CCS reviews Analogic-Leidos merger over airport security market overlap

The merger overlaps in the supply of checked and cabin baggage explosives detection systems

The Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCS) is inviting public feedback on the proposed merger of the Analogic Corporation and Leidos Inc’s security enterprise solution as well as industrial and general automation businesses.

The proposed merger will overlap in the global supply of checked baggage explosives detection systems (EDS), and cabin baggage EDS, including after-market services, to Singapore.

Analogic produces imaging and detection solutions in the healthcare, industrial, and aviation security sectors globally and in Singapore. In the aviation security sector, Analogic is active in cabin baggage EDS and checked baggage EDS.

Analogic is controlled by affiliates of Altaris, LLC, a New York-based investment firm, the CCS said.

Leidos is a science and technology solutions company headquartered in Virginia, United States. Leidos provides scientific engineering, systems integration and technical services, with a primary focus on the national security, defence and health sectors, the CCS said.

CCS will accept public feedback on the proposed merger until 5 August 2026. Public feedback can be shared through the online form or an email at [email protected], the commission said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
