TTM Technologies, Inc. announced today that it has completed its acquisition of Anaren, Inc. The combined company had pro-forma 2017 revenue of $2.9 billion.

TTM has identified $15 million in pre-tax, run rate, cost synergies which are expected to be realized within the first two years after closing and expects this transaction to be immediately accretive to non-GAAP earnings. Additionally, TTM believes that significant revenue synergies will result over a longer period of time.
“I enthusiastically welcome the employees of Anaren to TTM and look forward to the combination of our respective talents,” said Tom Edman, CEO of TTM. “I expect that integrating our manufacturing strength with Anaren’s RF engineering talent will enable us to deliver superior value-added solutions to our customers in the Aerospace & Defense market as well as in the other markets we serve. I also believe that the combination will result in meaningful revenue synergy opportunities created by complementary capabilities that will benefit the customers and employees of both companies.”
Anaren was purchased for $775 million in cash consideration, subject to certain customary adjustments at closing.

The closing of the incremental term loans occurred concurrently with the acquisition of Anaren.
