ServiceNow in Advanced Talks to Buy Armis for Up to $7 Billion, Reports Say

Reports of talks knocked ServiceNow shares lower, with investors citing price plus integration risk.

Overview

  • Bloomberg reports the companies are negotiating a deal that could be announced this week, though the talks remain unconfirmed and could still collapse, and both firms declined comment.
  • If completed, the purchase would be ServiceNow’s largest acquisition to date.
  • Armis provides real-time security and visibility for connected and unmanaged devices across industries and says it serves more than 40% of the Fortune 100.
  • The company surpassed $300 million in annual recurring revenue after crossing $200 million less than a year earlier and raised $435 million in November at a $6.1 billion valuation while eyeing a 2026–2027 IPO.
  • ServiceNow shares fell sharply Monday as analysts flagged the reported price relative to Armis’s revenue and execution risk, including a downgrade from KeyBanc to underweight with a $775 target.
