Yokohama confirms 2.1 billion euro Trelleborg Wheel Systems acquisition
Three months after we published the news, The Yokohama Rubber Co., Ltd., has confirmed that it has entered into a share purchase agreement with Swedish-based Trelleborg AB to acquire all outstanding shares of Trelleborg Wheel Systems Holding AB (TWS). According to Yokohama, TWS’s enterprise value is €2,040 million (about ¥265.2 billion).
