Industry: Automotive Parts, September 2004

 

Investment Type: Growth Capital

 

Company Description: MAG Ltd develops, produces, and markets mechanical and electro-mechanical sub-assemblies for the automotive industry. Its main product, a spare tire hoist, is sold directly to GM for six light truck and SUV platforms and accounts for about one third of the global spare tire hoist market. Over two thirds of MAG's production is done in its U.S. plant in Tennessee which began operating in 2002. The company has built a strong manufacturing and cost-control culture and recently expanded its product line through additional assignments from GM. Shamrock believes MAG Ltd has a solid track record, good management, and promising opportunities for growth through product line extensions, OEM relationships and geographic expansion.

 

Transaction: Shamrock acquired its stake in MAG Ltd. in a structured transaction with a milestone based call/put option that would increase its investment over time. Shamrock is currently working with MAG management to develop its expansion plans.
