UK-based Cohort plc has completed its acquisition of EM Solutions from EOS.
“We are delighted to welcome EM Solutions to the Cohort group. This is a significant step for Cohort, broadening the Group's strong naval systems service offering, bringing new customers and enhancing the global footprint of the combined business," said Cohort Chief Executive, Andy Thomis.
In November 2024, EOS and Cohort agreed to a $144 million sale of the satellite communication terminal specialist.
“The increasing security challenges in Southeast Asia and Indo Pacific mean that Australia is an important strategic region. This combined with the increasing trend toward satellite communications means there are clear growth opportunities for both EM Solutions and the broader Cohort Group. We look forward to serving EM Solutions’ customers, current and future, in the years to come," Thomis added.
With the sale now complete, EM Solutions has become Cohort's seventh independent business. EM Solutions' leadership will report through Cohort's Communications and Intelligence Division.
“EM Solutions are equally delighted to join the Cohort Group. This is an opportunity for us to collaborate with other businesses within the Group to enhance our joint research and development offerings and maximise opportunities for providing our advanced satellite communications technology to more customers all over the world," said the Managing Director of EM Solutions, John Logan.
