July 24 2015 - 7:00AM
Business Wire
Exterran Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:EXH) announced today that the
previously announced private offering of senior notes by its
subsidiaries has been withdrawn due to adverse market conditions.
Consequently, the planned spin-off of its international services
and global fabrication businesses into a stand-alone, publicly
traded company named Exterran Corporation will be delayed. Exterran
Holdings intends to complete the spin-off when market conditions
allow.
“We remain committed to enhancing shareholder value through the
creation of two separate entities,” said Brad Childers, Exterran
Holdings’ President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our employees
have done a tremendous job preparing for the separation of our
businesses, and, as a result of that work, we are positioned to
begin operating as two separate companies when the spin-off occurs.
Until that time, we will continue to operate as one company,
focused on delivering high-quality products and services to our
customers.”
