AEVEX Corp. (AVEX) completed its previously announced acquisition of Maritime Applied Physics, LLC (BlackSea Technologies) on September 8, 2026 under a reorganization agreement valued at a total enterprise value of $600,000,000, subject to customary adjustments. At closing, the seller received 12,727,273 Class A shares valued at $350,000,000 plus cash, with up to $5,000,000 held in an adjustment escrow for post-closing working capital and other true-ups.
The seller may earn up to an additional $50,000,000 in contingent consideration in AEVEX stock if, by December 31, 2027, AEVEX’s 30-trading-day VWAP reaches at least $28.00 and BlackSea meets specified revenue and gross profit targets on U.S. government autonomous vessel contracts. Total shares issued in the transaction are capped so that all stock consideration does not exceed 19.99% of AEVEX’s outstanding capital stock.
BlackSea becomes AEVEX’s Maritime Systems division, led by former BlackSea CEO Bob Pudney. The companies highlight BlackSea’s delivery of 350+ unmanned surface vessels, 25,000+ operational hours, and ~40 USVs per month production capacity, combined with AEVEX’s more than 10,000 systems delivered and committed through 2026 and 114% year-over-year production volume growth in Q2, positioning the combined business as a multi-domain autonomous systems provider across air, surface, and subsea domains.
AEVEX Corp. entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization to acquire Maritime Applied Physics Corporation / BlackSea Technologies through a two-step merger structure, valuing the target at an enterprise value of $600,000,000, subject to customary net working capital, cash, debt and transaction expense adjustments.
At closing, the seller will receive 12,727,273 AEVEX Class A shares deemed worth $350,000,000 plus cash equal to the adjusted merger consideration minus a $5,000,000 adjustment escrow and the stock value, with total consideration structured so that equity does not exceed 19.99% of AEVEX’s outstanding stock. The seller may earn up to an additional $50,000,000 in contingent stock consideration if AEVEX’s 30‑day volume weighted average price reaches $28.00 per share and specified revenue and gross profit thresholds are met by year‑end 2027 under defined U.S. government contracts. AEVEX plans to fund the cash portion with cash on hand and existing credit facilities, and closing is subject to antitrust clearance, NYSE listing approval, completion of a pre‑closing restructuring and other customary conditions.
