FairCap acquires Electro System S.r.l. from NOVOMATIC Group Milan, February 23rd, 2024 – FairCap has successfully signed an agreement to acquire Electro System S.r.l. from NOVOMATIC Italia S.p.A., a subsidiary of NOVOMATIC AG Group. Founded in the 1970s and headquartered in Imola (Italy), Electro System manufactures and assembles electronic boards and industrial cables with applications ranging from automation to medical. The company enjoys long-term relationships with its blue-chip customer base, operating primarily in Italy. The closing of the transaction is expected in Q1 of 2024.

A year ago, NOVOMATIC Group engaged Cavour Corporate Finance to enhance the value of the company and search for an investor.
Niccolò Azzarini, Head of M&A of FairCap Italy, states: “The acquisition of the EMS provider Electro System marks a very important milestone for FairCap as it represents its first investment in Italy. Leveraging on its wide capabilities and know-how, we are convinced that the company can enhance its market positioning as a leading supplier of electronic boards and industrial cables.

Sustainability will be a key element of Electro System’s long-term strategy.” Andrea Zannini, Head of M&A of NOVOMATIC Italy, states: “FairCap was a trustworthy and professional partner during the entire transaction process.
