Mobix Labs proposes acquisition of Peraso in stock deal at 20% premium

IRVINE, Calif. - Mobix Labs Inc. (NASDAQ:MOBX), currently trading with a market capitalization of $35.89 million, has made an unsolicited offer to acquire Peraso Inc. (NASDAQ:PRSO) in a stock-for-stock transaction at a 20% premium to Peraso’s 30-day average closing price through June 10, according to a company press release statement.

The proposed acquisition would combine Mobix’s defense and interconnect products with Peraso’s mmWave solutions. Peraso reported $1.5 million in 5G/mmWave revenues in Q1 2025, exceeding its entire 2024 fiscal year revenue of $1.3 million in that segment.

Mobix, which generated over $10.7 million in trailing-12-month revenue with approximately 450% year-over-year growth, stated the combined entity could reach about $20 million in annual revenue.

The timing of the offer comes as Peraso faces a November 2025 deadline to raise its market capitalization to at least $35 million to maintain Nasdaq compliance. As of June 11, Peraso’s market cap stood at approximately $5.9 million. According to InvestingPro data, Mobix’s current ratio of 0.13 suggests potential liquidity challenges, making this strategic move particularly significant for both companies.

Phil Sansone, interim CEO of Mobix Labs, said the proposal "delivers immediate value to Peraso shareholders and sets the stage for accelerated long-term growth."

Mobix submitted the non-binding proposal directly to Peraso’s Board of Directors on June 12. The company indicated it might consider alternative approaches to present its proposal directly to shareholders if Peraso’s board declines to engage.

The transaction would aim to create operational synergies in sales, production, and procurement while leveraging complementary product portfolios in defense, aerospace, AI datacenter, and 5G markets.
