Business Combination Agreement-Stratasys’ subsidiary MakerBot
On May 12, 2022, Stratasys Ltd. (“we,” “us,” “Stratasys” or the “Company”) announced our entry into a definitive agreement pursuant to which the Company’s subsidiary, MakerBot, will undergo a business combination with Ultimaker, an entity backed by NPM Capital, to form a new entity. The new combined company will offer a comprehensive desktop 3D printing solution set of hardware, software and materials. Under the terms of the agreement, NPM Capital will contribute Ultimaker’s assets, invest $15.4 million, and own 54.4% of the combined company, while Stratasys will contribute MakerBot’s assets, invest $47 million, and own 45.6% of the combined company (all subject to adjustments in the definitive documentation). The combined $62.4 million of committed financial backing is intended to fuel ecosystem innovation and further expand customer reach and applications.
The transaction is subject to the receipt of regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.
