Stingray Group Acquires TuneIn for $175 Million, Expanding Its Digital Audio Empire

In a move signaling renewed interest in the digital radio sector, Canadian media and technology company Stingray Group has acquired internet radio service TuneIn for $175 million. The deal includes $150 million in cash at closing and up to $25 million in deferred payment, financed through Stingray’s renewed credit facility.

The acquisition marks a major shift in the online streaming landscape. Once valued near $500 million, TuneIn was a pioneer in internet radio streaming, known for bringing traditional radio stations, talk shows, sports broadcasts, and music to a global digital audience. Unlike subscription-heavy services such as Spotify or Apple Music, TuneIn built its business around live radio content accessible across devices, including smart speakers, connected cars, and mobile apps.

Founded in 2002, TuneIn grew to over 75 million monthly active listeners across more than 100 countries and over 200 connected platforms. However, the company faced increasing pressure as consumer listening habits evolved toward on-demand music and podcasts. Despite efforts to diversify into ad-free subscriptions and audiobooks, TuneIn’s growth slowed amid intense competition and changing user expectations.

For Stingray, the deal represents an opportunity to expand beyond its traditional media and music services. Based in Montreal, Stingray operates television music channels, radio stations, and ad-supported streaming platforms. Acquiring TuneIn gives the company instant global reach, access to a vast listener base, and valuable relationships with automakers and device manufacturers. TuneIn’s integration in over 50 car infotainment systems could position Stingray as a stronger player in the in-car audio experience, a fast-growing battleground for streaming companies.

The acquisition values TuneIn at approximately 1.6 times its projected 2025 sales of $110 million and about six times its adjusted EBITDA of $30 million. For a company that once attracted big-name investors and partnerships, the sale price highlights how crowded and capital-intensive the streaming audio market has become.

Still, Stingray appears to be betting on a rebound in digital radio and live content consumption. As advertisers look for alternatives to traditional broadcast and major streaming services, TuneIn’s platform offers diverse ad inventory and a global audience. The acquisition could also help Stingray cross-promote its other media properties, while using TuneIn’s distribution network to scale faster internationally.

The deal is expected to close by year-end, pending customary approvals. Post-acquisition, the TuneIn brand will remain active, while Stingray forecasts that combined revenue will exceed $400 million annually.

For small-cap investors, the move underscores how mid-sized media companies can leverage acquisitions to compete in a market dominated by giants. By acquiring undervalued digital assets like TuneIn, firms such as Stingray can tap into niche but loyal audiences, diversify revenue streams, and strengthen their foothold in the evolving audio ecosystem.

If successful, this acquisition could set the stage for renewed investor confidence in small and mid-cap media technology plays — especially those with the scale and strategy to bridge traditional and digital listening experiences.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Q3 hits headwind. Conduent reported Q3 revenue of $767 million and adj. EBITDA of $40 million, modestly below our estimates of $794 million and $44 million. While sales in the Commercial segment lagged, Transportation delivered strong revenue growth (+15% Y/Y) and Government margins expanded to 25.6%. Totally company adj. EBITDA margins improved 110 bps year-over-year, underscoring steady operational progress.

Pipeline growing. Overall new business activity was solid with the qualified ACV pipeline rising 9% Y/Y to $3.4 billion, led by Government and Transportation momentum. While the Commercial segment struggled to close sales, we believe a streamlined go-to-market model and early software-licensing traction should support 2026 revenue stabilization.

Solid Q3 Results. The company reported Q3 revenue of $59.9 million and adj. EBITDA of $9.5 million, both of which surpassed our estimates of $54.0 million and $2.6 million, respectively. Additionally, the strong results surpassed the high end of company issued guidance, of $51.0 million to $58.0 million in revenue and $2.0 million to $6.0 million in adj. EBITDA. Furthermore, the company hit an important milestone, recording net income for the first time since 2021.

Improved operating structure. Over the past several years, the company has significantly lowered its break-even point from $900 million in 2022 to $180 million in 2025, largely through SG&A optimization and the elimination of Multi Layer sales costs. The new model offers enhanced operating leverage, enabling profitability at lower revenue levels and providing a favorable outlook ahead of several new product releases.

Expanding Your Footprint: Strategic Opportunities in U.S. Manufacturing, Distribution & Logistics

In our first article, we established the compelling case for why now is the right time for European enterprises to pursue acquisitions in the U.S. This favorable climate is driven by a confluence of economic resilience, attractive valuations, and a welcoming policy environment. For many European companies, this is best realized by acquiring strategic assets in core industrial sectors.

This article delves into the specific operational and technological advantages awaiting European acquirers in U.S. manufacturing, distribution, and logistics. Acquiring existing U.S. assets in these sectors provides a potent pathway to not only immediate market entry but also the creation of a more resilient, efficient, and technologically advanced global enterprise.

Immediate Market Access and Scalability

A U.S. acquisition provides European firms with far more than just a new address; it offers direct and rapid access to the world’s largest and most dynamic consumer market. For companies in manufacturing, distribution, and logistics, this means inheriting established production facilities and warehouse networks, a mature supply base, and a ready-made customer roster.

Rather than the long, costly process of greenfield site development, an acquisition allows you to bypass a significant time lag and immediately start serving customers from a U.S. base. For instance, a European manufacturer of industrial equipment could acquire a U.S.-based competitor with regional production facilities. This move immediately diversifies their manufacturing base and allows them to fulfill orders from domestic customers without the delays or costs of transatlantic shipping. This direct entry is a powerful engine for rapid expansion and scalability.

Another benefit of having a U.S. presence is potential access to free-trade agreements with Canada and Mexico in addition to further expansion to Latin America. According to the U.S. Census[1], the U.S. exported approximately $124.4 billion to South and Central America between January and June 2025, on track to surpass the total exports of $205.6 billion during 2024.

Building Resilient Supply Chains and Localized Production

Recent global events have highlighted the fragility of long, intricate supply chains. For European companies, a U.S. acquisition is a strategic solution for nearshoring production and distribution, reducing reliance on distant hubs and mitigating geopolitical risks. This localization effort is not merely a defensive play; it’s a proactive strategy for operational excellence.

By localizing production and distribution, European acquirers can:

  • Reduce Lead Times and Transportation Costs: Shorter distances between production facilities and end customers drastically cut down on delivery times and international shipping expenses, a critical advantage in today’s fast-paced market.
  • Optimize Inventory Management: A U.S. presence enables more flexible inventory strategies, balancing just-in-time principles with safety stock, to meet regional demand more accurately.
  • Enhance Resilience: A diversified supplier base within North America helps mitigate the impact of international trade disputes, tariffs, and shipping disruptions.

Embracing Advanced Technology and Automation

The U.S. industrial landscape is a leader in adopting advanced technologies, and an M&A transaction provides European firms with a fast track to integrate these innovations. The opportunity is to acquire not just physical assets but also the underlying technological platforms that drive efficiency and insight.

Key technologies to look for in target companies include:

  • Automation and Robotics: The logistics automation market is growing, and acquiring a company that has already invested in robotic process automation, automated guided vehicles (AGVs), or smart picking systems can immediately enhance operational efficiency.
  • Data and Analytics: Many U.S. firms leverage data analytics, IoT, and AI to optimize supply chain functions. This includes predictive maintenance in manufacturing, demand forecasting, and predictive route optimization in logistics.
  • Digital Platforms: The integration of robust Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) and Transportation Management Systems (TMS) is essential. An acquisition can provide access to these platforms, allowing European firms to enhance real-time visibility, track assets, and improve inventory control.

Driving Operational Synergies and Efficiency

Operational synergies are a primary driver of M&A value, and in the manufacturing, distribution, and logistics sectors, the opportunities for a European acquirer are substantial. A well-executed integration plan can unlock significant efficiencies by combining operations, technology, and procurement.

Potential synergies include:

  • Streamlining Processes: Standardizing operational best practices (e.g., Lean or Six Sigma principles) across both the European and U.S. entities can eliminate redundancies and improve efficiency.
  • Leveraging Combined Procurement Power: Merging purchasing functions allows the combined entity to leverage greater scale, securing better terms and pricing from suppliers.
  • Cost Rationalization: Combining distribution networks, consolidating freight, and optimizing warehousing can lead to significant cost savings and improved service levels. These improvements directly impact EBITDA and working capital, demonstrating tangible value creation.

Conclusion: Solidifying Your Global Industrial Edge

For European companies seeking to expand their global footprint, strategic M&A in the U.S. manufacturing, distribution, and logistics sectors provides a compelling and timely opportunity. These acquisitions offer a direct pathway to market entry, the creation of more resilient and efficient supply chains, and a leap forward in technological adoption. A successful transaction in these core industrial sectors is not just about growth; it’s about solidifying a global edge and building an operationally robust, future-proof enterprise.

Our next article, “Capturing Consumers and Clients: M&A Opportunities in U.S. Business Services and Retail,” will explore the unique advantages and strategies for acquiring targets in the service economy.

Third quarter results. RAIL generated third-quarter adj. net income of $7.8 million, or $0.24 per share, compared to $7.3 million, or $0.08 per share, during the prior year period.

SoftBank Sells $5.8 Billion Nvidia Stake to Fuel Expanding AI Ambitions

SoftBank Group Corp. has sold its entire stake in Nvidia Corp. for $5.83 billion, marking another major move by founder Masayoshi Son to fund his growing ambitions in artificial intelligence. The sale underscores SoftBank’s shift toward becoming a central player in the AI ecosystem—one that spans data centers, chip design, robotics, and advanced cloud infrastructure.

The decision to sell Nvidia shares comes as global investors question whether massive AI spending—expected to exceed $1 trillion by companies like Meta Platforms and Alphabet—will produce long-term profits. Despite this uncertainty, Son continues to double down on AI, redirecting proceeds into projects such as Stargate, a mega data center venture being developed in collaboration with OpenAI and Oracle Corp.

SoftBank’s U.S.-listed shares rose more than 7% following the announcement, while Nvidia’s stock slipped over 3% during trading on Tuesday. The move illustrates the shifting balance of investor sentiment as capital flows from established AI leaders toward emerging infrastructure and hardware bets.

According to SoftBank executives, the Nvidia sale was not due to concerns about the chipmaker but rather a strategic move to free up capital. Chief Financial Officer Yoshimitsu Goto emphasized that the proceeds will be used to finance new AI initiatives, though he declined to comment on whether the sector is currently in a bubble.

This is not the first time SoftBank has exited Nvidia. The company sold its previous stake in 2019, only to re-enter the stock in 2020—just before Nvidia’s meteoric rise fueled by the AI boom. By March 2025, SoftBank had quietly accumulated a $3 billion position in Nvidia, which has since surged by more than $2 trillion in market value amid the global AI frenzy.

The timing of the sale proved highly profitable for SoftBank. The company recently reported a ¥2.5 trillion ($16.2 billion) net income for its fiscal second quarter, driven by its holdings in OpenAI, Arm Holdings, and other AI-focused firms. Analysts expect SoftBank to post its strongest annual profit since 2020, with the Nvidia sale adding significant liquidity to support its ongoing expansion.

Son’s AI roadmap is ambitious. In addition to the Stargate data center network, SoftBank is pursuing a $1 trillion AI manufacturing hub in Arizona, potential collaborations with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC), and the acquisition of Ampere Computing LLC for $6.5 billion. The company has also agreed to purchase ABB Ltd.’s robotics division for $5.4 billion—moves that signal a vertically integrated AI empire in the making.

SoftBank’s financial strategy has been equally bold. It recently expanded its margin loan backed by Arm shares to $20 billion, secured an $8.5 billion bridge loan for its OpenAI investment, and committed the full $22.5 billion originally pledged to the AI startup.

The Japanese conglomerate’s stock has surged nearly 78% over the past quarter, its best performance in two decades. The company also announced a 4-for-1 stock split effective January 1, 2026, aimed at making its shares more accessible to retail investors.

As Son pushes deeper into the AI frontier, SoftBank’s latest divestment highlights both opportunity and risk. While the Nvidia exit frees billions for new ventures, it also removes exposure to one of the most successful AI chipmakers of the decade. Still, for Masayoshi Son, the message is clear: SoftBank’s future lies not in following AI’s leaders, but in building the infrastructure that powers them.
