HOUSTON, April 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Quanex Building Products Corporation (NYSE:NX) ("Quanex" or the "Company") today announced it has reached agreement with Tyman plc (LSE:TYMN) ("Tyman") on the terms of a recommended cash and share offer ("the Acquisition"), under which Quanex will acquire the entire issued and to be issued share capital of Tyman for approximately $1.1 billion¹ in enterprise value.

Quanex's Acquisition of Tyman creates a comprehensive solutions provider in the building products industry, which on a pro forma basis generated approximately $2 billion of revenue in the fiscal year ended October 31, 2023². Tyman's family of brands includes highly regarded names that boast wide customer bases and offer product solutions in the window and door hardware, commercial access solutions, and seals and extrusions vertical segments for residential and commercial users across its North America, UK and Ireland, and International divisions. Together, the combined company will have global scale and leading positions across an enhanced offering of differentiated engineered components.

"This transformative acquisition accelerates our journey to becoming ‘BIGGER', creating a leading supplier of building products with a more diverse geographic footprint, product offering and customer base," said George Wilson, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Quanex. "With significantly enhanced scale, we are looking forward to fully optimizing our portfolio of products and assets to position Quanex as a comprehensive solutions provider for our customers. Importantly, we expect employees of both companies to also benefit from increased opportunities as part of a larger organization with expanded engineering, design and manufacturing capabilities."

"As one company, we will have an enhanced financial profile grounded in attractive margins, strong free cash flow and a healthy balance sheet, that will enable us to invest in organic and inorganic growth opportunities to deliver superior returns for investors. The industrial logic and strategic rationale of bringing Quanex and Tyman together are clear and compelling, and we are confident in our ability to drive meaningful value creation for both Quanex and Tyman shareholders and enhanced market offerings for our customer base," Wilson concluded.

Nicky Hartery, Tyman Chairman, stated in the formal 2.7 announcement released this morning, "This transformative and complementary transaction will strengthen the enlarged business for the benefit of all our customers, employees and other stakeholders. In the context of a rapidly evolving North American marketplace, our Board ultimately determined that this transaction is the best path to maximizing value for Tyman Shareholders, who will be able to realize a meaningful portion of their holding in cash at a significant premium to the prevailing share price while also participating in the future upside of the enlarged group³. Today marks the beginning of an exciting next chapter for Tyman and our talented employees, and we look forward to joining with Quanex to deliver future growth and success."

Compelling Industrial Logic and Strategic Rationale for the Acquisition

Aligns with Quanex's "BIGGER" Strategic Roadmap for Growth and Value Creation. This transaction matches Quanex's bold acquisition strategy, and provides exposure to an enhanced product offering and additional markets, moving Quanex closer to its $2 billion revenue target.
Creates a Larger, More Diversified Supplier of Components to OEMs. Quanex and Tyman have complementary product portfolios of trusted brands, routes to market and manufacturing processes, as well as highly complementary customer bases.
Strengthens Brand Leadership. Tyman's family of brands includes highly-regarded names in their respective business segments, which boast wide customer bases. These brands offer product solutions in the window and door hardware, commercial access solutions and seals and extrusions verticals.
Enhances Financial Profile by Accelerating Growth and Increasing Profitability. The combined company will benefit from larger scale, higher profitability and stronger cash flow, positioning it well to pursue organic and inorganic growth opportunities.
- Enhanced Scale and Attractive Margins. The combined company achieves greater scale and reach with combined fiscal year 2023 revenues of approximately $2 billion and higher EBITDA margin pro forma for full cost synergies⁴.
- Earnings Accretive. The Acquisition is expected to be meaningfully accretive to earnings in the first full fiscal year following the completion of the Acquisition, taking into account cost synergies.
- Strong Cash Flows and Opportunity to Invest in Growth. The increased scale is expected to result in a healthy balance sheet, strong liquidity and an improved cash flow profile.
- Prudent Financing Structure. The combined company is expected to maintain modest net leverage upon completion of the Acquisition, and expects to achieve net leverage of approximately 1.5x in the medium-term following completion of the Acquisition.
Substantial Value Creation Unlocked for both Tyman and Quanex Shareholders Through Material Synergy Opportunity. The Acquisition will result in significant recurring pre-tax cost synergies of approximately $30 million on an annual run-rate basis which are expected to be achieved within two years after transaction close.
- Additional Revenue Synergy Potential. There are several potential revenue opportunities expected for the combined company, including additional revenue growth through capitalizing on the cross-selling opportunities that will arise from Quanex's and Tyman's complementary customer base and the optimization of Tyman's customer mix.⁵

_{⁵ Although the Quanex Directors are confident of realizing value via the delivery of revenue synergies, these have not been quantified for public reporting under the Takeover Code at this stage.}

Transaction Details

Under the terms of the Acquisition, Tyman shareholders will be entitled to receive an implied value of 400.0 pence for each Tyman share (the "Consideration"), based on Quanex's last closing share price of $34.64 on April 19, 2024. Tyman shareholders will have the option to elect to receive the Consideration as either a mix of 240.0 pence in cash and 0.05715 shares of Quanex common stock for each Tyman share, or as a Capped All-Share alternative of 0.14288 shares of Quanex common stock per Tyman share. The Capped All-Share alternative will be subject to proration if more than 25% of the outstanding Tyman shares elect to receive this alternative. Upon close of the Acquisition, Tyman shareholders will own between approximately 30% and 32% of Quanex, depending on shareholder elections, on a fully diluted basis.

Based on Quanex's last closing share price of $34.64 on April 19, 2024, the Consideration represents:

A premium of approximately 35.1% to the closing price of the Tyman shares of 296.0 pence on the London Stock Exchange on April 19, 2024;
A premium of approximately 36.0% to the one-month volume weighted average price of 294.2 pence per Tyman Share; and
A premium of approximately 40.5% to the six-month volume weighted average price of 284.8 pence per Tyman Share.

Tyman shareholders will also be entitled to receive the final dividend of 9.5 pence per Tyman share, as declared by Tyman on March 7, 2024.

The Acquisition is not subject to any financing contingency, with Quanex having attained fully committed financing from Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., Bank of America Securities and TD Bank.

The full terms and conditions of the Acquisition are set out in a joint announcement released by Quanex and Tyman in the UK today under Rule 2.7 of the Takeover Code. A copy of such announcement will be available on the Quanex website at https://www.roadto2b.com, subject to certain access restrictions.

Timing and Approvals

The Acquisition has been unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of both Quanex and Tyman and is currently expected to close in the second half of calendar year 2024, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including shareholder approval from both Tyman and Quanex shareholders and regulatory approvals.

Irrevocable undertaking from Teleios

Teleios, which owns approximately 16.4% of the outstanding shares of Tyman, has entered into an irrevocable undertaking to vote in favor of the Acquisition at the Tyman shareholder meetings and to elect for the Capped All-Share Alternative.

Headquarters and Leadership

Following closing of the Acquisition, the combined company's headquarters will be located at Quanex's current head office in Houston, Texas. Quanex currently does not intend to close any of Tyman's manufacturing facilities as a result of the Acquisition.

The combined company will be led by Mr. Wilson and the Quanex executive team.

Forward Looking Statements

This document contains "forward-looking statements". These statements are based on the current expectations of the management of Quanex and/or Tyman and are naturally subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. The forward-looking statements contained in this document include statements relating to the expected effects of the Acquisition on Tyman and/or Quanex, the expected timing and scope of the Acquisition, and other statements other than historical facts. Forward-looking statements include statements typically containing words such as "will", "may", "should", "believe", "intends", "expects", "anticipates", "targets", "estimates" and words of similar import and including statements relating to future capital expenditures, expenses, revenues, economic performance, financial conditions, dividend policy, losses and future prospects and business and management strategies and the expansion and growth of the operations of Quanex or Tyman. Although Tyman and/or Quanex believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, Tyman and/or Quanex can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will occur in the future. There are a number of factors that could cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward looking statements. These factors include: the possibility that the Acquisition will not be completed on a timely basis or at all, whether due to the failure to satisfy the conditions of the Acquisition (including approvals or clearances from regulatory and other agencies and bodies) or otherwise, general business and economic conditions globally, industry trends, competition, changes in government and other regulation, changes in political and economic stability, disruptions in business operations due to reorganization activities, interest rate and currency fluctuations, the inability of the combined company to realize successfully any anticipated synergy benefits when (and if) the Acquisition is implemented, the inability of the combined company to integrate successfully Quanex's and Tyman's operations when (and if) the Acquisition is implemented and the combined company incurring and/or experiencing unanticipated costs and/or delays or difficulties relating to the Acquisition when (and if) it is implemented. Additional information concerning these and other risk factors is contained in the Risk Factors sections of Quanex's most recent reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q, the contents of which are not incorporated by reference into, nor do they form part of, this press release.

These forward-looking statements are based on numerous assumptions regarding the present and future business strategies of such persons and the environment in which each will operate in the future. By their nature, these forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, as well as uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will occur in the future. The factors described in the context of such forward-looking statements in this press release may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of any such person, or industry results and developments, to be materially different from any results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. No assurance can be given that such expectations will prove to have been correct and persons reading this press release are therefore cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which speak only as at the date of this press release. All subsequent oral or written forward-looking statements attributable to Quanex or Tyman or any persons acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statement above. Neither of Quanex or Tyman undertakes any obligation to update publicly or revise forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by applicable law, regulation or stock exchange rules.

No Profit Forecasts or Estimates

No statement in this press release is intended as a profit forecast or estimate for any period and no statement in this press release should be interpreted to mean that earnings or earnings per share for Quanex or Tyman, as appropriate, for the current or future fiscal years would necessarily match or exceed the historical published earnings or earnings per share for Quanex or Tyman, as appropriate.

Disclosure Requirements of the Takeover Code

Under Rule 8.3(a) of the Takeover Code, any person who is interested in 1 per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of an offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror (being any offeror other than an offeror in respect of which it has been announced that its offer is, or is likely to be, solely in cash) must make an Opening Position Disclosure following the commencement of the offer period and, if later, following the press release in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. An Opening Position Disclosure must contain details of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s). An Opening Position Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(a) applies must be made by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the 10^th business day following the commencement of the offer period and, if appropriate, by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the 10^th business day following the press release in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. Relevant persons who deal in the relevant securities of the offeree company or of a securities exchange offeror prior to the deadline for making an Opening Position Disclosure must instead make a Dealing Disclosure.

Under Rule 8.3(b) of the Takeover Code, any person who is, or becomes, interested in 1 per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror must make a Dealing Disclosure if the person deals in any relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror. A Dealing Disclosure must contain details of the dealing concerned and of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange offeror, save to the extent that these details have previously been disclosed under Rule 8. A Dealing Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(b) applies must be made by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the business day following the date of the relevant dealing.

If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire or control an interest in relevant securities of an offeree company or a securities exchange offeror, then they will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.

Opening Position Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company and by any offeror and Dealing Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company, by any offeror and by any persons acting in concert with any of them (see Rules 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4).

Rounding

Certain figures included in this press release have been subjected to rounding adjustments. Accordingly, figures shown for the same category presented in different tables may vary slightly and figures shown as totals in certain tables may not be an arithmetic aggregation of the figures that precede them.

The directors of Quanex accept responsibility for the information contained in this presentation which relates to Quanex. To the best of the knowledge and belief of Quanex's directors (who have taken all reasonable care to ensure that such is the case), the information contained in this presentation is in accordance with the facts and does not omit anything likely to affect the import of such information.

This document contains statements of estimated cost savings and synergies (together, the "Quantified Financial Benefits Statement") arising from the Acquisition.

A copy of the Quantified Financial Benefits Statement is set out below:

The Quanex Directors, having reviewed and analyzed the potential cost synergies of the Transaction, and taking into account the factors they can influence, believe that the Enlarged Group can deliver approximately $30 million of pre-tax recurring cost synergies on an annual run-rate basis, expected to be realized by the end of the second full year following completion of the Transaction.

The quantified cost synergies, which are expected to originate from the cost bases of both Quanex and Tyman, are expected to be realized primarily from:

approximately 30 per cent. in corporate and listing related costs, generated from de-duplication and rationalization of public company costs and of executive leadership;
approximately 30 per cent. in procurement savings from scale economies and consolidation of overlapping spend categories; and
approximately 40 per cent. in savings from consolidation and de-duplication of overlapping administrative and commercial functions and activities.

The Quanex Directors expect approximately 50 per cent. of these cost synergies to be achieved by the end of the first 12-month period following completion of the Transaction and the full run-rate by the second anniversary of completion of the Transaction.

The Quanex Directors estimate that the realization of the identified cost synergies will result in one-off costs to achieve of approximately $35 million in aggregate over the first two years post completion of the Transaction.

Potential areas of dis-synergy expected to arise in connection with the Transaction have been considered and were determined by the Quanex Directors to be immaterial for the analysis.

The identified cost synergies will occur as a direct result of the success of the Transaction and would not be achieved on a standalone basis. The identified cost synergies reflect both the beneficial elements and relevant costs.

Bases of Belief and Principal Assumptions for the Quantified Financial Benefits Statement

In preparing the Quantified Financial Benefits Statement, Tyman has provided Quanex with certain operating and financial information to facilitate a detailed analysis in support of evaluating the potential synergies available from the Transaction. Where possible, estimated benefits and costs have been calculated on a bottom-up basis. In circumstances where data has been limited for commercial, regulatory, or other reasons, Quanex management has made estimates and assumptions to aid its development of individual synergy initiatives. The assessment and quantification of the potential synergies have, in turn, been informed by the Quanex management's industry experience and knowledge of the existing businesses, together with consultation with Tyman.

The synergy assumptions have been risk-adjusted.

The cost bases used as the basis for the Quantified Financial Benefits Statement are Quanex last twelve months to 31 January 2024 (with adjustments made to reflect non-recurring items) and manpower costs and headcount data as of 25 March 2024, and Tyman audited financial results and headcount data for the year ending 31 December 2023 (with adjustments made to reflect non-recurring items and expected future changes in certain costs).

In arriving at the Quantified Financial Benefits Statement, the Quanex Directors have assumed:

No material change to macroeconomic, political, legal, or regulatory conditions in the markets or regions in which Quanex and Tyman operate;
No material change in accounting standards;
No material change in the underlying operations of either business from the Transaction;
No material impact from divestments from either the Quanex or Tyman existing businesses;
No material change in tax legislation, tax rates, or other legislation in the UK or US that could materially impact the ability to achieve any benefits;
No material change in current foreign exchange rates;
Foreign exchange conversions based on 3 April 2024 spot rates;
The Enlarged Group will be publicly listed in the United States.

In addition, the Quanex Directors have assumed that the cost synergies are substantively within Quanex's control, albeit that certain elements are dependent in part on negotiations with third parties.

Reports

As required by Rule 28.1(a) of the Takeover Code, KPMG, as reporting accountants to Quanex, and UBS AG, London Branch, as financial adviser to Quanex, have provided the reports required under that Rule. Copies of these reports are included in the announcement made by Quanex Building Products Corporation and Tyman plc on or about the date of this document.

Notes

The Quantified Financial Benefits Statement relates to future actions and circumstances which, by their nature, involve risks, uncertainties and contingencies. In addition, due to the scale of the Enlarged Group, there may be additional changes to the Enlarged Group's operations. As a result, the estimated synergies referred to may not be achieved, or may be achieved later or sooner than estimated, or those achieved could be materially different from those estimated.

The Quantified Financial Benefits Statement should not be construed as a profit forecast or interpreted to mean that Quanex's earnings in the first full year following completion of the Acquisition, or in any subsequent period, will necessarily match or be greater than or be less than those of Quanex or Tyman for the relevant preceding financial period or any other period.

For the purposes of Rule 28 of the Takeover Code, the Quantified Financial Benefits Statement is the responsibility of Quanex and the Quanex Directors.
