Audax Private Equity Announces Sale of Trexon

The sale, marking a significant realization for the Fund IV continuation fund, represents the 11^th announced or completed exit for Audax Private Equity since August 2024.

BOSTON & SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Audax Private Equity (鈥淎udax鈥�), a capital partner for middle and lower middle market companies, announced today it has agreed to the sale of Trexon (鈥淭he Company鈥�), a designer and manufacturer of custom interconnect solutions for mission critical applications. The sale to Amphenol Corporation (NYSE: APH) is subject to customary closing conditions and expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Headquartered in Boston, MA, with 1,100 employees globally, Trexon delivers custom-engineered interconnect solutions, including specialty cable, cable assemblies and connectors, across a range of applications for the defense, space, and other specialty end markets. A critical partner to blue chip customers in these important segments, Trexon provides differentiated technical expertise and engineering capabilities, making the Company a partner of choice for high-reliability, customized interconnect solutions.

鈥淥n behalf of the entire team at Trexon, we want to thank Audax Private Equity for their support, collaboration, and partnership,鈥� said Mark Twaalfhoven, Chief Executive Officer, of Trexon. 鈥淭his sale marks the culmination of significant growth and transformation for Trexon under Audax, including investments in our team and facilities, strategic efforts to focus on our core competencies, and the expansion of our product and capability set organically and through acquisition. We鈥檙e truly excited to continue our journey of growth as part of the Amphenol family.鈥�

In 2021, Audax oversaw the formation of the Trexon platform, bringing together several interconnect businesses under a single corporate brand. Since that time, Audax supported the platform through 11 add-on acquisitions that, along with organic growth initiatives, saw the Company significantly expand its capacity, while deepening its presence in defense and space end-markets. Through this process Trexon established itself as a pure-play provider of engineered, high-reliability custom interconnect solutions for defense, space, and other specialty end-markets.

鈥淲e鈥檙e incredibly proud of our partnership with Mark, the broader management team, and the employees at Trexon, for their accomplishments and what we believe to be a tremendous outcome for the Company and our investors,鈥� noted Don Bramley, a Partner at Audax Private Equity. 鈥淲e want to thank Mark and the entire team at Trexon for their commitment and drive, and wish them well as they look to build upon their success as part of Amphenol.鈥�

鈥淲e think our success with Trexon demonstrates Audax鈥� value creation strategy and the operational capabilities of our strategic resources and portfolio support groups,鈥� added Tim Porter, a Managing Director at Audax. 鈥淓xecuting on our value agenda in collaboration with Mark, we were able to recruit an incredibly talented management team, position Trexon as a stand-alone business, and add capacity and complementary capabilities through organic initiatives and acquisitions.鈥�

Over the past 12 months, Audax has now announced or completed four exits out of its Industrial Services & Technologies specialization, including previously announced sales of EIS, Liquid Environmental Solutions, and Thermogenics (an Origins Fund investment). Since August 1, 2024, Audax has agreed to or completed 11 exits across its Flagship and Origins strategies.

William Blair & Company L.L.C. and Guggenheim Securities L.L.C. acted as financial advisors to the sellers, while Kirkland & Ellis LLP and Fredrikson & Byron served as legal counsel.
