Tredegar Corporation (NYSE:TG) (“Tredegar”) announced today that it has completed the previously announced sale of Terphane, its flexible packaging films business headquartered in Brazil, to Oben Group (“Oben”).

Commenting on the sale, John Steitz, Tredegar’s president and chief executive officer said, “The sale of Terphane completes a strategic goal that we’ve been working on for well over a year. We believe that Terphane will have greater scale and growth opportunities with Oben, a global player in the highly competitive flexible films industry. We wish the best for the employees and stakeholders of Terphane and Oben.”

Gonzalo Belaunde, Oben’s chief executive officer, said, “We are pleased to complete the acquisition of Terphane. We believe that combining our capabilities will improve the service and quality provided to our customers and markets. We welcome Terphane to the Oben team.”

On September 1, 2023, Tredegar entered into an agreement to sell Terphane to Oben for net cash-free and debt-free base consideration of $116 million. Tredegar expects to realize after-tax net cash-free and debt-free cash proceeds of $85 million (after deducting projected Brazil withholding taxes, net working capital adjustments, escrow funds, US capital gains taxes and transaction expenses), including $78 million at closing and $7 million from the release of certain escrow funds within 120 days of closing (the “Post-Closing Review Period”). Expected amounts are based on Terphane’s estimated balance sheet on the closing date, which may change during the Post-Closing Review Period as accounts for the applicable period are finalized.

Tredegar is an industrial manufacturer with two primary businesses: custom aluminum extrusions for the North American building & construction, automotive and specialty end-use markets and surface protection films for high technology applications in the global electronics industry. With approximately 1,500 employees, Tredegar operates manufacturing facilities in North America and Asia.
