ASSA ABLOY has signed an agreement to acquire Mercury Security, an OEM supplier of controllers for physical access control.
 
“Mercury Security is a strategic technological addition to the ASSA ABLOY Group. The company reinforces our current offering, where Mercury Security considerably enhances the group’s position within physical access control and will provide complementary growth opportunities,” said Johan Molin, president and CEO of ASSA ABLOY.
 
“The acquisition of Mercury Security will advance HID‘s global leadership in the physical access control industry, adding Mercury Security’s high-quality controllers to HID’s product portfolio while extending HID’s installed base of millions of users beyond the readers and smart cards that we are already well known for,” added Stefan Widing, president and CEO of HID Global.
 
Mercury Security was founded in 1992. It is headquartered in Long Beach, CA and has approximately 45 employees. Sales for 2017 are expected to reach USD $60 million (approximately SEK 500 million) with a good EBIT margin. 
 
The transaction is conditional upon regulatory approval and satisfaction of customary closing conditions and is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2017
