LCI Industries has acquired STLA s.r.l, a Pontedera, Italy-based manufacturer of bed-lifts and other RV components for the European caravan market. STLA sales for 2017 were approximately $21 million.
The purchase price was $15.4 million, which was paid at closing. After funding the acquisition, LCI remains well-positioned to take advantage of other investment opportunities.
“We believe this transaction accelerates the opportunities to expand LCI’s product offerings for the European RV market,” said LCI President Scott Mereness. “We welcome STLA to LCI, and look forward to working closely with its team to grow its business in Europe. … This is our third acquisition in 2018.”
