Avnet completed its acquisition of Sunrise Technology Ltd. on May 10, 2001; it is a historical deal, not a pending transaction. Sunrise was a privately held Chinese electronic-components distributor, and Avnet said the purchase strengthened its presence in China and the wider Asian market.
When did Avnet acquire Sunrise Technology?
Avnet’s 2001 annual report records the completion date as May 10, 2001, describing Sunrise as a privately held distributor serving Chinese and multinational original-equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and contract manufacturers. Avnet’s 2001 annual report makes clear why “nears acquisition” is no longer accurate wording.
What did Sunrise Technology do?
Sunrise distributed electronic components in China rather than manufacturing them. Its product range included semiconductors, interconnect, passive and electromechanical components, according to EE Times’ contemporaneous report. Avnet’s filings describe the business as operating in the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and Hong Kong, serving both local and multinational customers. Avnet’s SEC filing says the transaction substantially strengthened its operations in those markets.
How large was Sunrise?
Avnet reported Sunrise sales of approximately $230 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001. The figure appears in Avnet’s 2001 annual report and its later acquisition summary. 2001 annual report; 2002 annual report.

What were the terms of the acquisition?
The purchase price was not disclosed. EE Times reported that Avnet paid cash for Sunrise’s assets from owner and chairman C.T. Wong and acquired shares in two related businesses, Shanghai Logistic and Chinatronic Technology Ltd. The report also said Sunrise’s management, including Wong and CEO Raymond Tsang, would remain and take on expanded responsibility for Avnet Electronics Marketing’s Hong Kong and China operations. EE Times, May 2001.
Why did Avnet want Sunrise?
The deal gave Avnet local customer relationships and broader sales and technical coverage in China, alongside Sunrise’s existing distribution business. Avnet described the acquisition as a strategic foothold for continued growth in the region. In contemporaneous coverage, Avnet CEO Roy Vallee said the acquisition would expand sales and technical coverage in what he called the strategically critical China market.
