Based in Los Angeles, California, Architect Equity is focused on acquiring and managing businesses in the lower middle market.

The firm provides immediate liquidity solutions to public and private business owners.

Following the acquisition, Aeromatrix will remain based in Clearwater, Florida.

Architect Equity managing director Dionisio Lucchesi said: “We are pleased to complete the acquisition of Aeromatrix Composites and we are excited to partner with the management team.

“Architect looks forward to bringing our financial and operational resources to fully support the company’s growth plans.”

In May, AAR reportedly closed its maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) facility in Duluth, Minnesota, US, and furloughed the majority of its employees after a drop in airline travel impacted its business due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
