About the Acquisition

This acquisition is viewed as a global, joint marketing, and co-manufacturing agreement for selected products that will be used for military aircraft ground support activities. JBT and AMSS will put forward complementary products of each other in their respective markets, initially.

JBT is a leading global technology solutions provider to high-value segments of the food processing and air transportation industries. The Company operates through its multiple segments and delivers products across three particular portfolios, including: food processing products, automated guided vehicle products, and air transportation products. The Company operates through collaborative efforts of a culturally diverse group of people working across the globe, including about 5,100 employees, worldwide, operating sales, services, manufacturing, and sourcing operations in more than 25 countries.

The partnership is set to enhance military offerings and expand JBT's reach to foreign militaries. Post this acquisition, JBT's annual revenue is expected to increase by about $20 million, where net annual revenue for FY15 stood at $1.4 billion. Through the execution of this agreement, JBT targets to reach varied military customers through a broad range of ground support equipment which is capable of fulfilling needs like conditioned air, high-pressure air, and electrical power for the NATO fighters, trainers, cargos, naval, and specialty military aircraft.

In order to improve customer service, JBT also encourages joint selling efforts depending on customer needs. It also plans to manufacture certain key products regionally and enhance their design to meet the local requirements.

Strategic Benefits from the Agreement

JBT views this transaction as a step complementary to its AeroTech segment where JBT AeroTech designs, manufactures, tests, and provides services for technical systems and products. It also sells critical equipment and services to domestic and international air transportation. The segment has incorporated ground support equipment for cargo loading, aircraft towing, gate equipment for passenger boarding, military equipment for cargo loading, and on-the-ground aircraft cooling system under its unique product portfolio.

JBT and AMSS will introduce a wide range of air-transportable, military air cargo loaders with the potential of moving three to six pallets of cargo together. Combining AMSS's extensive market knowledge and JBT's broadened support capabilities, this agreement will enable the development of an innovative product line, and support the military infrastructure for the customers and the nation.

On August 19, 2013, JBT AeroTech announced that it has been awarded a five-year airport services contract at the Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) where the Company expected to generate approximately $9 million in revenue during the term. JBT AeroTech provided comprehensive maintenance and repair services for the gate and baggage handling equipment at RDU.
