NSI Industries Acquired by Sentinel Capital Partners

6566 NSI Industries NT

M&A Engagement Overview

Industry Group: Industrials
Area of Focus: Engineered Equipment, Products & Components 

Harris Williams advised NSI Industries, LLC, a portfolio company of Odyssey Investment Partners, LLC, on their sale to Sentinel Capital Partners. NSI is a leading provider of branded electrical and HVAC products.    

NSI provides branded replenishment components for the electrical and HVAC markets across the U.S. and Canada. The company’s products are known for their reliability, innovation, and quality and are sold through leading electrical and HVAC distributors in North America to professional contractors who use these products across a wide variety of job types and end markets.  

NSI underwent transformational growth under Odyssey’s ownership, including strengthening their operations, deepening their customer relationships, and investing in world-class talent. The company is recognized as a best-in-class partner to distributors due to their scale, skilled team, and deep product portfolio. Sentinel has extensive experience in the industrials space, and they will be an excellent partner to NSI as the company enters its next phase of growth.   

NSI was highly attractive to investors given several secular tailwinds in the North American electrical and HVAC components market, including increasing electrification, infrastructure buildout, and expanding regulatory requirements. It was a pleasure to work with Odyssey and the NSI management team on another successful engagement, and we look forward to seeing what NSI accomplishes in their next chapter with Sentinel.
