Solution

We were engaged to identify a partner that recognized Falmat’s value proposition and global potential. Falmat ultimately entered exclusive negotiations with Winchester Interconnect (Aptiv), a multi-billion-dollar European conglomerate. Aptiv saw in Falmat a premier brand with strong presence in specific US sectors and tremendous potential to leverage Aptiv’s global platform.

We negotiated an extraordinary valuation, providing a full liquidity event for all shareholders.

“We were impressed

with the Hexagon team’s strategic advice and skills in negotiating and managing the diligence process. With their guidance, we were able to achieve a strong valuation and successful outcome for our team and shareholders.”
