In August 2024, the Company, through a subsidiary of HFSC, acquired the Aerial Delivery and Descent Devices divisions of Capewell Aerial Systems ("Capewell"). Capewell designs, manufactures and distributes emergency descent devices ("EDDs"), personnel and cargo parachute products, heavy airdrop platforms, and other highly-engineered products. Capewell is a critical supplier to OEMs, end-users, and distributors. The purchase price of this acquisition was paid in cash, principally using proceeds from the Company's revolving credit facility, and is not material or significant to the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
