Lincoln International Represents Wolf Electronix Corporation in its Sale to Computrol, Inc., a corporation owned by Armstrong International, Inc.
 
CHICAGO, December 31, 2008 - Lincoln International, a leading global mid-market investment bank, acted as the exclusive financial advisor to Wolf Electronix Corporation (“Wolf” or the “Company”) in the sale of the Company.  Wolf is a leading provider of high mix, complex electronics manufacturing services (“EMS”) to a wide range of customers in the Rocky Mountain region of the United States.  The Company was sold to Computrol, Inc., a corporation owned by Armstrong International, Inc.
 
Based in Orem, Utah, Wolf serves customers in high growth industries such as RF and wireless devices, transportation, avionics, military, and medical products. It is one of the leading EMS providers in the Rocky Mountain region.  The Company has been recognized multiple times over the past ten years as one of Utah’s fastest growing companies.

Lincoln International worked closely with Wolf’s management to ensure the successful outcome of the transaction.  Lincoln’s deep knowledge and experience in the EMS industry and ability to run an efficient and timely process, in particular, facilitated the deal’s rapid closure.  “Lincoln’s EMS focus and expertise were extremely helpful throughout the sale process.” said Rob Greiner, CEO of Wolf. 

Lincoln International guided the transaction to completion despite unprecedented challenges in the M&A market and deteriorating economic conditions within the EMS industry and its broader end-markets.  This represents the twelfth electronics transaction for Lincoln International in 2008.
