[QUOTE="Admin, post: 62583, member: 1"] Turtle Beach is acquiring Performance Designed Products [PDP] in a $118 million deal that brings together two major third-party gaming accessory manufactuers. In a release announcing the merger, Turtle Beach said that it expects the acquisition to "provide additional scale and create future development opportunities." Turtle Beach says it expects the deal to drive 2024 net revenue in the range of $370 million to $380 million. "Acquiring PDP at an attractive valuation multiple relative to the trading multiples of peers implies potential significant upside in market value for the combined company," Turtle Beach said. As part of the deal, Los Angeles-based private equity firm Diversis Capital, currently PDP's major owner, will become Turtle Beach's largest shareholder at 16 percent. Turtle Beach also announced that it is appointing Cris Keirn, who has served as interim CEO since July 2023, as the company's CEO going forward.
