Corbion and Kingswood Capital Management announce the completion of
the divestiture of the emulsifier business
Corbion, a leading global ingredient solutions provider, and
Kingswood Capital Management, LP (“Kingswood”), a middle-market
private equity firm with significant experience in corporate
carve-outs have completed the earlier announced sale of Corbion's
emulsifiers business.
Based in Los Angeles, Kingswood acquired the emulsifier business
from Corbion for a cash purchase price of $362M, with expected net
cash proceeds of approximately $275M, post tax and transaction
costs. The transaction comprises, amongst other conveying assets,
two US-based manufacturing plants and c.175 employees. Corbion and
Kingswood will work together, with supply and service agreements in
place, to enable a smooth transition and to ensure that customers
continue to experience a high level of service.
"Kingswood is excited to take this world-class Emulsifiers
business forward and build on its tremendous heritage by continuing
to provide exceptional service. We are delighted to partner with
Corbion to create the largest standalone pure-play emulsifiers
business in North America." said Alex Wolf, Managing Partner at
Kingswood.
"We are confident that the emulsifier business will be in good
hands under Kingswood’s stewardship and will receive strong support
from their new owners. I want to thank our colleagues who have
worked hard to develop our emulsifier business for many years, and
we wish them great success in the years ahead,” said Olivier
Rigaud, CEO Corbion.
Lazard is serving as financial advisor and Stinson LLP as legal
counsel to Corbion for this transaction. For Kingswood, Kirkland
& Ellis is serving as legal counsel and Configure Partners as
debt advisor.
