It's only negotiating an investment deal, nothing more than that

A few days ago, Corsair revealed a deal with Francisco Partners, which sounded a lot like the former was going to be bought off.

Since Francisco Partners was part of a consortium that tried and failed to buy Dell off, it sounded like Corsair would become a consolation prize.

Now, Corsair has published a follow-up to that press release, in which it says that it isn't being bought.

Instead, it is going to receive an investment of around $75 million, which corresponds to €56.84 million, according to exchange rates.

Since Corsair has been mostly profitable during the past 19 years, it has no intention of letting itself be assimilated by some other business entity.

In fact, it might make some acquisitions of its own, like the one with Raptor Gaming, not along ago.
