U.S. stocks were higher, with the Nasdaq Composite gaining around 150 points on Tuesday.

Shares of Nayax Ltd (NASDAQ:NYAX) rose sharply during Tuesday’s session after the payments company agreed to acquire smart parking technology provider IPS Group Inc. for $350 million in cash.

Nayax will acquire IPS from Windjammer Capital Investors on a cash-free, debt-free basis. The purchase price equals about 17 times IPS’ estimated 2026 adjusted EBITDA. That multiple falls to about 12 times after expected synergies.
