Mar 11, 2025 6:32 AM

Eaton Corporation ( ETN ) , a global intelligent power management company, has agreed to acquire Fibrebond Corporation for $1.4 billion.

Based in Louisiana, Fibrebond specializes in modular power enclosures for data centers and industrial markets and is projected to generate approximately $378 million in revenue in the 12 months ended Feb. 28.

The acquisition is expected to contribute $110 million in adjusted EBITDA in 2025 and be earnings-per-share-neutral for Eaton that year. The deal is anticipated to close in the third quarter of 2025, pending customary closing conditions.

Mike Yelton, president of Eaton’s Americas Region, Electrical Sector, highlighted Fibrebond’s strong engineering expertise and customer-centric approach, particularly in the multi-tenant data center space. “Its engineered-to-order power enclosures, in which equipment installation and testing procedures are performed off-site, enables customers to get up-and-running in less time and at a lower cost,” he said. “This full-service offering allows us to better serve our customers amid accelerating demand.”

Recently, Eaton’s board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $1.04 per share, up 11% from the previous quarter. The dividend will be paid on March 28, to shareholders of record as of March 10.

Price Action: At the last check Tuesday, ETN shares were trading higher by 0.86% at $280 premarket.
