Hagan: Allfast Deal Price “Astonishing”

The recent $360 million acquisition of Allfast Fastening Systems by TriMas Corp. revealed TriMas paid a high price for the aerospace fastener manufacturer.  

“From a revenue and cash flow generation perspective, this could be the richest purchase price ever paid for a large, industry-significant fastener manufacturer,” Pinnacle Capital Corp. president Richard Hagan told GlobalFastenerNews.com. 

Investors reacted swiftly to news of the deal.

Prior to the deal announcement, TriMas shares traded within a range of $38.96 (on Jan. 2) and $29.54 (on Sept. 19) during the current calendar year.  However, by the end of September, shares had declined by $4.60 (or 15.6%) to $24.94 per share.  

“At the current market price, TriMas shares are trading at 7.8 times trailing 12 month EBITDA.”
