Context
Prediction markets currently price the likelihood that iRobot is acquired before the end of 2026 at 100.0%, a level described as near-certain. The contract has traded between 27.5% and 53.5% over the period. The market resolves to 'Yes' if credible reporting—primarily from the company or its leadership, or a consensus of credible sources—confirms that any entity has entered into an agreement to acquire iRobot by December 31, 2026, at 11:59 PM ET. Announced agreements count regardless of whether the deal ultimately closes. Mergers where iRobot is subsumed by another entity also trigger a 'Yes'. The resolution deadline is Dec 31, 2026. Any acquisition announcement before that date would settle the market positively, while the absence of such news results in a 'No' resolution. No other scheduled events or dates directly influence the market beyond the end-of-2026 cutoff.
