Mayville to Expand Its Footprint With the Accu-Fab Acquisition
Read MoreHide Full Article
Mayville Engineering Company, Inc. (MEC - Free Report) has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Accu-Fab, LLC from the strategic holding company, Tide Rock.
Expected to close during the third quarter of 2025, upon the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, the total value of the buyout stands at $140.5 million.
MEC stock grew 5.2% during yesterday’s trading hours after the acquisition announcement.
How Will the Accu-Fab Acquisition Benefit Mayville?
Accu-Fab is a vertically integrated contract manufacturer that offers value-added services, including design, engineering, sheet metal fabrication and integration, and specialized finishing to large OEMs. It operates manufacturing facilities at Raleigh, NC and Wheeling, IL, including approximately 200,000 square feet of manufacturing space.
With total net sales and adjusted EBITDA of approximately $61 million and $14 million, respectively, and an adjusted EBITDA margin of more than 23% in 2024, upon acquisition, Accu-Fab will prove incremental to MEC’s business. Mayville is expected to witness growth across its adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margins and adjusted earnings per share (EPS), leaving room for long-term value creation potential from this strategic transaction.
Currently, Mayville expects the Accu-Fab acquisition to contribute $28-$32 million to its net sales and $6-$8 million to the adjusted EBITDA in 2025. Furthermore, through the effective implementation of its MBX framework across Accu-Fab’s footprint, MEC expects to generate about $1 million in annual cost synergies and improved utilization by 2026.
Per Jag Reddy, president and chief executive officer of Mayville, “This acquisition strengthens our commercial reach by accelerating entry into attractive new markets—an explicit priority within our MBX value creation framework. Accu-Fab’s strong customer relationships and value-added services present a compelling opportunity to leverage scale, operational discipline and commercial infrastructure to drive meaningful revenue and cost synergies.”
