GMM Pfaudler, through its wholly owned Brazilian subsidiary Pfaudler Ltda., has signed an agreement to acquire 100% of SEMCO Tecnologia em Processos Ltda., a Brazil-based industrial mixing and process technology company founded in 1953. The deal is valued at USD 18.5 million (approximately INR 158 crores) on a cash and debt-free basis, to be funded through internal accruals and debt. SEMCO reported net sales of BRL 85.19 million (around INR 132.74 crores) in CY2024 and serves industries such as metals & minerals, renewable fuels, water & wastewater, and chemicals. The acquisition is expected to close in Q2 FY26 and is not a related party transaction.
This acquisition strengthens GMM Pfaudler's mixing technologies platform and gives it a stronger foothold in the fast-growing South American market, potentially adding to revenue and geographic diversification for shareholders. The deal is being funded through a mix of internal accruals and debt, which may slightly increase leverage but appears manageable given SEMCO's size relative to the acquisition price.
