CAMERAS
PRESS RELEASE
MÉRIGNAC – PALAISEAU, FRANCE – NOVEMBER, 18th 2024



• Exosens announces it has entered into exclusive negotiations to acquire Noxant, a specialist
in high-performance cooled infrared cameras.
• This acquisition would enhance Exosens' technology platform by adding advanced cooled
infrared camera cores for OEM partners, particularly in the Midwave Infrared (MWIR) range.
• This new acquisition would mark another milestone in Exosens' growth strategy, with
significant synergies anticipated between Noxant and its imaging business, including Telops
(acquired in 2023).


Exosens (Euronext FR001400Q9V2 – EXENS), a high-tech company dedicated to mission-critical
amplification, detection, and imaging technology, has entered into exclusive negotiations with
French-based Noxant, specialized in the development of high-performance cooled infrared
cameras. This acquisition would enable Exosens to expand its product offerings and to reinforce its
position as a leading provider of advanced imaging solutions for integrators. Noxant serves
applications in surveillance, scientific research and industrial testing, as well as in gas detection, which
would make it a strong synergistic addition to Exosens’ infrared offering.

Expanding Infrared Capabilities with Strategic Complementarity

“Through this acquisition, we would broaden Exosens' technological spectrum by offering cutting-
edge cooled infrared solutions to meet the growing demands of our OEM customers. Noxant's
expertise in cooled infrared technology aligns perfectly with our mission to deliver high-
performance, reliable imaging solutions for critical applications. Furthermore, the synergies between
Noxant and Telops would strengthen our R&D capabilities and accelerate our innovation in infrared
technologies.” stated Jérôme Cerisier, CEO of Exosens.

Noxant’s range of high-performance MWIR cooled camera cores provides complementary
capabilities that meet the increasing demand for advanced infrared solutions in drone-based,
industrial control and other applications where camera integration is required. Primarily serving
OEMs, Noxant brings commercial complementarity with Telops, targeting more end users. This
difference would create opportunities for sales synergies through cross-selling of Exosens' expanded
customer base.

Commitment to High-Performance Imaging

“Joining forces with Exosens, a company that shares our commitment to excellence in high-

infrared technology to our customers while benefiting from Exosens' vast resources and expertise
and a larger GoToMarket.” commented Laurent Dague, Chairman of Noxant.

Noxant has generated revenue of approximately EUR 12 million for the financial year ended 30 June
2024 and has 22 employees1. The transaction is expected to be finalized in the coming months,
subject to completion of the consultation of the employees’ representative body of Noxant and
customary clearances and approvals.

This acquisition pursues Exosens' growth strategy, and would come in addition to the three
transactions announced since its IPO last June, namely Centronic (United Kingdom), LR Tech
(Canada) and NVLS (Spain). The four companies generated a combined total revenue of €38 million
in their last reported fiscal year (in local GAAP accounting standards).
