BWXT Enters Agreement to Acquire Kinectrics, a Leading Service Provider to the Global Nuclear Market

07 January 2025

• Investment creates a comprehensive portfolio of end-to-end lifecycle services for customers in the small modular reactor and traditional large-scale nuclear reactor markets
• Expands the company's presence in fast-growing areas, including clean energy, energy security and the rising demand for nuclear technologies
• BWXT to hold a conference call on January 7, 2025, at 8:30 a.m. E.T.

(LYNCHBURG, Va. - Jan. 7, 2025) - BWX Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: BWXT) today announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire Kinectrics, Inc., for approximately US$525 million, including assumption of Kinectrics' net pension and debt liabilities, and estimated transaction expenses. Kinectrics is a leader in providing lifecycle management services for the global nuclear power and transmission and distribution markets, and in the production and supply of isotopes for the radiopharmaceutical industry.

The acquisition is highly complementary to BWXT's Commercial Operations segment and will enable an expanded portfolio of products and services for current and new customers in the global nuclear power and radiopharmaceutical industries. In the commercial nuclear power market, Kinectrics brings a broad suite of lifecycle support services that will further strengthen BWXT's position in the CANDU reactor market, while increasing its exposure to the U.S. market and select international markets. In nuclear medicine, Kinectrics offers additional isotope irradiation and production technologies, and has played a critical role in the existing Lutetium-177 supply chain since 2022. Kinectrics employs over 1,300 engineers and technical experts located across its 20 sites worldwide.

"This acquisition expands our ability to deliver end-to-end solutions to existing and new customers more efficiently," said John MacQuarrie, president of BWXT Commercial Operations. "The investment uniquely brings together two industry leaders with complementary expertise and service offerings in the growing commercial nuclear power and nuclear medicine markets. With the talented team joining from Kinectrics, we are strengthening our ability to meet our customers' evolving needs. This includes supporting utilities as they explore ways to expand nuclear power generation through life extensions and new builds, partnering with small modular reactor designers seeking comprehensive regulatory, engineering, manufacturing, and aftermarket solutions, and collaborating with healthcare partners who require reliable isotopes for under-supplied medical isotopes revolutionizing oncology."

Kinectrics, headquartered in Toronto, Canada, is expected to generate revenue of approximately US$300 million in 2024 in two core business areas: commercial power services and nuclear medicine.

• Commercial power services provides support for all stages of the nuclear power plant lifecycle and other areas of the related grid ecosystem, including initial design and engineering, operational support and maintenance services, as well as transmission and distribution reliability services.
• Nuclear medicine includes isotope production services for the radiopharmaceutical industry, including Isogen, a joint venture between Kinectrics and Framatome.

Upon close, the acquisition will nearly double the workforce of BWXT's Commercial Operations and expand its capabilities, including lifecycle management, specialized plant services and engineering, to support the North American and international nuclear markets.

The acquisition is targeted to close in the middle of 2025 and is expected to be modestly accretive to BWXT's earnings, excluding purchase accounting and other one-time costs. Following the close, Kinectrics will operate as a BWXT subsidiary, and its financial results will be reported within BWXT's Commercial Operations segment.

David Harris, President & CEO of Kinectrics, will continue to lead the organization and will report to John MacQuarrie, President of BWXT Commercial Operations.

This investment is one of BWXT's strategic steps in response to current and anticipated demand for nuclear projects and services worldwide. Earlier this year, BWXT announced a US$60 million expansion at its facility in Cambridge, Ontario, to increase the plant's footprint by 25 percent and create more than 200 long-term jobs for skilled workers, engineers and support staff in the area.
