NUBURU targets October 15 2026 to close 70% Tekne acquisition after Golden Power approval

NUBURU, Inc. announced that the parties aim to hold the notarial meeting on October 15 2026 to finalize the purchase of a 70% controlling interest in Italy’s Tekne S.p.A. The transaction has received Golden Power authorization from the Italian government on August 5 2026 and will be executed through the newly formed sub‑holding NUBURU Defense Italy S.r.l. Tekne brings roughly $135.4 million of signed orders and about 185 employees to NUBURU’s Defense Security platform.

The acquisition will add an established Italian industrial base and a funded order backlog to NUBURU, potentially strengthening its defense and security offerings. Completion of the deal could improve the company’s growth outlook and may be reflected in the stock’s valuation.
