Nano Dimension has agreed to acquire Markforged for $115 million in cash.
The 3D-printing company said Wednesday that it would pay $5 a share for the additive manufacturing firm, representing a 72% premium to Tuesday's closing price.
Shares surged 75% to $4.78 in early trading.
Nano Dimension said the purchase, along with the acquisition of Desktop Metal in July, is poised to make it an industry leader in digital manufacturing with a strong balance sheet and $475 million in cash and cash equivalents.
