Axon Enterprise shares fell sharply, dropping nearly 9% following the announcement of its acquisition of Prepared, an AI-driven 911 communications platform. The deal, reportedly valued between $800 million and $900 million, aligns with Axon's strategic focus but sparked investor concerns over spending at market highs.
The lack of disclosed financial terms and Axon's declining profitability—partly due to heavy investments in AI and share-based compensation—weighed on sentiment. Despite a bullish analyst note, the stock's premium valuation amplified the sell-off, reflecting broader market skepticism toward growth-stage acquisitions.
