Rumble Inc., the video platform that hosts Truth Social, is in discussions to acquire Northern Data AG in a deal valued at nearly $1.2 billion. The potential acquisition comes alongside the release of Rumble's second-quarter financial results, which contributed to a surge in its stock price.

Northern Data AG is a Frankfurt-listed company specializing in data centers, high-performance computing, and cloud solutions. The deal, if finalized, would significantly expand Rumble’s technology infrastructure and processing capabilities.

According to reports, the talks are at an advanced stage, but no final agreement has been reached. The $1.2 billion estimated value is based on current negotiations and includes cash and stock components. Details about the exact breakdown of the offer have not been disclosed.

The news of the potential acquisition and stronger-than-expected quarterly results led to a notable rise in Rumble’s shares. The company has not issued an official confirmation of the deal terms, and the completion of the transaction is contingent on due diligence, regulatory approvals, and final contract agreements.

The announcement reflects Rumble’s continued efforts to expand its infrastructure and compete with established video and data hosting platforms.
