Positive Impact 3 of 5 m&a Written later

ACCO Brands agreed to acquire Trust, a European computer and gaming accessories provider, from Egeria in a deal valued at approximately $57 million. The company says the deal extends its technology peripherals business, which would reach about $500 million in annual sales on a pro forma basis.

Key points

  • Deal value is approximately $57 million; Trust generates approximately $100 million in annual revenue.
  • Trust is expected to be modestly accretive to adjusted EPS in the first 12 months; cost synergies of approximately $5 to $8 million are expected within 18 months after closing.
  • Financing will come from borrowings under ACCO Brands' revolving credit facility; closing is expected in late third quarter or early fourth quarter 2026, subject to competition authority approvals.
