Amazon is to pay roughly 15% less to acquire iRobot after the vacuum maker incurred new debt.

The companies said this week that the Seattle-based tech giant will pay 51.75 dollars (£40) per share, revised down from 61.00 dollars (£47) per share, or 1.7 billion dollars (£1.31bn) , that was agreed on last year.
