VSE Corp's shares rose by 5.50% as it crossed above the 5-day SMA amid a challenging market environment.
The company announced its acquisition of Precision Aviation Group for approximately $2.025 billion, consisting of $1.75 billion in cash and $275 million in equity. This acquisition is expected to significantly enhance VSE's market scale and competitiveness, with additional earnout considerations based on PAG's future performance.
