M&A Announcement summary5 Jan, 2026

Deal rationale and strategic fit

  • Acquisition of Platinum Cables enhances presence and capability in the mining sector, deepens customer relationships, and complements existing offerings, enabling cross-selling and packaged solutions without product overlap.

  • Platinum Cables brings strong engineering, compliance, and technical expertise, with a focus on high-performance, mines-approved cables for harsh environments.

  • The deal addresses a strategic gap, providing immediate access to mines-approved cables and supports the group's growth strategy through targeted, synergistic acquisitions.

  • Diversifies end markets, reducing reliance on commercial construction and ABB as a vendor, and expands into renewables, rail, and infrastructure.

  • Leverages sector tailwinds, including electrification and decarbonisation of the Australian economy.

Financial terms and conditions

  • Upfront payment of AUD 37.5 million (~5.2x FY25 EBIT), with AUD 37 million in cash, AUD 500,000 in shares, and an earnout capped at AUD 7.5 million based on EBIT growth through December 2026.

  • Funded primarily through new and expanded debt facilities, with minimal shareholder dilution and a new AUD 10 million working capital facility.

  • Total debt drawn at completion will be AUD 48.6 million; pro forma leverage ~0.9x gross debt/FY25 EBITDA.

Synergies and expected cost savings

  • Focus on leveraging sales synergies and significant cross-selling opportunities, especially combining mines-approved cables with other engineered products.

  • No overlap in product offerings ensures a complementary fit and operational efficiencies over time.

  • Longer-term plans to utilize shared services for cost-effective scaling and efficiency gains.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
