Exhibit 99.1
Magnetek to be acquired by Columbus McKinnon
I am pleased to announce today that Magnetek has agreed to be acquired by Columbus McKinnon Corporation, a worldwide designer, manufacturer and marketer of
material handling products, systems and services for commercial and industrial applications. Its key products include hoists, cranes, actuators and rigging tools. Headquartered in Amherst, New York, Columbus McKinnon is publicly traded on NASDAQ
under the symbol CMCO. Columbus McKinnon has approximately 2,800 employees and its latest annual revenue was $580 million.
Columbus McKinnon is an
industry leader in material handling, lifting and actuator businesses and we are a great strategic and tactical fit with them. Our products and technology are very complementary to their products. We share a strong commitment to quality and
service and have excellent reputations in the industries we serve with very similar corporate cultures. Magnetek adds a great brand name, industry position and new products and capabilities to Columbus McKinnons broad and diverse material
handling products portfolio. Together we are creating a new industry leader by combining the controls and drives leader with the hoist leader. We will be a leading competitive American supplier of hoists and controls.
About 40% of Columbus McKinnons sales are to international markets. Combined we can expand Magneteks product offering geographically through
CMs strong global sales force and distribution network. Columbus McKinnon plans to maintain the Magnetek brand and work closely with current Magnetek management as we continue to operate the business and serve as key members of the integration
team. We expect the acquisition to be completed in about 90 days.
Tim Tevens, the President and CEO of Columbus McKinnon will join me in Menomonee Falls
today to meet Magnetek employees and discuss Columbus McKinnon, its strategy and goals, the reason for the acquisition, and to respond to any questions.
We will have a Town Hall meeting at 7:30 CT this morning and invite you to join us in person or by phone. If joining by phone, the teleconference number
is 877-407-9039 or 201-689-8470. There will be time for Q&A as well.
I know that we will all do our part to make this combination a success.
We will continue to keep you informed of our progress and any expectations we have regarding your role in the integration process. We will also make every effort to respond to your questions and concerns in a timely manner as our two companies join
together.
I hope you will share in my excitement about the great opportunities ahead for growing the Magnetek business as part of Columbus McKinnon.
