CUBIC, founded in 1973, serves industries such as renewable Acquire CUBICenergy, data centers, and infrastructure, and is headquartered in Bronderslev, Denmark.

Additionally, CUBIC will help to broaden Rockwell Automation’s market access in renewable energy and data center solutions.

After the acquisition is completed, CUBIC will report to Rockwell Automation’s Power Control Business in the Intelligent Devices operating segment.

CUBIC is expected to report more than $75 million in sales in fiscal year 2022, which ended Sept. 30. The transaction is subject to customary regulatory approval and is expected to close by the end of 2022.
