Epson America, Inc. and Epson Electronics America, Inc. Announce Operational Merger

Effective April 1, 2018 Epson Electronics America, Inc. will merge with its sister company, Epson America, Inc. Both companies are currently wholly owned subsidiaries of Seiko Epson Corporation with headquarters in California. This merger positions Epson's micro device business for continued long-term growth by integrating EEA into state-of-the art infrastructure and operational systems that can accommodate our future business expansion plans. After the merger, EEA will cease to exist as a legal entity but its entire business will continue to operate under EAI.

As part of Epson's 2025 Mid Term Business Plan, Seiko Epson Corporation (SEC) is making significant investments to expand its Business-to-Business (B2B) portfolio, including micro devices. As part of this plan, SEC is realigning several organizations, including EEA. These changes will ensure Epson's on-going leadership in the micro device markets that we serve.
