Endurance’s Power Play: Full Control of Maxwell Sparks EV Tech Ambitions

Endurance Technologies Ltd has made a strong move towards cementing its foothold in the advanced electronics segment by purchasing an additional 5.5% equity interest in Maxwell Energy Systems Private Limited for ₹7,535, bringing its overall stake to 61.5%. This final tranche, done on July 31, 2024, is part of a staged process to ultimately take over the whole remaining 38.5% stake in Maxwell within the next three financial years.

Key Highlights:

The purchase was made as a secondary acquisition from ION Energy, Inc., in which shares were bought at ₹1 per share, based on a valuation method specified in the initial Share Subscription and Purchase Agreement (SSPA) of May 2022.

Maxwell Energy Systems focuses on embedded electronics and battery management systems (BMS) for electric vehicles and stationary storage, fitting Endurance's strategic initiative into next-generation mobility and energy storage solutions.

This step is a follow-up to earlier stakes increase, where Endurance raised its holding from 51% to 56% in 2023 and now to 61.5%, reflecting its dedication to intensifying technological abilities.

The company will buy out the rest of the stake in yearly tranches, solidifying its long-term focus on innovation and leadership within the EV environment.

This deal did not necessitate any regulatory approvals, and all consideration was made in cash.

By consolidating its hold on Maxwell, Endurance Technologies is placing itself at the center of India's rapidly changing electric mobility space.
