Amazon Cancels iRobot Deals

Amazon has pulled out of the planned acquisition of Roomba maker iRobot. The company claimed that the deal was a victim of "undue regulatory obstacles." The company will pay iRobot a breakup fee of $94 million.

The decision was made after the European Commission, the EU's executive arm and top antitrust enforcer, announced that it had a "preliminary opinion" that the merger would harm competition.
