NORWALK,
Conn., Oct. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Terex
Corporation (NYSE: TEX) ("Terex" or "Company") today announced
completion of its acquisition of Environmental Solutions Group
("ESG") from Dover Corporation (NYSE: DOV). Terex anticipates that
ESG will drive increased revenue growth, free cash flow, earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA")
margin, and EPS accretion. The transaction is expected to be
double-digit percentage adjusted EPS accretive in 2025, with
meaningful growth thereafter. The all-cash transaction is for
$2.0 billion, or $1.725 billion when adjusted for the present
value of expected tax benefits of approximately $275 million. The
acquisition represents approximately 8.4x 2024E earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) including
expected run-rate synergies. With ESG, Terex will now derive 67% of
its total revenue from North
America, an increase from 61% based on trailing 12 months
results ended Q2 2024.
ESG has demonstrated a track record of consistent, resilient
growth, delivering a 7%+ long-term organic revenue compound annual
growth rate ("CAGR") over the past 10 years. ESG holds the #1
position in North America in
refuse collection vehicles, waste compaction equipment, and
associated parts and digital solutions. ESG's industry-leading
product brands include Heil, Marathon, Curotto-Can, Bayne Thinline,
and Parts Central as well as digital solutions offerings 3rd Eye
and Soft-Pak. ESG's turnkey products and services across equipment,
digital, and aftermarket offerings are complementary to Terex's
businesses, and will allow Terex to expand its customer base,
providing customers with a broader suite of environmental equipment
solutions, and realizing economies of scale.
Simon Meester, Terex President and CEO said: "We're delighted
to welcome ESG into the Terex family of businesses. ESG is a
non-cyclical, financially accretive, market-leading business that
will complement and strengthen Terex's portfolio with synergies in
the fast-growing waste and recycling end market. ESG is led by a
world-class management team and has a strong track record of
operational excellence. We look forward to working with ESG to
drive long-term, sustainable value for all our stakeholders."
Mr. Meester added that Patrick
Carroll, President of Environmental Solutions Group for the
past 14 years, will continue in that role. Mr. Carroll has
extensive experience leading manufacturing businesses including
serving as President of Terex Utilities from 2001 through
2005.
Julie Beck, Terex SVP and CFO
said: "This acquisition significantly strengthens Terex's portfolio
and creates a path for accelerated, sustainable growth. ESG has
demonstrated a sustained track record of resilient, high-single
digit organic growth through the cycle. Its EBITDA margin including
run rate synergies is expected to add 140 basis points of margin
accretion. ESG's efficient operating model with low net working
capital will drive a meaningful improvement in free cash flow
accretion. And finally, Terex expects ~$25 million of identified
synergies to be achieved by the end of 2026.
Mr. Carroll said: "At ESG, our vision has always been to improve
the lives of our team members, our customers, and our communities.
We are looking forward to becoming part of Terex, because we see it
as a great cultural fit with opportunities to expand our positive
impact. We are looking forward to greater scale and access to new
markets."
