EnPro Industries Announces Successful Completion of Fairbanks Morse Sale
for $450 Million in Cash
CHARLOTTE, N.C., January 21, 2020 -- EnPro Industries, Inc. (NYSE: NPO) today announced that it has closed the previously announced sale of Fairbanks Morse to an affiliate of funds managed by private equity firm Arcline Investment Management (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, "Arcline") for a purchase price of $450 million, subject to closing date purchase price adjustments. EnPro announced the agreement to sell Fairbanks Morse on December 12, 2019.
EnPro expects to use net proceeds from the transaction to pay down a portion of its outstanding debt, while maintaining a disciplined approach to deploying capital for increased shareholder value, which could include future acquisitions and share repurchases.
DC Advisory served as exclusive financial advisor to EnPro, and Robinson Bradshaw served as legal counsel.
