Corporate Finance Associates, an international investment banking services firm providing merger and acquisition, business valuation, capital resource and financial advisory services, announced that it was the exclusive advisor to Ergo-Mechanical Industrial in its majority sale to Arch Equity Partners.
Ergo-Mechanical Industrial (EMI) operates two subsidiaries Ergonomic Material Handling Systems (EMH) and Tennessee Valley Industrial (TVI) that engineer, design, integrate and install a wide variety of custom material handling and ergonomic equipment for Fortune 500 OEMs.
EMH is a full systems integrator specializing in the design, installation, project management, and overall integration of custom material handling and ergonomic equipment for OEMs. EMH operates out of its Decatur, IL facility with equipment such as operator lift platforms, conveyors, overhead rail, assist arms, pallet changers, dollies, and other custom equipment.
TVI specializes in mechanical installation and turnkey projects. Based in Georgetown, Kentucky, TVI’s project experience includes the installation of roller, belt, slat, power and free chain and electrified monorail systems. In addition, TVI performs rigging and installation of machine centers, overhead steel, demolition, relocation services, equipment refurbishing, painting and scheduled maintenance.
In most cases, EMH provides the design and products, while TVI provides the critical project management and installation that are a core requirement of its customers. Customers include Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Caterpillar, and John Deere.
“From the first meeting it was evident that EMI’s dynamic management team and the principals of Arch Equity shared the same vision for the company’s future. The tremendous growth opportunities on EMI’s horizon coupled with Arch Equity’s access to capital made this a clear match,” said Anthony Contaldo, Director of Corporate Finance Associates’ Chicago Office.
St. Louis, Missouri based Arch Equity Partners was formed in 2008 as a private equity firm that concentrates on investments for companies in the lower middle market. The private equity group actively partners with management teams to ensure they have a meaningful ownership position, targeting management team ownership of 15-25%.
