Mistras Group Makes Major Acquisition

PRINCETON JUNCTION, NJ – MISTRAS Group, Inc. (MG), a leading global provider of technology used to evaluate the structural integrity of critical energy, industrial and public infrastructure, has announced the acquisition of The NACHER Corporation.
NACHER provides comprehensive turnkey maintenance and inspection services to the oil, gas and petrochemical industry, primarily on offshore platforms.
“NACHER is an exciting addition to our team, enabling MISTRAS Group to break into a robust offshore market that includes over 3,800 off shore platforms in the Gulf region alone, along with fabrication facilities that support the rigs and platforms,” stated Dr. Sotirios J. Vahaviolos, Chairman, CEO and President of MISTRAS Group.
“The addition of NACHER allows us to address the upstream operations of our major integrated energy customers where we are currently providing services for their mid and/or downstream operations,” he said, and noted that “what is most important is the fact that the values and culture of the NACHER team are totally aligned with those of MISTRAS. Both companies place the utmost value upon relationships with their customers and employees and do their utmost to safely provide an extensive range of asset protection services at a compelling value.”
“NACHER has become a leader in the offshore maintenance industry by partnering with customers to deliver creative, innovative, and safe solutions, utilizing state-of-the-art technology, equipment and skilled personnel. NACHER has multiple offices in Louisiana to service offshore customer assets located in the Gulf region and the Pacific coast,” according to Global Newswire, which adds:

Also offered will be the Asset Integrity Management Services (AIMS) engineering programs that include process engineering, mechanical integrity services and fitness for service assessments including materials evaluations. All of these products, systems and services have been identified by customers as solutions that are highly desired to safely maintain the operating integrity of their offshore assets.

We share these same values and look forward to accelerating our growth with the team and with the global resources of the MISTRAS Group behind us.”
Dr. Vahaviolos declared that, “We expect that this acquisition will add approximately $25 million in revenues for the fiscal year to our previously announced revenue guidance range and be accretive to earnings from day one. We will provide more details when we release results for our first quarter in early October.”
