CalAmp, Inc. (“CalAmp”), a telematics company that provides products and solutions that help organizations monitor, track and protect vital assets, is pleased to announce that it is now a private company owned by Lynrock Lake Master Fund LP (“Lynrock Lake” or “Lynrock”), a fund managed by Lynrock Lake LP. This significant milestone marks a new beginning for CalAmp and reflects the company's robust commitment to innovation and sustainable profitable growth.

Swift Restructuring and Strong Financial Position

CalAmp announced on June 3rd that to most efficiently complete the go-private transaction, the company had voluntarily initiated Chapter 11 proceedings. The plan was confirmed by the court on July 11th. During the restructuring process, CalAmp remained steadfast in its mission to deliver leading solutions that empower businesses and improve lives through differentiated telematics offerings. The restructuring process enabled CalAmp to fortify its balance sheet by eliminating $230 million of debt, enhance its cash flow generation, and strengthen its operational efficiency. The company achieved positive quarter-over-quarter revenue growth and improved profitability in its most recently completed fiscal quarter, prior to realizing the benefits of the restructuring. CalAmp is positioned to be a strong, long-term partner with the resources to invest in strategic initiatives that drive technological advancements and expand its market presence.  

Leadership and Vision

Under the new leadership of CEO Chris Adams and the dedicated executive team, CalAmp navigated the restructuring process without disrupting its operations. “We are excited to emerge from restructuring with renewed vigor and a clear path forward,” said Adams. “This restructuring provides us with the financial flexibility to pursue new opportunities, invest in profitable growth, enhance our product offerings, and deliver even greater value to our customers.”

“I would like to thank CalAmp’s employees, customers, partners, and stakeholders for facilitating a swift and successful restructuring process,” said Cynthia Paul, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer of Lynrock Lake LP and Chairperson of the new board of directors of CalAmp. “When I look at CalAmp, I see the ingredients required for long-term success: critical technology that enables IoT, a compelling product portfolio, differentiated solutions, a strong customer base, a talented team, and exposure to growing markets. Lynrock has been invested in CalAmp for nearly six years. I am excited to partner with management on this next chapter of the company’s evolution in order to capitalize on the large and growing opportunity ahead of the company.”

Innovation and Market Expansion

CalAmp remains committed to its core values of innovation, customer focus, and operational excellence. The company will continue to leverage its expertise in telematics devices and solutions to develop innovative offerings that address the evolving needs of its global customer base across various industries, including transportation, government, education, and industrial markets. As CalAmp embarks on this new stage, it will continue to foster strong relationships and deliver exceptional value to all its customers.
