Acquisitions
Wesco Integrated Supply (“WIS”) Divestiture
On April 1, 2024, Wesco Distribution, Inc. (“Wesco Distribution”) completed the sale of its WIS business for total consideration of $334.2 million, adjusted from the base purchase price of $350.0 million for estimated net working capital, estimated closing cash, and estimated closing indebtedness. The WIS business, located primarily in the U.S. and Canada, was part of the UBS reportable segment and provided products and services to large industrial and commercial end-users to support their maintenance, repair, and operating spend. During the third quarter, the Company finalized the net working capital, closing cash, and closing indebtedness purchase price adjustments, which resulted in a working capital adjustment of $20.7 million and an increase to the gain from the sale. The Company recognized a gain from the sale of $19.3 million and $122.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, which is recorded as a component of other (income) expense, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Upon closing, Wesco Distribution entered into certain Transition Services Agreements (“TSAs”) under which Wesco Distribution agreed to provide transition services to the purchaser for approximately nine months. Revenues associated with these TSAs are not material.
The sale of the WIS business did not represent a strategic shift that had a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, and therefore does not meet the criteria to be classified as discontinued operations.
