Robust Platform for Strategic Acquisitions
Since Main Street's investment in June 2016, Gamber-Johnson has completed five acquisitions, resulting
in product diversification, end-market expansion, and vertical integration
The Company's products are used by law enforcement, public safety, military, and warehouse fleets
around the globe and are known for being rugged, reliable, and responsive
Gamber-Johnson was owned by Leggett & Platt as an independently-operated subsidiary that was non-
core to the corporate strategy leaving the management team with minimal capex and operating flexibility
Acquisitions include Zirkona (December 2016), Precision Mounting Technologies ("PMT") (January
2017), Premier Mounts (March 2021), InfoCase (August 2022), and Lind Electronics ("Lind") (November
2022)
100% of the capital required to fund the 5 acquisitions came from Main Street, the management team,
and internally generated cash flows
