Triumph Group Stock Surges on Go-Private Deal and Strong Earnings

Triumph Group, Inc. (TGI) shares surged today, driven by two significant factors: a go-private deal announcement and strong financial performance. The aerospace parts maker's stock price jumped by almost 35% after it announced an agreement to be acquired by private equity firms Warburg Pincus and Berkshire Partners for about $3 billion. The deal offers shareholders $26 per share, representing a premium of 123% over its unaffected closing stock price on October 9, 2024. This acquisition news boosted the stock price significantly.

In addition to the go-private deal, Triumph Group reported strong financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2025, which ended on September 30, 2024. The company achieved its tenth consecutive quarter of year-over-year sales growth, with commercial aftermarket sales from its IP-based business growing by more than 34%. This growth more than offset temporary commercial OEM and supply chain headwinds. The company also exceeded its cash targets in the quarter and raised its fiscal 2025 earnings and cash flow guidance.
