(AOF) – The Lumibird group, a specialist in laser technologies, has finalized the agreement with the Italian company Prima Industrie for the acquisition of its subsidiary Convergent Photonics and the assets of Convergent held by Prima Industrie North America (Boston, USA) . This acquisition provides Lumibird with innovative solutions and autonomy in semiconductors and high-power fiber lasers while opening up new markets.
This acquisition presents “a double strategic interest” for Lumibird, on the one hand by strengthening its autonomy in semiconductors and very high power fiber lasers, and on the other hand, by opening up new market segments.
It also complements with the arrival of the semiconductor, the strategic investments already made in optical fiber and derived components.
It allows Lumibird to become independent in the long term on the supply of critical components and gives it increased innovation capabilities at the level of materials and components, while internalizing the margins of expensive components.
Lumibird, which will also publish its half-year results on September 26, financed its acquisition by drawing down the bank lines available to the group, in compliance with the covenants.
