Samlex is a Canadian headquartered power electronics business supplying inverters, chargers and DC power products to fleet, RV and marine customers across North America. The acquisition gives REDARC an established North American manufacturing and distribution base and extends its power management range into new customer segments.
REDARC engaged Nash Advisory as buy-side financial adviser. Nash prepared the North American acquisition long list, screening over 1,000 companies, then ran commercial due diligence and supported the negotiation through to completion on 19 September 2026.

Crown Coaches
Founded in 1967, Crown Coaches is a third-generation, family-owned school bus and charter operator and one of Australia’s most respected school transport businesses. In addition to providing charter services to corporate clients and private groups, Crown Coaches is one of the largest providers of specialist transport services for students with disability. The business has also been an early adopter of electric buses, supported by a strong focus on fleet management, route optimisation and data-driven operational efficiency.
Nash Advisory was appointed as the exclusive sell-side adviser to Crown Coaches, managing the sale process from initial preparation through to completion. Nash undertook a detailed analysis of the company's fleet, school bus contracts, route network and charter operations to develop a comprehensive financial and operational profile. This work highlighted the strength of Crown Coaches' longstanding customer relationships, established revenue base, specialist transport capabilities and opportunities for future growth.
Crown Coaches was successfully acquired by Ventura, one of Victoria's leading bus operators, as part of its strategy to expand its school transport operations and strengthen its specialist service capabilities. Crown Coaches' established school contracts, extensive fleet and leading position in transporting students with disability represented key strategic attractions for Ventura, providing opportunities to expand its network and realise operational synergies.
The transaction was led by Tom Butler, Managing Director of Nash Advisory.
Volta Energy Group
Volta Energy Group is a leading Australian energy advisory, design, project delivery, and high-voltage commissioning business, with a strong reputation for supporting complex renewable energy, transmission, datacentre, and broader energy infrastructure projects. The company has established itself as a trusted partner to developers, asset owners, and contractors across Australia’s rapidly evolving energy sector.
The shareholders of Volta Energy Group engaged Nash Advisory to act as exclusive sell-side adviser in connection with the sale of the business. The transaction represented a significant milestone for Volta and provided the business with access to an international platform, resources, and client relationships, positioning the combined group to capitalise on growing investment in renewable energy, transmission infrastructure, datacentres, and the broader energy transition across Australia and New Zealand.
Volta was acquired by the UK-based OCU Group, a leading infrastructure services business backed by Triton Partners.
The transaction was led by Thomas Butler, with support from Lachlan Posar, Jock Mitchell, and Josephine Ung.

What our clients say
Working with Nash was an absolute pleasure. They were at all times completely responsible and accountable to everything that we needed. Their strong financial acumen was incredibly important throughout the whole process. It was really important that they were able to truly articulate the value of the business in its current state and also look and really delve into the potential future alternate uses for the business…We were really happy with the interest that Nash generated. So we had multiple seriously interested parties, which created that competitive tension that you really need in a deal and was able to achieve the outcome that we wanted and that we expected.
After that first meeting it was clearly evident that the team at Nash were the right partner for us. They showed knowledge of the sector during that first meeting and I guess in every sort of situation, people buy people, and we certainly bought into Tom and Kieran during that first meeting in Melbourne.
Nash have made it seamless for us and most importantly now the ownership is actually sitting within Australia rather than an international operator. So we’re really pleased with that outcome.
