Siemens, Carlyle near $2.4 billion deal over Flender business: Bloomberg

Siemens and Carlyle are finalizing terms of the deal that could be announced as early as this week, the report said.

Last week Siemens had asked Triton, Carlyle, CVC and Brookfield to submit final offers next week for the business, which has earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization of just above 200 million euros and could be valued at 8-9 times that, according to sources. Brookfield was outbid by Carlyle in the end, the report said, adding that the talks could still be delayed or fall apart.Flender supplies Winergy branded gear boxes and generators for wind turbines, gears and couplings for cranes, ships, oil and gas production, as well as components for the chemicals, pharma, cement and food industries.

Siemens bought Flender, which traces its roots back to a 19th century maker of belt pulleys, from Babcock Borsig in 2005. Flender has, however, not lived up to Siemens’ growth and profitability expectations.Reporting by Aishwarya Nair in Bengaluru; Additional reporting by Alexander Hübner

Hmmm, Siemens giving up a turbine maker? I call shenanigans.

When the rich prosper, everyone else suffers.

Economy is sad.
