H.I.G. Capital completes acquisition of International Aerospace Coatings
Summary: H.I.G. Capital announced that one of its affiliates completed the acquisition of International Aerospace Coatings. The manager-hosted release is the source for the transaction fact; ADV context is useful only for public adviser identity and platform scale.
Why it matters: A fresh acquisition in aerospace services gives diligence readers a public signal about deployment activity, sector focus, and portfolio-company monitoring questions at H.I.G., without implying investment merit or performance.
Summary
H.I.G. Capital announced that one of its affiliates completed the acquisition of International Aerospace Coatings. The company is described by H.I.G. as an aerospace-services provider, and the transaction details should remain attributed to the manager-hosted release.
For publication, this item should be framed as a source-backed portfolio acquisition update. It should not be read as 9AT validation of transaction terms, portfolio quality, or future performance.
Why it matters
For due-diligence readers, a fresh acquisition can help track where a private-equity platform is deploying capital and which sectors are appearing in current manager activity. The aerospace-services angle may shape follow-up questions about industrial services exposure, operational value-creation plans, and how the investment fits H.I.G.’s broader private-equity platform.
The update is a public monitoring signal, not a recommendation to invest with or avoid the manager.

9AT filing context
Public ADV/profile context maps H.I.G. Capital, LLC to CRD 160711 / SEC file 801-74338, with about $72.3 billion in reported regulatory AUM/profile scale, 231 private funds, 1,039 employees, separately managed account activity, and public website domain hig.com.

What to watch
Watch for public follow-on disclosures about IAC’s integration plan, additional aerospace-services investments, portfolio-company leadership updates, and any future H.I.G. releases that clarify the strategy behind the sector exposure.
