Company Description
Servotronics, Inc. (historically trading under the symbol SVT on NYSE American) was an aerospace-focused manufacturing company that designed, developed, and manufactured servo controls and other advanced technology components. According to company and transaction disclosures, Servotronics supplied servo-control components and related products for various commercial and government applications, including aircraft, jet engines, missiles, manufacturing equipment and other aerospace applications. The company operated manufacturing facilities in Elma and Franklinville, New York, and was founded in 1959.
Over time, Servotronics became known for its work on servo valves and related servo-control components used in aerospace and defense platforms. Public descriptions of the business characterize Servotronics as a designer and manufacturer of servo controls and other components for commercial aerospace and defense applications, with products used across major aerospace and defense platforms and in both commercial and government programs. Its operations were part of the broader manufacturing sector, with a focus on highly engineered components that support precise control functions in demanding environments.
On May 19, 2025, TransDigm Group Incorporated and Servotronics announced a definitive merger agreement under which Servotronics would become an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm. Under that agreement, a TransDigm subsidiary commenced a cash tender offer for all outstanding shares of Servotronics common stock. An amendment to the merger agreement increased the tender offer price to $47.00 per share in cash for all issued and outstanding common shares of Servotronics.
According to a Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 1, 2025, the tender offer expired one minute after 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 30, 2025. A majority of the outstanding Servotronics shares were validly tendered and not withdrawn, and on July 1, 2025, the TransDigm merger subsidiary accepted all such shares for payment. Immediately thereafter, and in accordance with Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the merger subsidiary was merged with and into Servotronics, with Servotronics surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of TransDigm Inc. Each remaining share of Servotronics common stock that was not tendered (other than certain excluded shares, such as those subject to appraisal rights) was converted into the right to receive the same cash consideration as in the tender offer.
Following the completion of the merger, Servotronics requested that NYSE American halt and suspend trading in its common stock and file a Form 25 to remove the shares from listing and registration on the exchange. NYSE American filed a Form 25 on July 1, 2025, indicating the removal of Servotronics common stock from listing on NYSE American under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Subsequently, Servotronics filed a Form 15 on July 11, 2025, certifying the termination of registration of its common stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and the suspension of its duty to file periodic reports under Sections 13 and 15(d). The Form 15 notes that, as of the certification date, there was approximately one holder of record of the common stock.
As a result of these steps, Servotronics is no longer a standalone publicly reporting company, and its common stock has been delisted from NYSE American. The company continues to exist as a private, wholly owned subsidiary within the TransDigm corporate structure. Historical descriptions emphasize Servotronics’ role as a supplier of servo-control components and other advanced technology products for aerospace and defense applications, and its long-standing manufacturing presence in Western New York.
Business focus and applications
Company descriptions in merger-related communications state that Servotronics designs, develops, and manufactures servo controls and other components used in commercial and government programs. These applications include aircraft, jet engines, missiles, manufacturing equipment and other aerospace uses. Servotronics’ products were described as highly engineered, proprietary components with significant aftermarket content and a strong presence across major aerospace and defense platforms, with a substantial portion of revenues derived from the commercial aerospace end market.
Earlier corporate descriptions, such as those reflected in third-party summaries, also characterize Servotronics as a designer, developer, and manufacturer of high-quality components, systems, and sub-systems used where precise control, reliability, and cost containment are primary requirements. Examples of product categories mentioned in those summaries include servocontrol valves, torque motors, actuators, check valves, pressure regulators, metallic seals and other components used in a wide range of control applications.
Corporate history and status
Servotronics was founded in 1959 and operated for decades as an independent manufacturer before its acquisition by TransDigm. Prior to the merger, Servotronics’ common stock was listed on NYSE American under the symbol SVT. The company’s board of directors announced a review of strategic alternatives in March 2025, engaging an investment bank and legal counsel to evaluate options that could include investments of capital, a sale of the company, or continuing on its existing path. That process ultimately led to the merger agreement with TransDigm announced in May 2025.
The July 1, 2025 Form 8-K records the completion of the tender offer and the subsequent merger, the change in control, the termination of certain company plans and agreements in connection with the closing, and the transition of board and officer positions to individuals associated with the TransDigm merger subsidiary. The Form 25 dated July 1, 2025 and the Form 15 dated July 11, 2025 document the delisting and deregistration of Servotronics’ common stock and the suspension of its reporting obligations.
