Insights

The sale of Terphane represents a significant strategic transaction for Tredegar, with a $116 million base consideration and expected after-tax proceeds of $85 million. This divestiture streamlines Tredegar's business portfolio, focusing on their aluminum extrusions and surface protection films segments. The immediate cash injection of $78 million at closing, with an additional $7 million expected from escrow, strengthens their balance sheet significantly relative to their $267 million market cap.

The deal's structure, including provisions for working capital adjustments and escrow funds, appears well-designed to protect both parties' interests. For Tredegar shareholders, this transaction provides substantial liquidity while potentially reducing exposure to the highly competitive flexible films market where scale advantages are crucial. The strategic rationale aligns with industry consolidation trends, as smaller players seek to optimize their market positions.

RICHMOND, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Tredegar Corporation (NYSE:TG) (“Tredegar”) announced today that it has completed the previously announced sale of Terphane, its flexible packaging films business headquartered in Brazil, to Oben Group (“Oben”).

Commenting on the sale, John Steitz, Tredegar’s president and chief executive officer said, “The sale of Terphane completes a strategic goal that we’ve been working on for well over a year. We believe that Terphane will have greater scale and growth opportunities with Oben, a global player in the highly competitive flexible films industry. We wish the best for the employees and stakeholders of Terphane and Oben.”

Gonzalo Belaunde, Oben’s chief executive officer, said, “We are pleased to complete the acquisition of Terphane. We believe that combining our capabilities will improve the service and quality provided to our customers and markets. We welcome Terphane to the Oben team.”

On September 1, 2023, Tredegar entered into an agreement to sell Terphane to Oben for net cash-free and debt-free base consideration of $116 million. Tredegar expects to realize after-tax net cash-free and debt-free cash proceeds of $85 million (after deducting projected Brazil withholding taxes, net working capital adjustments, escrow funds, US capital gains taxes and transaction expenses), including $78 million at closing and $7 million from the release of certain escrow funds within 120 days of closing (the “Post-Closing Review Period”). Expected amounts are based on Terphane’s estimated balance sheet on the closing date, which may change during the Post-Closing Review Period as accounts for the applicable period are finalized.

Tredegar is an industrial manufacturer with two primary businesses: custom aluminum extrusions for the North American building & construction, automotive and specialty end-use markets and surface protection films for high technology applications in the global electronics industry. With approximately 1,500 employees, Tredegar operates manufacturing facilities in North America and Asia.
