Sept 8 — GE Aerospace said ​on Tuesday it would buy castings ‌maker Consolidated Precision Products from ⁠investment firms ​Warburg Pincus ⁠and Berkshire Partners ‌for $11.75 billion, ‌in a bid to ⁠expand ⁠its supply-chain capabilities.

"Investing in mission-critical casting capacity is needed to support the strong simultaneous ‌demand across ​commercial engines, aftermarket and defense," CEO Larry Culp said.

The deal, likely to close in the second half of ​2027, is ‌expected to ‌boost ⁠GE Aerospace's adjusted profit per share and free cash flow in ‌the first ​year.
