CriticalPoint, a boutique M&A Advisory firm, is pleased to announce our role as exclusive financial advisor to Warmelin Precision Products, a commercial aerospace manufacturer of complex machined components, in its sale to Aerostar Aerospace, a portfolio company of Nautic Partners.
Headquartered in Southern California, Warmelin has a 40-year track record as a precision component manufacturer of close tolerance parts for the commercial aerospace industry. Warmelin has built a long-standing reputation for machining some of the most complex parts in the industry which today support aerospace platforms such as the Boeing 737, 777, 787 and the Airbus A350 and A380.
Warmelin and Aerostar will be combined to create a leading aerospace manufacturer on the West Coast. The complementary machining and engineering capabilities will allow the combined company to offer its respective customers incremental technical, machining and engineering expertise.
