Mobix Labs Powers Into Aerospace and Defense with Acquisition of SCP Manufacturing

~Second Strategic Acquisition in 60 Days Positions Mobix Labs as a Market Leader~

Mobix Labs, Inc. (Nasdaq: MOBX), a global leader in advanced connectivity solutions, has unveiled another game-changing move with its acquisition of SCP Manufacturing, a Nevada-based producer of mission-critical electrical components for aerospace, defense, and commercial applications. This strategic deal, the company’s second strategic acquisition in just 60 days, is expected to close in Q2 2025 and will amplify Mobix Labs’ operational efficiency, gross margins, and market dominance in high-growth industries.

“Our agreement to acquire SCP Manufacturing underscores Mobix Labs’ determination to redefine the aerospace and defense landscape. With SCP’s engineering and manufacturing capabilities, and a track record of excellence, Mobix Labs gains access to technologies essential for advanced military and commercial systems,” said Fabian Battaglia, CEO of Mobix Labs. SCP is a key supplier of mission critical products to Spacecraft Components, which Mobix Labs agreed to acquire in November 2024.

SCP’s products enable Spacecraft Components to supply critical components for the U.S. Army’s Patriot Missile defense platform, submarines, naval ships, as well as oil rigs, railcars, and major metropolitan transit systems. This acquisition not only strengthens Mobix Labs’ portfolio but also creates unparalleled synergies, enabling streamlined operations and accelerating its growth trajectory across multiple sectors.

Transaction Details

The acquisition will be financed through a mix of cash and equity with earnout provisions, subject to final due diligence and board approvals. Details will be finalized closer to the expected closing date in the second quarter-2025.
