Joining forces with Audio Precision and GRAS, imc will benefit from business synergies across the group of companies and drive its future growth through technology development, expansion of production capabilities and an increased global market reach.
Operations for imc will continue to be based in Germany and the company’s executive team will remain in place, working closely with the group CEO Mike Flaherty to manage the business. “We are excited to welcome imc to our platform of test and measurement companies. Its highly-engineered data acquisition systems are extremely complementary to our existing portfolio of sensors and analyzers from GRAS and Audio Precision, and will broaden the market exposure of our group, enabling us to serve our customers even more effectively in the future,” said Flaherty. “We also look forward to working together to pursue additional complementary acquisitions for the group.”
“After thirty-three years of founder ownership and steady growth, this partnership brings imc many new benefits as we continue to accelerate growth globally,” said imc CEO Kai Gilbert. “We anticipate many synergies and look forward to working with Audio Precision, GRAS and Battery as we continue to develop imc’s business and deliver market-leading products to our customers.”
