Linkers Industries Limited (NASDAQ: LNKS), a manufacturer and supplier of wire and cable harnesses, announced it has signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding (MOU) to acquire additional equity interests in LPW Electronics Co. Ltd., a Thailand-based electronics company. The proposed transaction could increase Linkers’ ownership from its current 20% stake to up to 49%, subject to due diligence, a definitive agreement, and required approvals.
The move is intended to expand Linkers’ manufacturing capabilities and scale through LPW’s 6,500-square-meter facility, which serves multinational automotive and industrial customers. Management noted that the potential acquisition could enhance earnings visibility and support the company’s growth as a multinational wire harness manufacturer.

However, the non-binding nature of the MOU means the deal is not yet finalized, and investors will watch for further developments as due diligence progresses.
