Eargo to Be Taken Private by Patient Square Capital
Mentioned: EAR

By Dean Seal

Eargo has agreed to be acquired and privatized by the investment firm Patient Square Capital for $2.55 a share.

The hearing aid company said Monday the deal represents a 52% premium over its closing share price on Friday.

Eargo's board approved the transaction after it was unanimously recommended by a special committee.

The deal is expected to close in the first quarter of 2024. Upon closing, Eargo's shares will no longer be publicly traded.

The acquisition comes less than a week after Eargo said its devices will now be sold at over 500 Best Buy locations.
