TransDigm Group Provides Update on Divestitures

CLEVELAND, Sept. 20, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- TransDigm Group Incorporated (NYSE: TDG), a leading global designer, producer and supplier of highly engineered aircraft components, announced today that it has completed the divestiture of its Esterline Interface Technologies (EIT) group of businesses to an affiliate of KPS Capital Partners, LP for approximately $190 million.

EIT was acquired by TransDigm in March 2019 as part of the Esterline Technologies acquisition and is comprised of three distinct businesses including Advanced Input Systems, Gamesman and LRE Medical. The business is a developer and manufacturer of interface solutions serving leading OEMs in the growing medical, commercial, industrial, diagnostics and gaming end markets. EIT generated revenues of approximately $190 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018.

In addition to the EIT divestiture, TransDigm still expects to complete the previously announced divestiture of the Souriau-Subank Connection Technologies (Souriau-Sunbank) business to Eaton Corporation during the fourth quarter of calendar 2019.  Souriau-Sunbank was also acquired by TransDigm in March 2019 as part of the Esterline Technologies acquisition and is a leading global supplier of highly-engineered interconnect solutions for harsh environments serving customers primarily in aerospace, defense and space end markets. The business generated revenues of $363 million for the trailing 12-month period ended June 30, 2019.

TransDigm intends to reclassify and report both EIT and the Souriau-Sunbank businesses as discontinued operations for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, full fiscal year 2019 and fiscal 2020 guidance.
