Summary
Skullcandy will stay in Park City and operate as a separate brand inside Bose’s Premium Consumer Audio business after the acquisition announced Wednesday.
Bose said Skullcandy gives it stronger access to boardsports, music, gaming and fitness customers where Bose has had less presence, building on a multiyear partnership that already added Sound by Bose technology to Skullcandy products.
Financial terms were not disclosed, but Bose said it will back Skullcandy with its technology, global distribution and commercial relationships while preserving the brand’s identity.
About 110 employees were retained through Skullcandy’s 2025 headquarters move in Park City, after Summit County bought its former 49,300-square-foot building for $17.5 million and began converting it into a civic hub.
