The business employs c. 2,100 employees, with manufacturing plants in Japan and Thailand and regional sales presence across APAC, enabling the business to manage small-lot, multi product production to larger scale mass production and meet a wide range of its customers’ needs.

The company’s product suite spans a highly diversified set of industrial applications including automated guided vehicles, semiconductor manufacturing equipment, amusement machines, wired and wireless equipment, and automotive devices.

Kyoden also has deep experience in EMS (Electronics Manufacturing Services), providing end-to-end solutions from component design and manufacturing, procurement of materials and assembly of units and large-scale devices.

In partnership with Kyoden’s management team, Carlyle will support the company to further accelerate its growth plans through the continued development of its manufacturing capabilities focused on high-multilayer and build-up PCBs and commercial operations. Leveraging its global platform and resources, Carlyle will also support the business’ international expansion.

Kazuhiro Yamada, Co-Head of Carlyle Japan, said: “Kyoden has a high market share in the PCB industry thanks to its differentiated business model and advanced technological capabilities. Customer needs are becoming more diverse every day, and there is a growing need to incorporate more functions into more compact and lightweight devices. In acquiring Kyoden, we will support the business in responding to those evolving customer demands, continue its focus on technology and innovation, and accelerate its international expansion. We look forward to partnering with Kyoden’s management team in its journey to becoming a leading international PCB manufacturer.”

Hiroshi Naganuma, President of Kyoden, said: “We are excited to start the new partnership with Carlyle to sharpen our unique business model and accelerate Kyoden’s further growth in high-multilayer and build-up PCBs, the global PCB market, and EMS business. We believe Carlyle, with its deep knowledge and track record of growing Japanese companies like Kyoden, is the perfect partner to support the business’ accelerated growth trajectory.”

Paris, 10 October 2024 – Alliance Electronics, a leading electronics design and manufacturing group, announces the acquisition of TXCube, a specialist in the design and industrialization of complete electronic products. This acquisition follows the purchase of EMS Factory, a specialist in rapid electronic prototyping. These two strategic integrations, supported by Waterland Private Equity, will allow Alliance Electronics to strengthen its offering of value-added services and its position as an industrial leader in Europe.

Founded in 2009 by Elisabeth Partouche and Daniel Mawas, TXCube is a French expert in the design and industrialisation of electronic products, expected to reach over €12 million in revenue in 2024. With strong expertise in electronics, mechanics, embedded software, and “Design-to-Cost,” TXCube serves major companies from the CAC40, medium-sized businesses, and startups in France, Europe, and beyond.

Elisabeth Partouche views this partnership as a significant step in TXCube’s development: “With the ‘Made in Europe’ and ‘Made in France’ production capabilities of the Alliance Group, we can provide a broader manufacturing offering to our clients, driving further growth. Several new ‘Made in France’ projects are already in motion.”

Acquired in late July, EMS Factory is a Bordeaux-based company specializing in online rapid prototyping. Founded in 2015 by Pierre-Yves Sempere and Damien Michaud, EMS Factory employs 20 people and is known for its technical expertise and ability to produce complex electronic board and cable prototypes on very short deadlines. EMS Factory supports major industrial groups, medium-sized companies, research centers, and startups with their most complex projects across France and Europe.

Damien Michaud, who will remain at the helm of the company, commented: “I am excited by Alliance’s industrial vision, the growth opportunities it presents, and the potential to offer EMS Factory’s clients greater production capacity.”

These 6th and 7th acquisitions mark another significant step in Alliance Electronics’ development strategy, bringing its revenue close to €150 million. The group aims to reach €300 million by 2026.

Damien Rossignon, President of Alliance Electronics, commented: “These acquisitions mark a key milestone in expanding our subcontracting offering with high-value-added services for our clients. The seamless integration of design, prototyping, industrialization, and mass production allows us to offer a ‘one-stop-shop’ solution. This reduces time-to-market, optimizes production costs, and improves quality. We look forward to leveraging these synergies with the teams at TXCube and EMS Factory.”

Based in Rosheim, Alsace, Alliance Electronics is a major industrial player specializing in design, prototyping, and manufacturing of small and medium series electronic assemblies for international clients. The Group now operates 9 industrial sites across 4 countries: France (where its headquarters are located), Portugal, Belgium, and Tunisia.

The founders of EMS Factory and TXCube are reinvesting alongside Waterland within the Alliance Electronics group, as is Andera Croissance, which has been a shareholder of TXCube since its OBO three years ago.

“With these two new areas of expertise, Alliance Electronics strengthens its value chain and its technological and industrial service offering. EMS Factory enhances the prototyping activity while providing new commercial synergies, and TXCube supports the group’s position as a designer-manufacturer of electronic systems, offering new complete and turnkey solutions.” – Louis Huetz, Partner at Waterland.
