We are a leading designer and manufacturer of proprietary, mission-critical electronic and mechanical components engineered for cutting-edge performance in extreme environments. Leveraging significant intellectual property (“IP”) and world-class engineering capabilities, we design and deliver innovative solutions that address some of our customers’ most complex performance needs. Arxis is the result of a deliberate and disciplined strategy executed by our sponsor, Arcline, and the Arxis management team to create a purpose-built, cohesive business through targeted acquisitions with similar product and end market characteristics. Since 2019, we have acquired and integrated over 30 complementary companies, each meticulously selected for its strategic alignment with our business model and IP-led, designed-in component portfolios. We set out to build the leading supplier of high-reliability, highly engineered components providing mission critical functionality to defense and space systems, commercial aerospace platforms, life-saving medical devices and advanced industrial technologies. Our strategy was to create a differentiated platform – one that did not previously exist in the market – by unifying a set of specialized businesses into a single, integrated solutions provider. Our heritage lies in the aerospace and defense markets, where we have spent decades establishing embedded positions across hundreds of national security, space and commercial aerospace platforms. We also serve customers across similarly demanding and attractive end markets, including medical technology, high-end semiconductor testing, analytical devices, industrial automation and other specialized industrial sectors, which have unique performance requirements and resilient, long-term growth tailwinds. Our core products include electronic components such as connectors, cable assemblies, microelectronic packaging, radio frequency (“RF”) and microwave products, power products and sensors and mechanical components such as precision and self-lubricating bearings, seals, springs, gaskets and radar absorbing materials. We go to market through 47 customer-facing brands that we believe are synonymous with engineering excellence, quality execution and trusted partnership. At our core, we are a business of engineers. Our custom, IP-rich components are developed through engineer-to-engineer collaboration with our customers, and we believe our products set the industry standard for highly engineered solutions designed to operate dependably in high-cost-of-failure applications. Our product portfolio is built upon 67 foundational proprietary technologies from which we have developed thousands of unique products that are designed into more than 600 leading platforms. Given the extensibility of our foundational proprietary technologies, we are able to serve a diverse mix of blue-chip customers including major aerospace and defense original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers, and leading OEMs and their suppliers in other high-value sectors. --- Our products are typically designed into our customers’ current and next-generation platforms, many with large installed bases and multi-decade lifecycles. For the year ended December 31, 2025, approximately 90% of our revenue was generated from products that are uniquely designed, developed and produced by Arxis, often protected by patents, trade secrets or exclusive manufacturing processes. These factors contribute to our highly predictable, recurring and sticky revenue base. Although the products we provide are often critical to a platform’s mission and functionality, they represent an extremely small portion of a platform’s total cost: often less than 0.01%. We believe this outsized value-to-cost ratio, combined with the significant investment in time and resources required by our customers to design in a competing product, creates a high barrier to switching from our products. Our world-class technical team of more than 500 multidisciplinary engineers and more than 500 technical sales representatives are product experts that work hand-in-hand with our customers’ engineers to develop cutting-edge products for extreme operating environments. For example, our Kryoflex Connector was developed to address our customers’ need for a connector capable of withstanding high-temperature and high-pressure harsh environments, and we developed our Bal Conn Platinum Iridium Electrical Contacts to address our customers’ need for a high-performing electrical contact that can survive for over 15 years in the human body. This collaborative approach to developing proprietary products addressing cutting-edge performance requirements is the foundation of Arxis’ decades-long close customer relationships. --- Our recurring revenue profile is underpinned by our “layer cake” business model, where each “layer” of the “cake” represents a unique part, customer and platform combination. The Arxis revenue “layer cake” includes more than 11,000 “layers” that our business units have won over decades. Our engineers and technical salesforce continue to drive volume growth with the addition of new “layers” through the development of custom products for mission-critical applications on new and existing platforms, working alongside our customers sometimes years prior to initial platform launch to solve challenging engineering problems. These products are often designed into platforms that can remain in production for over 20 years. Post-production, these platforms can remain in service for over 40 years in some cases, which creates additional aftermarket revenue opportunities as platforms go through technology modernization cycles and as parts wear out. This combination of build-rate driven growth and aftermarket demand has created a highly recurring and growing revenue base with what we believe is a unique degree of visibility. --- Engineered to underpin our unique business model, our proprietary business system – Arxis EDGE (Empower Data-Driven Growth and Execution) – is the foundation of our sustained significant revenue growth and drives daily execution. Arxis EDGE leverages real-time analytics, insights and communication across the organization to enhance individual decision-making processes, drive team-based selling and accountability, increase cross-selling opportunities across our business units and support our commercial strategy. The Arxis EDGE business system aligns incentives across our engineers, technical salespeople and product managers who regularly form teams to identify, cultivate and book new business, adding new “layers” to our “cake” and fueling profitable growth. --- We operate our business through a decentralized organizational structure that enables significant growth and efficient and agile operations across our scaled organization of approximately 5,750 employees as of December 31, 2025. This structure prioritizes local autonomy at the business unit level while Arxis EDGE aligns interests and incentivizes collaboration across the entire organization. Reporting to our two segment Presidents are 16 “block” Vice Presidents, each of whom manage a group of customer-facing business units. Each of our 46 business units specialize in a product category and is empowered to make decisions to rapidly respond to customer needs, while also having clear goals and structural accountability to drive consistent and predictable performance. Our segment and block leaders are empowered to identify and evaluate acquisitions that complement Arxis business units, enabling us to pursue multiple add-on opportunities simultaneously without diverting attention from ongoing operations. By targeting adjacent product categories with common business model characteristics, we are able to implement our repeatable value creation playbook to drive incremental growth. After acquisitions close, acquired companies are rapidly immersed in Arxis EDGE, a fundamental part of our integration playbook, enabling us to quickly identify and optimize commercial opportunities to grow revenue and EBITDA and thus drive significant returns. We operate in a large and highly fragmented market, which we believe provides ample accretive acquisition opportunities to accelerate our organic growth strategy, although there can be no assurance that we will be successful in identifying, executing and integrating such acquisitions. Our business model and decades-long track record of product excellence have translated into long-standing relationships with over 5,000 global customers and embedded positions on over 600 platforms. Given the mission-critical nature of our products, our customers look for highly reliable suppliers they can trust to continually deliver high-quality products on time with a near-zero defect rate. Our ability to meet and often exceed our customers’ specifications and expectations, leveraging our comprehensive library of IP and technical know-how, is demonstrated by our decades-long customer relationships and strong customer retention. We believe our differentiated foundational proprietary technologies, track record of addressing complex customer challenges and decentralized operating structure unified through Arxis EDGE create a durable competitive advantage that positions Arxis as a critical long-term partner for our customers. We operate in two reportable segments: Electronic Components (approximately 44% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025) and Mechanical Components (approximately 56% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025). Both segments focus on proprietary, mission-critical, engineered components with outsized value-to-cost ratios, benefit from the same secular growth trends and share a decentralized operating structure unified by Arxis EDGE. The segments are distinct in terms of the product categories they offer: Our Electronic Components segment provides specialized, highly engineered electronic components and interconnect solutions, including connectors, cable assemblies, microelectronic packaging, RF and microwave products, power products, sensors, capacitors and resistors. Our Mechanical Components segment provides precision and self-lubricating bearings, seals, springs, gaskets and ducting, and radar absorbing materials. Our business is highly diversified across end markets, customers and platforms. While we primarily serve the broader aerospace and defense industries, we also have a significant presence across medical technology and other specialized industrials end markets. For the year ended December 31, 2025, our top ten customers together accounted for only 36% of our revenue, with no single customer representing more than 7%. Similarly, for the year ended December 31, 2025, our top ten platforms accounted for 24% of our revenue, with no platform representing more than 7%. Our principal executive office is located in Bloomfield, CT.
