"AEA and Battery have been excellent partners to PST. Battery was instrumental in laying the foundations for PST when the platform was established in 2016 and has continued to play a valuable role ever since. Following AEA's majority investment in 2020, we have strengthened our presence in North America and established PST as a global, scaled market leader that is well positioned for long-term growth," said Adam Markin , CEO of PST. "We chose AEA as a partner in 2020 because of their deep experience and proven success in the industrial technology sector, and we are proud of the milestones we have reached together. Today, we are better positioned to address the growing needs of our diverse customer base, and we look forward to continuing to build on this strong foundation as part of the DwyerOmega family."
Since investing in PST in 2020, AEA MMPE has worked closely with PST's management team to expand the Company's total addressable market through strategic M&A and unlock new applications through investment in new product development. PST has also enhanced its systems and processes to integrate the platform, thereby realizing significant commercial and operational benefits, and expanded its geographic footprint to become a truly global business. Under AEA's ownership, PST has consistently taken share and grown above market, even in an uncertain macroeconomic environment.
"We are proud of the growth PST has achieved, and our successful partnership is a result of AEA's collaborative approach, footprint across the U.S. and Europe , sector expertise, clear value creation thesis, and commitment to driving strong outcomes for our stakeholders," said Ramzi Gedeon , Partner on the AEA MMPE team. "PST's management team has successfully positioned the Company as a leader in a market that is benefiting from increased demand for testing and measurement solutions as businesses seek to address rising health, safety, environmental, and regulatory requirements and drive operational efficiency and quality improvements. It has been a privilege to work alongside management and Battery in supporting PST's journey to meet customers' expanding needs. We wish the PST team all the best as they embark on this next chapter."
