Bending Spoons to Acquire Vimeo in $1.38 Billion All-Cash Deal

The all-cash pact offers $7.85 per share, with a Q4 close pending required approvals.

Overview

  • Vimeo’s board unanimously approved the agreement following a strategic review and characterized the outcome as delivering certain value to shareholders.
  • The offer represents a 91% premium to Vimeo’s 60-day volume-weighted average price as of Sept. 9, 2025.
  • Upon closing, Vimeo will be taken private and its shares will be delisted from public exchanges.
  • Bending Spoons signaled plans to invest across creator and enterprise products, expand market reach, and continue rolling out AI-enabled features after the deal closes.
  • Vimeo does not expect to hold a third-quarter earnings call and will issue written results during the pre-close period while the company prepares proxy materials for a shareholder vote.
