Acquisitions of J.A.M. and G.H. Berlin Windward provide significant competitive advantagesOUTLOOK

Rationale for transactions

  • Both companies hold leading positions in the attractive and highly fragmented lubricant distribution market
  • Above-market growth opportunities for larger distributors
  • US Lubricant supplier market is dominated by larger multi-national O&G companies preferring to work with larger distributors driving further consolidation
  • Targets are an ideal platform for further consolidation of the market
  • Geographic footprints complementary to Brenntag's existing business
  • Highly experienced management teams
  • Strengthening of existing supplier relationships

Due to the resilient nature of the business these transactions will rebalance portfolio in North America away from the more volatile O&G business
