States, Britain and France. The commercial real estate market has been hit hard by the economic downturn, but that didn't stop CoStar from posting profit growth of more than 50 percent last year. In November, CoStar dropped a $96 million offer for a rival, saying it was "no longer financially viable" given the market.
