Divestment of Weinschel and Inmet Businesses for US$80m

Cobham today announces that it has reached agreement to divest its Weinschel and Inmet businesses to API Technologies Corp. for US$80m in cash, payable on completion. The transaction will complete once customary regulatory approvals have been received.

Weinschel and Inmet were acquired by Cobham as part of the Aeroflex acquisition in September 2014. Weinschel, based in Frederick, Maryland, and Inmet, based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, design, develop and manufacture radio frequency and microwave components and subsystems.

These businesses possess a high volume, high product mix operating model that is inconsistent with Cobham's strategic direction and underlying style of competition. The divestment is therefore consistent with Cobham's strategy to build and expand scale positions across its portfolio.
