"We are very pleased to close this transaction," said Steve Macadam, president and chief executive officer of EnPro. "The proceeds will enable us to continue our pursuit of acquisitions and internal initiatives for growth in areas where we have better market positions and more attractive prospects. At the same time, we are confident that Atlas Copco's strong focus on the compressor industry will bring greater long-term opportunities to Quincy."
EnPro expects to receive total proceeds of $190 million in cash for the sale, $184 million of which was received today. An additional $6 million will be due at the closing of the sale of Kunshan Q-Tech Air Systems Technologies, Quincy's China operations, which is expected later this year.
