British investor Rosebank advances $3.05bn bid for CPM and MW Industries

Rosebank plans to fund the transactions through an equity raise of approximately £1.9bn ($2.59bn), supplemented by debt financing.
The firm, which focuses on acquiring, enhancing, and ultimately exiting businesses, completed its first deal since going public in 2024 with the $1.9bn acquisition of Electrical Components International in August 2025.
If completed, the $3.05bn transaction would represent a material scale-up in Rosebank’s investment profile and further crystallise value for American Securities, which currently owns CPM and MW Industries.
Separately, Rosebank confirmed plans to transfer its listing from London’s Alternative Investment Market to the Main Market in Q2, irrespective of whether the US deals proceed, signalling confidence in its growth trajectory and capital markets positioning.
For private equity sellers, the potential disposal highlights continued appetite from listed investment vehicles for US industrial and manufacturing assets at scale, even amid broader market volatility.
