Unity is caught in a mess of Mergers & Acquisitions
Unity (U) is one of my high conviction holdings and I have been buying the stock heavily throughout the year. Lately, the stock has amassed attention as it found itself in a confusing mess of now several merger and acquisition bids. Shortly after closing their first major acquisition of Weta Digital - a $1.625 billion deal - Unity made another bid to merge with ironSource (IS) for $4.4 billion and subsequently received an unsolicited counter-offer from ironSource competitor AppLovin (APP) just a few days ago.
What the Weta acquisition means for Unity
Alongside Unity's (U) latest Q3 earnings the company sent out a press release regarding the acquisition of Weta Digital. I would like to tell you what Weta Digital is, what the specifics of the deal are and what it might mean for Unity going forward.
