In today’s reshoring-driven manufacturing environment, demand for high-precision, domestic aerospace and defense suppliers has never been stronger. Nexus Automation represents a rare opportunity to acquire a scalable, engineering-driven contract manufacturing platform serving some of the most technically demanding industries in the United States.
Based in Livermore, California, Nexus Automation is a U.S.-based precision contract manufacturing company providing integrated design support, machining, fabrication, and assembly for complex, tight tolerance components.
A Single-Source Manufacturing Partner for High-Complexity Programs
Unlike fragmented job shops that handle isolated machining tasks, Nexus operates as a true single-source manufacturing partner. The company supports customers from early-stage design and prototyping through full-scale production programs.
Its integrated model combines:
- Engineering collaboration and design support
- Precision CNC machining
- Fabrication
- Assembly
This unified structure enables faster quoting, tighter engineering communication, and greater accountability across the entire product lifecycle.
For OEMs consolidating supplier bases and prioritizing reliable domestic partners, this integrated capability is a significant competitive advantage.
Strong Positioning in Aerospace, Defense & Advanced Technology
Nexus Automation specializes in technically demanding aerospace, defense, advanced mobility, semiconductor, and government projects.
The company has established relationships with leading OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers, including:
- Archer Aviation
- Raytheon
- Tesla
- Intel
- U.S. government–affiliated research and defense initiatives
Engagements often begin with smaller prototype or specialty programs and expand into recurring production contracts. The company has supported work connected to next-generation missile defense and other mission-critical national defense systems.
For strategic buyers seeking entry or expansion into aerospace and defense manufacturing, Nexus offers both credibility and proven execution in regulated, high-stakes environments.
Financial Snapshot & Growth Outlook
Nexus Automation generated $1.69M in revenue in 2025, with projected 2026 revenue ranging between $2.2M and $4.6M.
The company reported 2025 net income of $304,519.
This trajectory reflects increasing demand in core end markets and provides a clear path for accelerated growth under expanded capital, strategic partnerships, or operational scale.
The investment thesis is supported by:
- Durable aerospace and defense demand
- Onshoring initiatives favoring domestic manufacturers
- Established Fortune 500 and mission-critical customer relationships
- An integrated, defensible operating model
