Roomba maker iRobot warns it may go out of business, sending shares plunging
Briefly

iRobot, known for its Roomba vacuum cleaners, has reported significant financial troubles leading to a sale exploration amid declining revenue and increasing competition. Once valued at $3.56 billion, the company is now worth under $200 million and has experienced a 44% revenue decline in the latest quarter. With a growing loss and dwindling cash reserves, iRobot's ability to continue operations is under scrutiny. The collapse of a proposed $1.4 billion buyout by Amazon, due to antitrust concerns, has further exacerbated its financial situation, leading to the resignation of its CEO and discussions around potential debt refinancing or sale options.
Roomba maker iRobot faces severe financial challenges with a significant drop in share value and ongoing losses, raising doubts about its ability to sustain operations.
The significant drop in iRobot's stock, compounded by declining revenues and rising competition from Chinese rivals, has led the company to explore various financial options.
