## Broadwind's $18 Million MCM Purchase

Its roughly 50 employees, including its senior leadership team, joined Broadwind on October 30. MCM generated approximately $16.5 million in trailing-twelve-month revenue and approximately $3.7 million in adjusted EBITDA through June 30, 2026, a margin of about 23%, according to [TradingView](https://www.tradingview.com/news/globenewswire:73f338cdb094b:0-broadwind-acquires-mcm-expanding-its-precision-manufacturing-platform-within-the-power-generation-and-critical-infrastructure-market-providing-strategic-entry-into-electrical-transmission-and-distribution/). Broadwind said the price, excluding future earnout incentives, is 4.8x trailing-twelve-month adjusted EBITDA as of June 30, 2026. [Northland Capital Markets](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/0005p6k/northland-capital-markets) advised Broadwind on the transaction.

"The acquisition of MCM represents a defining milestone in Broadwind's transformation into a leading solutions provider to the power generation and critical infrastructure markets," said Eric Blashford, President and CEO of Broadwind.
