Investcorp buys into top US distributor

RIYADH, January 15, 2017

Investcorp, a global leader in alternative investment products, has acquired a significant minority stake in US-based Arrowhead Engineered Products, a leading distributor of mission-critical replacement parts in the specialty vehicle market.

Arrowhead, based in Minnesota, is a global supplier of non-discretionary, mission-critical, rotating electrical parts and their components for the powersports, outdoor power equipment, agricultural, industrial, marine, heavy-duty and automotive end-markets. It is one of the sector’s fastest growing companies and has distribution and sourcing locations in North America, Europe and Asia. Arrowhead employees service over 40,000 customers on a daily basis.

Arrowhead recently has completed add-on acquisitions of aftermarket replacement parts providers Stens and J&N Electric. Both Stens and J&N Electric are highly complementary add-on acquisitions for Arrowhead and they significantly increase Arrowhead’s scale in this attractive market. These acquisitions are expected to further enhance the pace of new product introductions, expand customer reach and create extensive cross-selling opportunities.

Yasser Bajsair, managing director at Investcorp in Saudi Arabia, said:“Arrowhead is a great addition to the Investcorp portfolio and we are excited by the prospect of working with the management team to drive the next phase of its growth. We believe the acquisitions of Stens and J&N Electric, will diversify and expand Arrowhead’s capabilities.”

CEO of Arrowhead, Jim Wisnoski said: “Investcorp has deep experience in the motorized parts industry that is invaluable for Arrowhead’s next phase. We believe their network, capital and capabilities will help us execute on our ambitious growth plans.”
