Description
Established more than three decades ago, this Southern California manufacturer is a trusted Tier 1 supplier to a major prime defense contractor, producing precision components and assemblies for critical armored vehicle programs with long-standing government funding.
The company operates from a 23,000 sq. ft. fully integrated facility, offering laser cutting, CNC machining, forming, welding, and CARC (Chemical Agent Resistant Coating) painting. This vertical integration enables superior control over timelines and quality, and allows the business to handle urgent orders competitors cannot accommodate.
The workforce of approximately 35 employees includes a long-tenured management team with deep institutional knowledge, ensuring operations are not owner-dependent. Almost all of the production consists of repeat orders tied to ongoing defense programs.
Financial Highlights (rounded):
Revenue: ~$13M (2024)
Adjusted EBITDA: ~$2.5M–$3.0M
Consistent backlog of work with additional orders available from existing customer
Key Investment Considerations:
Established Tier 1 supplier status — very difficult for new entrants to obtain
Facility ownership available; real estate can be included with the transaction
Strong repeat business with stable government-backed funding
Growth opportunities by accepting additional orders, diversifying into other defense contractors, or re-entering aerospace components
Reason for Sale: Ownership is preparing for retirement and will provide transition support to ensure continuity.
