Robo.ai to Acquire Neurovia in $100 Million All-Stock Deal as Shares Jump 70% Premarket

Overview

• Robo.ai said it will buy 100% of Neurovia for $100 million paid in stock, and its AIIO shares rose about 70% in premarket trading after the announcement.
• The company said it will issue Class B shares with a strict lock-up that bars any sales for three years and then releases gradually over five more years.
• Market reports said the consideration equals 149,097,957 Class B shares and described no releases in the first four years, a small discrepancy from the press release.
• Reporters said Robo.ai signed the agreement through a subsidiary and expects closing on or before June 16, 2026, with Neurovia registered in the British Virgin Islands and the deal subject to customary conditions.
• Robo.ai said Neurovia’s video compression and edge computing will help build a global video-data backbone for robotaxis, drones, smart cities, and other real-world machines that rely on live video to sense and act.
