NEW YORK, NY—April 7, 2021—Peloton (NASDAQ:PTON), the leading interactive fitness platform, announced that it has officially closed the acquisition of Precor, one of the largest global commercial fitness equipment providers with a significant U.S. manufacturing presence. With this acquisition, Peloton establishes its U.S. manufacturing capacity, anticipates boosting research and development capabilities with Precor’s highly-skilled team and accelerating Peloton’s penetration of the commercial market. Peloton plans to produce connected fitness products in the United States before the end of the calendar year 2021.

"Este é um marco importante para a Peloton e para a nossa comunidade global", disse William Lynch, Presidente da Peloton. "Passámos os últimos meses a aprender mais sobre o foco incansável da Precor na experiência do cliente e estamos agora ainda mais entusiasmados por dar as boas-vindas a esta equipa talentosa na Peloton. Agora, com a Peloton e a Precor, acreditamos que estamos ainda mais bem posicionados para alcançar o nosso objetivo de levar a melhor experiência em saúde e fitness conectados a mais pessoas em todo o mundo."

O presidente da Precor, Rob Barker, continuará a liderar a Precor e tornar-se-á diretor executivo da Precor e diretor geral da Peloton Commercial, respondendo perante Lynch.

"Os próximos meses serão alguns dos mais emocionantes, pois a Precor e a Peloton trabalham juntas para construir o futuro e capacitar mais pessoas a viver as vidas que desejam", disse Barker. "Com a Peloton Commercial, esperamos poder não só continuar a nossa relação com os nossos clientes actuais, mas também expandir a experiência Peloton que milhões de pessoas têm em casa para ainda mais hotéis, campus e residências multifamiliares."
