TransDigm Inc.
By: Eric Van den Steen, Kavita Mathews and Alon Galor
Abstract
Transdigm had been very successful with a PE-like business model: it acquired smaller producers of aircraft components and improved their profits, mainly by increasing efficiency and applying value pricing. By 2014, Transdigm had completed almost 50 acquisitions. Its stock price had vastly outperformed the market, nearly quadrupling over the last 5 years. But was Transdigm's model sustainable for the longer term?
