This transaction aims to support a new stage in Coraxes\u2019 development, as the company positions itself as a leading player in a sector undergoing consolidation.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>A long-standing industrial player in promising sectors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Founded 50 years ago and based in Planco\u00ebt (C\u00f4tes-d\u2019Armor), Coraxes has established itself as a recognized player in high value-added precision engineering. The company designs a wide range of small technical components, individually or in series, for the defense, aerospace, space, and nuclear sectors. It also offers a complete range of machining-related services. ISO 9001 certified since 2003, it has earned the trust of major contractors such as Leach International, Galileo, the CEA, and OneWeb, thanks to the rigor of its processes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Supported by a team of 30 highly qualified employees and equipped with a robotic fleet of around thirty machines, the company produces nearly 300,000 parts per year thanks to its proven expertise and agile industrial organization. Led by Rodolphe Henry since 2020, Coraxes forecasts revenues of nearly \u20ac5 million in 2025, with more than 25% generated in the defense sector.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>A transaction to capture market momentum<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Demand for industrial mechanics in the aerospace, defense, and nuclear sectors is on the rise. In Brittany, the defense market accounts for 30,000 industrial jobs spread across 400 companies. The company aims to position itself in this fragmented market, which has high barriers to entry, particularly due to the investments required.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-start=\"184\" data-end=\"598\">With this transaction, Coraxes secures additional financing to support growth, strengthen its industrial resources, particularly through the acquisition of new production equipment, and pursue an external growth strategy starting in 2026. Sodero is taking a minority stake alongside management and CITA, which has held a stake in the company since 2020. Key executives are also acquiring a stake in the company.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-start=\"600\" data-end=\"656\">The transaction was advised by Largilli\u00e8re Finance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>An investment aligned with Sodero\u2019s strategy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With its strong local presence, Sodero is ideally positioned to meet the equity financing needs of growing SMEs and SMIs. Coraxes, which combines technical expertise, a strong regional footprint, and ambitious growth plans, embodies the industrial and territorial values that Sodero seeks to support. The development project led by Rodolphe Henry and his teams fits perfectly with Sodero\u2019s investment strategy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","secteur":[40],"expertise":[88],"class_list":["post-10552","transaction","type-transaction","status-publish","hentry","secteur-industry","expertise-lbo-mbo-obo-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Second LBO of Coraxes with Sodero and CITA - Largilli\u00e8re<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/largilliere-finance.com\/en\/transaction\/second-lbo-of-coraxes-with-sodero-and-cita\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Second LBO of Coraxes with Sodero and CITA - Largilli\u00e8re\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Sodero, a private equity firm based in Western France, announces a minority stake in Coraxes, a Breton specialist in precision engineering, alongside the management team and CITA.
