This announcement will make YouTuber Markiplier $24,225,000 richer.

As part of the deal, the company’s shareholders will receive a $285 million cash payment, or $1.14 per share, and the stock will remain listed on the Nasdaq.

One of the shareholders benefiting most from the news is Youtuber Markiplier, who acquired a massive 8.5% stake, according to a July 13 filing. Private equity firm BlackRock also disclosed a 6.4% stake earlier this summer.
