Neither IBM nor Apptio have commented on the matter.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The acquisition aligns with IBM&#8217;s recent trend of software purchases like Turbonomic in 2021 and Red Hat in 2019.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">IBM is expected to report Q2 earnings next month, with analysts looking for a slight rise in revenue but a drop in earnings per share to $2.01 from last year&#8217;s $2.31<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"InvestingPro | Know Market Moves\" src=\"https:\/\/ifintechworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/picf6484be61b2c3d82a5748cd35a784601.jpg\" alt=\"InvestingPro | Know Market Moves\"><\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Eli Lilly to acquire Dice Therapeutics for $2.4B<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Dice Therapeutics (NASDAQ:) shares jumped more than 37% on Tuesday after Eli Lilly (NYSE:) said it has agreed to acquire the biotech company for $48 per share in cash, an aggregate of approximately $2.4B.<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Amazon&#8217;s iRobot acquisition to face EU antitrust investigation<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Amazon&#8217;s (NASDAQ:) $1.7B acquisition of iRobot (NASDAQ:) is set to undergo an EU antitrust investigation, Reuters reported on Thursday. According to the sources familiar with the matter, the European Commission is planning to undertake a four-month investigation into the deal after the end of its preliminary review acquisition on July 6. Reuters sources suggest Amazon may yet convince the EU of the deal&#8217;s pro-competitive nature, but the odds are high against it.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">iRobot shares fell around 15% this week.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Another report on Thursday led to a surge in Ocado (LON:) share prices by around 43%. The catalyst was rumors of a potential takeover by Amazon. The Times suggested that Amazon, in collaboration with investment banks JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs, could make an offer, valuing Ocado at around \u00a36.6B ($7.67B).<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Stratasys says 3D Systems&#8217; offer not a &#8216;Superior Proposal&#8217; to Desktop Metal agreement <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Stratasys (NASDAQ:) announced that its Board of Directors determined that the May 30 unsolicited non-binding indicative proposal from 3D Systems (NYSE:) to acquire Stratasys does not constitute a \u201cSuperior Proposal\u201d and does not provide a basis upon which to enter into discussions with 3D Systems, pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement with Desktop Metal Inc (NYSE:).<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Stratasys saw a surge in shares prices since the start of the month after it announced it had received an unsolicited cash-and-stock offer from 3D Systems to acquire the company: $7.50 in cash and 1.2507 newly issued 3D Systems shares per ordinary Stratasys share.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Jeffrey Graves, CEO of 3D Systems, voiced his disappointment over Stratasys&#8217; decision, stating that they remain undeterred in the belief that a transaction between 3D Systems and Stratasys on the terms proposed constitutes a \u2018Superior Proposal.\u2019<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Get ready to supercharge your investment strategy with our exclusive discounts.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Don&#8217;t miss out on this limited-time opportunity to access cutting-edge tools, real-time market analysis, and expert insights.
