ROLLS-ROYCE COMPLETES SALE OF BERGEN ENGINES
Rolls-Royce (LSE:RR., ADR:RYCEY) announces the completion of the
sale of our Bergen Engines business to Langley Holdings plc for an
enterprise value of EUR63m. The completion of the transaction,
which was announced on 3 August 2021, follows the conclusion of
work to separate the business from the Group.
Sale proceeds of EUR91m from the transaction, together with
EUR16m of cash held within Bergen Engines which has been retained
by Rolls-Royce, will be used to help rebuild the Rolls-Royce
balance sheet in support of our medium-term ambition to return to
an investment grade credit profile. In 2020, Bergen Engines
generated revenues of approximately EUR200m with the assets and
liabilities of the business presented as held for sale in the
Rolls-Royce Holdings plc consolidated balance sheet.
