Janes Capital Partners is pleased to announce that it has co-advised along with Oaklins’ Smith & Williamson (lead adviser) on two United Kingdom based Aerospace & Defense M&A transactions:
TMD Technologies, Ltd. and its wholly owned U.S. subsidiary TMD Technologies, LLC has been acquired by Communications & Power Industries, LLC (“CPI”), a portfolio company of Odyssey Investment Partners.
Consisting of approximately 170 employees in facilities in the United Kingdom and the United States, TMD is a world-leading designer and manufacturer of technologically advanced microwave, radio frequency and high voltage equipment for radar, electronic warfare, communications, medical, EMC testing and scientific applications.
TMD brings new products and technological capabilities to CPI’s established portfolio of electronic components and subsystems focused primarily on the defense and communications markets. TMD’s range of reliable and innovative products includes traveling wave tubes (TWTs), TWT amplifiers, transmitters, microwave power modules, high voltage power supplies, and other microwave devices and amplifiers.
The newly acquired business will be owned and operated as a subsidiary of CPI and will be part of CPI’s Electron Device Business, which focuses on components used in the generation, amplification, transmission and reception of microwave signals.
Permali Gloucester Ltd., a portfolio company of 3i Capital has been acquired by Diamorph Group Holdings Ltd.
Permali Gloucester is a leading designer and manufacturer of composite and thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) material solutions. It serves global OEMs and government organizations across a wide range of sectors, including defense, aerospace, Formula One (F1), medical and rail, supplying bespoke and highly technical products for often mission critical applications.
Diamorph provides material solutions under a range of brands for highly demanding environments and is backed by Epiris LLP, an independent private equity firm. The addition of Permali’s strong positions in defense, medical and F1 to the Diamorph Wear Components business unit, with the two businesses’ adjacent technology bases, will strengthen the group and create a significant UK player in laminate-based composite materials.
