GoPro's Best Week Ever: The $285M Deal | The Real Math

GoPro just posted its best week ever — the camera maker is merging into an AI and defense play.The stock jumped 105% in five days after GoPro agreed to merge with Starman Optical, a U.S. optical-transceiver maker tied to AI infrastructure. Shareholders get $285 million in cash — about $1.14 a share — plus roughly 10% of the combined company, and the deal clears around $92 million in debt. YouTuber Markiplier's 8.5% stake helped set it off.
