Bending Spoons announced a new $330 million investment from Berkshire Hathaway, increasing its ownership stake in the technology company to 4%.
The investment follows Berkshire Hathaway’s $600 million investment in Bending Spoons during the company’s July 2026 initial public offering. The latest transaction strengthens the relationship between the two companies and gives Bending Spoons additional financial flexibility as it continues to evaluate acquisition opportunities.
The investment is being completed through a private placement in which Bending Spoons will issue 10 million ordinary shares to Berkshire Hathaway at $33 per share. The transaction remains subject to customary closing conditions.
Bending Spoons said its M&A pipeline remains strong and that the additional capital will support its broader financing strategy as the company pursues attractive acquisition opportunities. Its business model centers on acquiring digital businesses, implementing operational transformations and ongoing optimizations, expanding earnings, and reinvesting the resulting capital into additional acquisitions.
The company has pursued this acquisition-driven strategy for more than a decade and has not sold a material business to date. Bending Spoons believes its focus on operational efficiency and long-term ownership enables it to create sustainable growth across acquired companies while continuing to compound capital through additional investments.
The latest Berkshire Hathaway investment comes just months after Bending Spoons went public and represents a significant additional commitment from one of its existing shareholders. The companies said the transaction reflects confidence in Bending Spoons’ team, platform, acquisition strategy, and long-term growth potential.
