Terex Corporation Completes Acquisition of A.S.V., Inc.
Terex Corporation (NYSE: TEX) today announced that it has completed the
acquisition of A.S.V., Inc. (Nasdaq: ASVI) by means of a short form
merger under Minnesota law. ASV is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Terex and part of the Terex Construction segment.
"We are extremely enthusiastic that ASV and
its team members are now part of the Terex Construction family,”
said Robert Isaman, President, Terex Construction. "With
ASV as a proven leader in compact track loader technology combining the
global reach of Terex, we see a real opportunity for expanding ASV
product sales. ASV is an excellent strategic and cultural fit and
provides a great addition to our product offerings as Terex continues to
grow as a global construction equipment manufacturer.”
On February 26, 2008, Terex announced the successful completion of its
tender offer for ASV common stock. In the merger, each outstanding share
of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of ASV not tendered in the
tender offer (other than shares to which the holder has properly
exercised dissenters’ rights) was converted
into the right to receive $18.00 in cash per share, without interest.
