Bending Spoons announces it will acquire Airtable in an all-cash transaction valued at about $1.285 billion to $1.3 billion, according to reporting across outlets. The deal is described as Bending Spoons’ first acquisition after its initial public offering. Multiple sources characterize the transaction price as roughly $1.3 billion and note that it is structured as a cash purchase rather than a stock-based exchange. The articles reviewed do not provide additional operational details such as timing for closing, regulatory approvals, or specific terms beyond the stated valuation and cash structure. Hacker News similarly frames the announcement as Bending Spoons’ first post-IPO deal and repeats the headline figure for the Airtable acquisition. Overall, the consistent points are that Bending Spoons is buying Airtable, the value is approximately $1.3 billion, and the payment is all cash, with the transaction marking the company’s first acquisition following its IPO.
