Subsequent Events
Acquisition of Blasters
On January 3, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all the assets and operations of Blasters, Inc. and Blasters Technologies, LLC (collectively, “Blasters”) for an initial purchase price of $13.4 million. In addition, there is a contingent earn-out payment of up to $8.0 million. The initial purchase price, which is subject to certain post-closing adjustments, was funded through existing cash and borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility.
Blasters is a leading U.S. manufacturer of truck-mounted waterblasting equipment. The Company expects that the Blasters acquisition will further bolster its position as an industry leading diversified industrial manufacturer of specialized vehicles for maintenance and infrastructure markets with leading brands of premium, value-adding products, and a strong supporting aftermarket platform.
The preliminary purchase price allocation has not been completed at this time due to the proximity of the date of acquisition to the date of issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements. The post-acquisition operating results of Blasters are expected to be included within the Environmental Solutions Group.
Acquisition of Trackless
On February 23, 2023, the Company announced the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire substantially all the assets and operations of Trackless Vehicles Limited and Trackless Vehicles Asset Corp, including the wholly-owned subsidiary Work Equipment Ltd. (collectively, “Trackless”). The transaction includes an initial purchase price of C$54.0 million (approximately $40.0 million), subject to closing adjustments. In addition, there is a contingent earn-out payment of up to C$6.0 million (approximately $4.4 million), based upon the achievement of certain financial targets over a specified performance period.
Trackless is a leading Canadian manufacturer of multi-purpose, off-road municipal tractors and attachments.
The Company currently expects to complete the transaction during the second quarter of 2023, subject to customary closing conditions.
