Trive Capital (“Trive”), the Dallas-based private equity firm, is pleased to announce that its portfolio company, NxEdge, Inc. (“NxEdge”), has acquired the assets of Flex’s Morgan Hill facility (“Morgan Hill”). Based in Morgan Hill, CA, the facility provides machining and assembly capabilities to the semiconductor tool market, often as the prime supplier in the tool and component supply chain. Morgan Hill complements NxEdge’s existing product offering which includes custom machining, anodizing & plating, coating, cleaning and assembly services to equipment manufacturers (OEMs), and OEM-quality refurbishment services to IDMs & Foundries.

David Stinnett, Partner at Trive Capital, shared, “The Morgan Hill transaction is an example of Trive’s ability to execute on a complex, corporate carve-out and operationally resource a facility like Morgan Hill to capitalize on its potential. The transaction adds a critical element to our strategic positioning within the semiconductor tool supply chain and we look forward to partnering with the NxEdge team on realizing value through a shared commitment to safety, quality and best-in-class customer service and delivery.”
