Atlassian Corporation (NASDAQ: TEAM) reported in a Form 8-K filed September 18, 2025 that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire DX, a developer intelligence platform focused on engineering intelligence.
The announcement is furnished under Item 7.01 (Regulation FD) and is accompanied by a press release (Exhibit 99.1). The stated rationale is to help enterprises measure how their AI investments are helping engineering teams accelerate and improve their work, by combining DX's measurement and benchmarking capabilities with Atlassian's tools such as Rovo Dev, Jira, Bitbucket, Bitbucket Pipelines and Compass. Under the agreement, Atlassian will acquire DX for approximately $1 billiona in cash and restricted stock, including DX's cash balance, subject to customary adjustments.
The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of Atlassian's fiscal year 2026, subject to customary closing conditions and required regulatory approvals. The company also stated the transaction does not change its previously issued fiscal year 2027 non-GAAP operating margin target.
The press release notes that nearly all of DX's customers are already Atlassian users, and that the combination gives DX access to Atlassian's customer base of over 300,000 customers. The filing's forward-looking statements flag risks including the ability to integrate DX, achieve expected benefits, close the transaction on the expected timing, and the financial statement impact, including any effect on the share repurchase strategy.
