Reference: M001750

Mergers are actively seeking a Fire & Gas Detection Systems business on behalf of a Main Market-listed US-based Acquirer. The acquirer is a global manufacturer of products designed to protect both people and infrastructure, with a significant operational footprint across Europe and Asia. As part of their continued international growth strategy, they are seeking to acquire established businesses in the technical fire & gas detection systems and elevator systems sectors. The group is financially well-resourced and has a demonstrable history of successful international acquisitions.

Industry Focus:

The acquirer is targeting manufacturers with a strong technical focus in either fire & gas detection systems or elevator systems. The ideal company will offer engineered solutions, proprietary technologies, or safety-critical equipment serving complex or regulated environments. Businesses with integrated or smart systems will be of particular interest.

Target Market:

The target businesses should have a well-established customer base across sectors such as commercial infrastructure, industrial facilities, residential developments, and public safety. A strong reputation for quality, technical reliability, and long-standing client relationships is highly desirable. The acquirer is especially interested in companies supplying mission-critical equipment to end-users in high-specification environments.

Financial Performance:

The company is seeking acquisition opportunities with an annual turnover in the range of $10 million to $300 million, with a preferred sweet spot between $30 million and $70 million. Prospective targets must have at least three years of verifiable historical growth, along with stable profitability and audited financial statements. Early-stage or start-up businesses will not be considered.

Geographic Location:

The preferred geographic scope includes companies based in the United States, Canada, Western Europe, South East Asia, and Australia. Businesses with international customer reach and a scalable platform for further growth will be prioritised.
