“We also bought Allied Motion Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:AMOT), which designs, manufactures and sells motion-control products for a wide variety of markets. The company tends to generate slowbut-steady organic growth. Allied Motion complements this organic growth with acquisitions of businesses that typically produce faster growth and higher margins. We believe the combination of organic growth and acquisition-based growth is often a winning formula, and we’re especially optimistic regarding Allied Motion.”
