In July 2023, iRobot took a $200 million loan from the Carlyle Group to fund the company's operations as a stopgap until the Amazon deal closed. The company amended the loan for a temporary waiver on certain financial obligations, which requires iRobot to pay a fee of $3.6 million.
As part of Wednesday's report, iRobot said its board has initiated a strategic review of the business and is considering alternatives that could include refinancing its debt and exploring a potential sale. The board hasn't set a deadline for when its review will conclude, the company said.
