RE:WTF!? Acasta Enters into Definitive Agreement to Sell JemPak
RE:WTF!? Acasta Enters into Definitive Agreement to Sell JemPakJemPak original cost:
The purchase price for JemPak is approximately $135 million, subject to certain price adjustments, and is to be paid in $67.5 million in cash and the remainder in Acasta common shares at $10.00 per share. Affiliates of JemPak's two largest shareholders will acquire JemPak's operating facility in Oakville, Ontario and assume the associated mortgage. The JemPak transaction enterprise value of $127 million is equivalent to 8.0x 2017 estimated EBITDA (excluding synergies), which Acasta management believes reflects a discount to public peer trading multiples.
