MATTERPORT IS BEING ACQUIRED BY COSTAR AT A 212% PREMIUM
Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter
Matterport, a digital twin platform, has agreed to be acquired by CoStar, one of its customers, in a cash-and-stock deal valuing the company at approximately $1.6 billion. The acquisition is expected to enhance CoStar's real estate marketplaces by incorporating Matterport's virtual tour technology, but the deal is subject to regulatory approvals, which could potentially derail the transaction, as seen in CoStar's previous attempt to acquire RentPath.
