舒爾曼最近宣布已經(jīng)收購了Perrite集團，收購價約5200萬美元。Perrite主營熱塑性塑料的制造業(yè)務(wù)，與馬來西亞、英國和法國的運營商都有合作。
此次收購預(yù)計將增加舒爾曼亞太地區(qū)收入的35%，并且其工程塑料業(yè)務(wù)將會擴大一倍。它預(yù)計業(yè)務(wù)所產(chǎn)生的協(xié)同效應(yīng)將在200萬-300萬美元/年之間，同時采購成本以及運行成本都會有所降低。
舒爾曼董事長、總裁兼首席執(zhí)行官Joseph M. Gingo稱：“ APAC工程塑料業(yè)務(wù)的擴張是我們增長戰(zhàn)略的一個關(guān)鍵組成部分，Perrite位于馬來西亞的生產(chǎn)設(shè)施也會提高我們的服務(wù)客戶區(qū)域以及全球擴張的能力，并且它還提供一個有吸引力的機會，讓我們通過歐洲和美洲的業(yè)務(wù)將產(chǎn)品更好的組合?！?br /> 他還表示：“Perrite為我們帶來的不僅僅是業(yè)務(wù)上的擴張，它在其他方面也體現(xiàn)了重要作用，比如在某些重要的市場中也占有領(lǐng)先地位，如電子、電器和利基汽車；擁有已成功建立并且很有信譽的品牌；帶來了具有豐富經(jīng)驗的技術(shù)隊伍；曾具有強勁增長的盈利能力。此次收購將使我們的歐洲利基工程塑料業(yè)務(wù)迎來新的客戶，并且也讓我們進軍到了一個相鄰的市場，即為英國制造的海底輸油管道提供絕緣材料。”
Perrite已擁有為電力、汽車和工業(yè)市場生產(chǎn)和銷售熱塑性化合物35年以上的經(jīng)驗，為客戶提供多種材質(zhì)標準和定制復(fù)合聚合物產(chǎn)品。Perrite的產(chǎn)品線包括高性能的Ronfalin ABS的品牌和一流的聚酰胺Vitamide。其他主要品牌包括Perlex PerCom聚丙烯、Perlex聚碳酸酯、Styralin聚苯乙烯和Pertal聚甲醛。Perrite擁有員工約220人，在2012財政年度收入1.4億美元。
Gingo 還稱：“舒爾曼的強大的資產(chǎn)負債表和堅實的現(xiàn)金流成為此次收購堅強的后盾。我們的目標是進一步加強我們公司在核心市場的領(lǐng)先地位，讓公司繼續(xù)保持可持續(xù)增長。”

A. Schulman, Inc. recently announced that it has purchased the Perrite Group, a thermoplastics manufacturing business with operations in Malaysia, the United Kingdom and France, for approximately $52 million. Perrite was part of the Vita Group portfolio of companies.
The acquisition is expected to increase revenues in A. Schulman's Asia Pacific (APAC) segment by 35% and will double the size of the Company's existing Engineered Plastics business in the region. It is expected to deliver approximately $2 million to $3 million in annual synergies, including initial savings in procurement followed by more significant savings in the area of operational efficiencies.
"Expansion of our Custom Performance Colors and Engineered Plastics businesses in APAC is a key component of our growth strategy, and the addition of Perrite's manufacturing facility in Malaysia will enhance our ability to serve key customers in the region as well as globally," said Joseph M. Gingo, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, A. Schulman. "It also provides an attractive opportunity to leverage our broader portfolio of products through our successful color and niche engineered plastics businesses in EMEA and the Americas."
Gingo continued, "Perrite holds leading positions in attractive target markets such as electronics, appliance and niche automotive; offers well-established and respected brands; brings a highly experienced technical team; and has a strong track record of profitable growth. The acquisition will allow us to strengthen our European niche Engineered Plastics business with the addition of new customers, as well as move into adjacent markets with Perrite's highly profitable insulation materials for the sub-sea flexible oil pipe market, which are manufactured in the United Kingdom."
Perrite has manufactured and distributed thermoplastic compounds for the electrical, automotive and industrial markets for more than 35 years, offering a broad portfolio of standard and custom compounded polymer products. Perrite's product lines include the high-performance Ronfalin ABS brand and prime-quality polyamide Vitamide range. Other key brands include Percom polypropylene, Perlex polycarbonate, Styralin polystyrene and Pertal POM. Perrite employs approximately 220 people and recorded revenues of $140 million in fiscal 2012.
Gingo added, "A. Schulman's strong balance sheet and solid cash flow generation continue to position the Company well to pursue its acquisition strategy. Our goal is to further strengthen our Company's leading position in our core markets and position the Company for sustainable growth. We will remain aggressive in pursuing this strategy and are encouraged by the opportunities in the global acquisition pipeline."
