Over the past year, TRNR has used acquisitions as a core strategy, highlighted by the Wattbike deal and multiple updates on the Ergatta and Sportstech transactions. Prior acquisition news on Feb 18, 2026 about signing the Ergatta agreement and lifting 2026 pro forma revenue to more than $30 million drew a positive reaction. Earlier, completion and progress updates around the Wattbike and Sportstech deals produced mixed but generally constructive price responses.

Past acquisition headlines moved TRNR an average of 0.83%. Today’s 8.28% gain on closing Ergatta and reaffirming >$30M 2026 pro forma revenue is a much stronger reaction.
Acquisition news progressed from FAQs on the Wattbike and Sportstech deals in 2025 to UK approval and completion of Wattbike, then to signing and now closing the Ergatta acquisition, repeatedly tying deals to higher pro forma revenue targets.
