Aerospace

Shifting dynamics in the aerospace industry – continuing globalization of the OEM supplier base, introduction of new commercial platforms, and record commercial order backlogs – make it an opportune time for industry shareholders and executives to review strategic and transaction alternatives. Increased globalization provides additional transaction catalysts as firms seek to supply multiple OEMs and establish beachheads in strategic markets. When considering an investment bank for a potential aerospace or manufacturing transaction, access to global markets is critical. In 2009, more than 55 aerospace supplier transactions were consummated, making aerospace one of the most active M&A markets. Meridian Capital has a history of operating and transaction experience in aerospace. Meridian’s dedicated Aerospace Team has deep relationships with strategic buyers and private equity firms throughout the industry.


Currently engaged in multiple cross-border and domestic aerospace and manufacturing assignments, Meridian’s professionals have a strong understanding of the strategic opportunities available to industry participants. As regional aerospace transaction activity remains strong, Meridian welcomes the opportunity to discuss industry trends and your potential options.
