Cargotec plans to split Kalmar and Hiab into standalone companies

Cargotec is assessing a separation of its core businesses Kalmar and Hiab into two standalone companies, in an effort to pursue sustainable profitable growth opportunities independently.

The intention would be to separate Kalmar as a new listed company by means of a partial demerger from Cargotec.

Kalmar-related assets and liabilities would be carved out from the current listed Cargotec, while current Cargotec shareholders would own with the same proportion of the newly established Kalmar listed company.
