Hammond Power Solutions Closes $365M AEG Power Solutions Deal
Hammond Power Solutions has finalized its acquisition of AEG Power Solutions for roughly CAD $365 million after clearing all regulatory hurdles.
Hammond Power Solutions Inc., the Ontario-based transformer and power quality manufacturer traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the ticker HPS.A, has officially closed its acquisition of AEG Power Solutions for approximately CAD $365 million. The deal, which had been previously disclosed to investors, received all necessary regulatory approvals before closing on June 29, 2026.
