Any Hour Expands Into New Strategic Markets and Positions Company for Continued Growth

OREM, Utah, Sept. 20, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Any Hour Group ("Any Hour" or "the Company"), a leading provider of home services in the Mountain West region, today announced that it has partnered with four additional leading home services businesses – Grapids Heating & Cooling ("Grapids"), Precision Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electrical ("Precision"), Chandler Air ("Chandler"), and All Hours Air ("All Hours") – to further expand its operations in the Mountain West region and in new markets. Financial terms of the transactions were not disclosed.

Founded in 1961, Any Hour offers homeowners peace of mind through a full suite of high-quality HVAC, plumbing, and electrical services. The Company has achieved a market-leading position through rapid organic growth, and in July 2021 partnered with Knox Lane, a San Francisco-based private equity firm, to accelerate Any Hour's trajectory.

Through the addition of Precision and All Hours, Any Hour has solidified its position as the leading home services provider in the Mountain West region, broadening its footprint into Colorado and Nevada. The addition of Chandler further bolsters Any Hour's strength in Arizona, expanding the Company's presence in the Greater Phoenix Area. Finally, Any Hour's partnership with Grapids marks Any Hour's first expansion into the Midwest. Each business will retain its respective brand, headquarters, and management team, while drawing on Any Hour's extensive capabilities in digital marketing, recruitment, training, and operations.

Wyatt Hepworth, CEO of Any Hour, said, "We are thrilled to add Grapids, Precision, Chandler, and All Hours to the Any Hour Group as we continue to execute on our vision of partnering with like-minded, exceptional operators to build a differentiated, strategic platform in residential services. We are excited to be entering several new strategic markets through these partnerships, and to build upon the strong existing footholds they have established."
