Addvantage Technologies Acquires Triton Datacom

Peter Berg of Transworld M&A Advisors handles transaction

ADDvantage Technologies Group, Inc. (AEY), announced that it has acquired the assets of Triton Miami, Inc., a leading provider of new and refurbished enterprise networking products, including desktop phones, enterprise switches and wireless routers.  Triton was advised in the sale by Peter Berg, a Managing Director for Transworld M&A Advisors.

Triton, based in Miami, Florida, primarily sells products to brokers and end-users across the U.S. through a dedicated sales force and e-commerce program.  Triton maintains a broad inventory of products from various manufacturers, with a majority of its sales coming from Cisco and Polycom products.

“With a diverse customer base and broad line of product offerings, Triton has established a highly profitable business that generated approximately $2.1 million in EBITDA from $13.5 million in revenue over the past twelve months. We see many areas where our two businesses overlap or are complementary in nature, making this a highly attractive acquisition for ADDvantage,” commented David Humphrey, President and CEO of ADDvantage Technologies.

"We appreciate the trust that Triton Datacom placed in us to help them find the perfect acquirer. We were able to effectively bring the company to market and generate maximum value for the shareholders while also maintaining complete confidentiality throughout the process,” said Peter Berg. Transworld M&A Advisors specializes in selling business with revenues above $5 million.

Ross Himber, founder and President of Triton stated, “We are enthusiastic about joining the ADDvantage Technologies team as it has a solid reputation in the telecommunications industry.  With Peter Berg’s diligence and guidance, this complex deal concluded quickly and we are ready for the next phase of our business. Triton now has the opportunity to further grow its business by leveraging the financial strength and experience of ADDvantage, while still maintaining the overall structure and core values that have made us successful.”
