Key Facts

1Hillman Solutions Corp completed the acquisition of Kanebridge for a purchase price of approximately $315 million.

In a move reflecting its strategy to strengthen its leadership in the hardware and industrial fasteners sector, Hillman Solutions Corp announced the completion of its acquisition of Kanebridge LLC. The transaction was finalized for a purchase price of approximately $315 million, subject to customary adjustments. This acquisition aims to expand Hillman's position as a leading provider by integrating Kanebridge's capabilities as a master distributor of industrial fasteners.

The acquisition was funded through a combination of cash on hand, a draw on the company's existing asset-based revolving credit facility, and a new $200 million term loan B priced at SOFR plus 200 basis points.

With authoritative price data for HLMN currently unavailable, investors are focusing on the company's ability to integrate the new business and realize anticipated benefits, especially following recent US economic data showing wholesale inventories rose by 1.3%.
