OneSpan Completes Acquisition of Build38

OneSpan Inc. (NASDAQ: OSPN) today announced that it has completed the acquisition of Build38, a leader in next-generation mobile application protection solutions. The signing of the definitive agreement was previously announced on January 12, 2026. With the transaction now closed, OneSpan officially brings Build38’s advanced mobile security technology, engineering talent, and cloud-driven threat intelligence platform into its expanding cybersecurity portfolio.

With Build38’s technology now part of OneSpan, customers will gain access to expanded App Shielding capabilities through a more comprehensive and intelligence-driven approach to protecting their mobile applications, including the ability to strengthen their mobile channels through continuous in-app protection, cloud-powered threat intelligence, and adaptive, AI-enabled defenses. This expanded capability equips customers with deeper visibility into emerging risks, including AI-related risks, more precise threat response, and a seamless, future-ready foundation for securing high-value mobile experiences as digital ecosystems continue to evolve.

“With the close of this acquisition, we’re excited to welcome Build38 to OneSpan and take this important next step in expanding our mobile app security capabilities,” said Victor Limongelli, CEO of OneSpan. “By adding Build38’s SDK-based security capabilities to enhance our App Shielding offering, including the integration of in-app, cloud, and AI-driven protections, we’re strengthening our ability to safeguard high-value mobile channels and help our customers stay ahead of rapidly evolving threats. This combination enhances our platform, accelerates our innovation roadmap, and positions OneSpan to deliver the next generation of mobile application security to leading banks and other organizations around the world.”

The acquisition is not expected to materially affect OneSpan's full‑year 2026 guidance.
