<a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/deals/apollo-global-talks-buy-aerospace-parts-maker-barnes-group-sources-say-2024-10-03/">https://www.reuters.com/markets/deals/apollo-global-talks-buy-aerospace-parts-maker-barnes-group-sources-say-2024-10-03/</a>
&nbsp;
Private equity firm Apollo Global Management &nbsp;is in talks to acquire Barnes Group, a manufacturer of aerospace components with a market value of about $2 billion, people familiar with the matter said on Thursday.
Bristol, Connecticut-based Barnes is negotiating granting exclusivity to Apollo, which is set to prevail over other buyout firms that were also vying for the company, the sources said, requesting anonymity as the discussions are confidential.
The deal is likely to value Barnes at more than $45 per share, one of the sources said. The company's shares, which have risen about 25% since the start of the year, closed at about $40 apiece on Thursday.
If the talks are successful, a deal could be signed in the coming weeks, the sources said, cautioning a transaction is not guaranteed and another suitor could emerge if the talks with Apollo fall apart.
The company did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Apollo declined to comment.
Founded in 1857, Barnes is a maker of components for companies in sectors such as packaging, healthcare, aerospace, consumer, and electronics. Barnes' aerospace unit makes parts for commercial and military turbine engines, while its industrials unit develops molding and automation solutions for various industries.
Barnes has about 5,700 employees and operates 43 manufacturing locations, according to its website.
In the quarter ended June 30, Barnes reported a net loss of $46.8 million and revenue growth of 12% to $382.2 million, which fell short of analysts' expectations.
Activist investor Irenic Capital took a stake in Barnes in 2022 and pushed the company to shake up its board and explore a strategic review. In March, Barnes entered into a cooperation agreement with Irenic and appointed its co-founder Adam Katz to its board of directors.
&nbsp;
Apollo has been an active acquirer of companies in the industrials sector in recent years. Last year, Apollo struck an $8.1 billion deal to acquire chemical company Univar Solutions. It also agreed to buy industrial components maker Arconic for about $3 billion last year.
Bloomberg reported in June that Barnes was exploring strategic options including a sale.

Phoenix Motor Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PEV#NASDAQ">PEV</a>) shares are trading higher premarket on Friday after the company reported a substantial <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/10/ac41174162/phoenix-motor-reports-record-9-4-million-revenue-and-14-8-million-net-income-for-first-quarter-of" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">increase in the first-quarter results</a>.
Net revenues rose to $9.4 million from $1.8 million in the prior year quarter. Gross profit was $2.5 million vs. $0.2 million in the prior year quarter. EPS increased to $0.44 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">from a loss of $0.13 in the prior year period</a>.
Denton Peng, CEO of Phoenix Motor, said, &#8220;Our substantial net income improvement was driven by a significant bargain purchase gain from our recent acquisition of Proterra&#8217;s Transit business, which was acquired for considerably below its fair market value.&#8221;
Total assets increased to&nbsp;$78.7 million from&nbsp;$11.6 million&nbsp;at December 31, 2023.
In April, Phoenix Motor disclosed its plans to create an Artificial Intelligence (AI)&nbsp;development <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/04/38245671/why-phoenix-motor-shares-are-surging-premarket-monday" rel="noreferrer noopener">center in Silicon Valley, California</a>.&nbsp;
Earlier this year, the company inked an Integration Agreement with InductEV to develop software, hardware, and, cooling and electrical systems integration of InductEV's wireless charging pads with its&nbsp;zero-emission drive systems.&nbsp;
&#8220;Combined with strategic initiatives, including new product launches and key partnerships, we expect to drive accelerating momentum across all of our business segments, positioning us well for long-term growth in the rapidly evolving electric vehicle sector,&#8221; Peng added.

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has opened an investigation into 368,309 units of model year 2015-2017 of Ford Motor Co.&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) Edge SUVs over concerns of loss of braking ability, the U.S. auto safety regulator said on Friday.
What Happened: The NHTSA opened the investigation after it received 36 complaints alleging a loss of braking ability owing to a rear brake hose failure. The loss of braking ability, the regulator said, happens without warnings and results in an increase in stopping distance.
The investigation, the NHTSA said, is to determine the scope and severity of the alleged problem and to assess if any safety-related consequences exist owing to the issue.
Why It Matters: Ford sold <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41144884/fords-us-sales-edge-up-in-q3-ev-sales-continue-to-climb">504,039 vehicles in the U.S.</a> in the third quarter, marking an increase of 0.7% from the corresponding period last year.

Partnership brings leading security technology and best-in-class live event guest experience to new international golf league
Evolv Technology (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVLV#NASDAQ">EVLV</a>), a leading security technology company pioneering AI-based solutions designed to help create safer experiences, today announced a new partnership with Boston Common Golf, one of six teams in TGL presented by SoFi, the new golf league created by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy in conjunction with the PGA TOUR.
Evolv is now an "Official Partner of Boston Common Golf," who will use the Evolv Express&#x2122; systems to screen guests upon entry to SoFi Center, the new purpose-built venue at which Boston Common Golf and the other TGL teams will play their matches. SoFi Center, located in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., is a tech infused, custom-built arena with more than 1,500 fans wrapped around TGL's field of play, which is about the size of a football field. Fans will watch as players hit their shots from real grass and sand boxes to play custom-designed, virtual holes projected onto a 3,400-square-foot screen (64'x53'), nearly 24 times larger than a standard golf simulator screen (16'x9').
Each TGL team is comprised of four PGA TOUR players. The Boston Common Golf roster includes Rory McIlroy, Keegan Bradley, Adam Scott, and Hideki Matsuyama. TGL matches will start in January on ESPN.

This signifies a substantial increase in the company's top-line earnings. When compared to others in the Consumer Discretionary sector, the company excelled with a growth rate higher than the average among peers.

<h2>Understanding the Relevance of Analyst Ratings</h2>
Within the domain of banking and financial systems, analysts specialize in reporting for specific stocks or defined sectors. Their work involves attending company conference calls and meetings, researching company financial statements, and communicating with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically assess and rate each stock once per quarter.
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.
