McKean Closes Buy of Systems Monitoring Tech Firm Mikros; Joseph Carlini Quoted

McKean Defense Group has wrapped up its purchase of Mikros Systems for approximately $4.6 million, or 13 cents per share, through a cash transaction first announced in November.

Chuck Bristow will continue to serve as president of Mikros, which develops software and hardware for condition-based, preventive and planned maintenance tasks, McKean Defense said Monday.

The deal was McKean’s first acquisition and part of its push to grow diagnostic analytics and systems monitoring offerings for the Navy.
