Cosonic Acquires Beyerdynamic
Chinese audio company Cosonic has acquired Beyerdynamic for approximately $140 million. This acquisition marks the end of Beyerdynamic’s century-long private, family ownership.
Under the new ownership, the Beyer family will step away from the company, but the existing management team will remain intact. Beyerdynamic’s headquarters in Long Island, New York, will also continue operating without changes to staff or structure.
“The acquisition of Cosonic affords Beyerdynamic the financial resources to continue to grow,” Richard Campbell, Beyerdynamic North America’s managing director told Music Inc. “We’ve launched more products in the last year than we have in quite some time. This acquisition gives us the financial resources to continue to be able to do that. Cosonic wants to continue the history and the legacy of what we’ve been building — and do more of it.”
Cosonic, a publicly traded company in China, issued a press release announcing the acquisition roughly two weeks ago, confirming the deal and its value. The acquisition is expected to strengthen both companies’ global reach while maintaining the integrity of the Beyerdynamic brand.
