Dometic divests seating and chassis component business


Dometic Group (“Dometic”), the global market leader in solutions for mobile
living, has entered an agreement to sell the seating and chassis component
business of its subsidiary Atwood Mobile Products (“Atwood”) to Lippert
Components, Inc. (“LCI”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Drew Industries
Incorporated. The divestment includes a production site in Elkhart, Indiana.
Sales of the divested business for 2015 were approximately USD 30 million.
“The sale of the seating and chassis components business is another result of
our active portfolio management, with the aim to create a more focused and
competitive Dometic. We have a suitable buyer in LCI, as this business fits with
their current offering. For Dometic, this means that we will be able to further
increase our focus and develop our world-leading position in the core areas
Climate, Hygiene & Sanitation and Food & Beverage”, said Roger Johansson,
President and CEO of Dometic.

The selling price is USD 12.5 million, which will be paid in cash. This
transaction will trigger a write-down mainly relating to intangible assets of
USD 3.0-3.5 million, which will be recorded in the fourth quarter results. The
transaction is expected to be completed in November 2016.
