- Sale for price of €2.025 billion
- Another step in executing Vision
2020+ strategy for becoming a focused technology company
- New ownership structure offers Flender
optimal growth and development opportunities
- Long-term and reliable commitments agreed
upon for Flender’s employees and German locations
The Managing
Board and Supervisory Board of Siemens AG have approved the sale of Flender GmbH
– a world-leading supplier of mechanical and electrical drive systems – to Carlyle.
The contracting parties signed a corresponding agreement today. The price is €2.025 billion (enterprise value). Siemens
recently gave its energy business independence through a public listing. By
selling Flender, the company is now promptly taking another important step in
the rigorous execution of its Vision 2020+ strategy for enabling Siemens
to become a focused technology company. Carlyle’s plans – following Flender’s successful
reorientation – are to further accelerate its growth and fully develop its
strengths through more independence and greater leeway for decisions. The sale also
makes it possible to forgo the originally planned spin-off and public listing
and thus offers a faster track to clarity for a successful future of Flender. The
transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2021 and is subject to
foreign-investment and antitrust approvals.
