Apollo Global Management is making another bold move in the industrial sector, acquiring Barnes Group Inc. for $3.6 billion. The deal, announced this week, includes the assumption of debt and positions Apollo to expand its influence in aerospace, manufacturing, and engineered products.
Barnes Group, a 165-year-old company, is well-known for its precision components and advanced manufacturing solutions serving industries like aviation, automotive, and healthcare. The acquisition signals Apollo’s strategic bet on industrial innovation, leveraging Barnes’ expertise to drive growth and enhance operational efficiencies.
Under Apollo’s ownership, Barnes is expected to accelerate investments in automation, materials science, and advanced manufacturing techniques to remain competitive in a rapidly evolving market. The private equity giant has been actively targeting legacy manufacturing firms with strong fundamentals and the potential for modernization.
This acquisition underscores a broader trend of private equity reshaping the industrial landscape, as firms seek to capitalize on innovation and global supply chain shifts. The deal is set to close later this year, pending regulatory approvals.
