Acquisition. ACCO is acquiring EPOS, which provides a comprehensive range of premium enterprise wired and wireless headsets, and other audio solutions. The transaction enhances and broadens ACCO’s Kensington computer accessories portfolio into the large global enterprise headset category, estimated at $1.7 billion in size. We believe the acquisition aligns with management’s strategy to invest in markets with better growth profiles. The addition of EPOS will allow ACCO to deliver a more complete line of workspace technology accessory solutions to enterprise customers.

Details. The transaction is valued at $11.7 million, including up to $3.5 million in deferred payments, and will be funded by existing cash resources. The deal is expected to close in January 2026. EPOS generates approximately $80 million in annual revenue. ACCO expects to achieve cost synergies in the range of $10-$15 million over the next two years. ACCO expects to take approximately $7 million of restructuring charges.
