Air Flow Research Heads Announces Investment by Taglich Private Equity

Air Flow Research is excited to announce that Taglich Private Equity, LLC (TPE) has acquired AFR. TPE is a lower middle-market PE firm that specializes in recapitalizations, management buyouts, and majority equity investments, targeting manufacturing, business services and consumer products companies. Taglich looks to partner with management teams that can take advantage of their expertise and background in order to optimize their company's growth potential and create long-term value.

AFR’s management team and employees will continue to operate out of its Valencia, CA facility, continuing to provide high quality, performance cylinder heads, service, parts, and machining associated with the AFR brand. Nothing will change; it will be business as usual. As President, Board Member and significant investor, Rick will continue to be involved with the organization, ensuring the foundation that his family and employees have built over the past 50 years will flourish under TPE’s guidance.

Taglich and AFR are excited about the growth prospects both organically and through future acquisitions of other aftermarket performance companies.


IN MY EXPERIENCE THIS IS UNLIKELY TO BE GOOD!
ITS RARE FOR A COMPANY TO BE SOLD TO INVESTORS,
WHO USUALLY WANT TO MAKE CHANGES TO SQUEEZE MORE PROFITS ,
WITHOUT THE QUALITY OF THE PRODUCT BEING REDUCED AND PRICES RAISED
