Stratasys Acquires Markforged for $42.5 Million

Stratasys has agreed to acquire MarkForged from Nano Dimension for $42.5 million in an all-cash deal, as the company seeks to enhance its capabilities in the additive manufacturing sector, targeting applications in aerospace and defense. The transaction, pending regulatory clearance, is set to conclude in the second half of 2026.

The acquisition aims to bolster Stratasys' position by integrating MarkForged’s end-to-end Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) solutions, which include hardware, proprietary materials, and software bundled in its Digital Forge platform. Despite this acquisition, MarkForged's Metal Binder Jetting product line will remain with Nano Dimension. In 2025, MarkForged reported revenues of approximately $70 million, highlighting its role in producing advanced industrial parts through technologies like its Continuous Carbon Fiber.

Stratasys expects that acquiring MarkForged will extend its product portfolio and create new cross-selling opportunities, enhancing its ability to meet increasing demand for robust supply chain solutions and production-ready components. The acquisition is projected to enhance not only Stratasys' physical offerings but also its digital manufacturing competencies, with MarkForged’s advanced software features—such as simulation, inspection, and manufacturing workflow—augmenting Stratasys’ current offerings.

Within the broader market context, this acquisition positions Stratasys to address rising industrial demands where additive manufacturing is increasingly preferred over traditional methods. The strategic inclusion of high-performance polymer and metal filaments from MarkForged will allow Stratasys to diversify its material offerings, providing advanced solutions across sectors including automotive and food and beverage manufacturing.

Financially, Stratasys anticipates the deal to be accretive within one year of closure, predicting improvements in gross margins and significant cost synergies. The company also foresees a notable contribution to its adjusted EBITDA. Following the completion of the transaction, Stratasys plans to update its financial guidance. As the integration process begins, the combined partner and reseller networks of both companies are expected to enhance Stratasys' global market reach and competitive positioning in critical industries.
