NYX acquires the operations of Beach Mold & Tool
Amherst worked with their other advisors and additional stakeholders in their customer base to identify a purchaser who would be able to meet Beach’s production obligations and also help the business attain its next-level growth goals
Amherst Partners, LLC (“Amherst”) is pleased to announce that the operations of Beach Mold & Tool, Inc. (“Beach”) have been acquired by NYX, Inc. (“NYX”). Amherst acted as exclusive financial advisor to Beach Mold & Tool in connection with the transaction.
In 2018 Beach Mold & Tool, Inc. engaged Amherst Partners in an advisory capacity. As part of the engagement, Amherst helped Beach wind down operations at a non-core production facility in Virginia and implement other financial and operational improvements that increased the productivity and profitability of its primary production facility.
When the business owners indicated an interest in selling the company, Amherst worked with their other advisors and additional stakeholders in their customer base to identify a purchaser who would be able to meet Beach’s production obligations and also help the business attain its next-level growth goals while continuing to support its valued employees in and around the community of New Albany, Indiana.
Based on these requirements, NYX, Inc., with its reputation for operational excellence and strong customer base among the global automotive OEMs and suppliers, was selected as the buyer for the newly-revitalized Beach Mold & Tool.
Chain Sandhu, NYX Chairman commented
“Today is a great day for our new employees we are welcoming to our family, this transaction provides growth opportunity and job stability for all our employees and puts NYX in a position to continue to provide value to our customers with new geography, scale, product options, and processes. We are well positioned for sustainable growth and entrance into new markets and industries.”
