Insights

Terex's strategic divestiture of crane businesses streamlines operations to focus on less cyclical segments with stronger growth potential.

Terex Corporation's decision to sell its Tower and Rough Terrain Cranes businesses to Raimondi Cranes represents a strategic portfolio realignment aimed at reducing cyclical exposure and enhancing focus on core growth segments. The transaction includes manufacturing facilities in Italy and a service operation in North Carolina, but notably excludes the Franna pick and carry cranes business, which will remain with Terex.

This divestiture clearly aligns with Terex's stated strategic objective to reduce business cyclicality - a smart move considering the construction equipment sector's notorious boom-bust cycles. The crane business is particularly vulnerable to construction market fluctuations, making it a logical candidate for divestiture to improve earnings stability.

After this transaction, Terex will concentrate on three business segments with potentially more stable growth trajectories: Materials Processing, Aerials, and the recently acquired Environmental Solutions Group. This demonstrates management's disciplined approach to capital allocation - divesting non-core assets while reinforcing segments where the company has stronger competitive advantages.

For Raimondi, an Italian crane specialist, this acquisition represents significant expansion of their product portfolio and manufacturing footprint. The geographic and product fit makes strategic sense, potentially creating operational synergies while keeping the crane operations under specialized management better positioned to compete in that market niche.

The timing is noteworthy - this transaction follows Terex's October 2024 acquisition of Environmental Solutions Group, indicating an accelerated strategic transformation. This suggests a deliberate portfolio reshaping rather than an opportunistic sale, with management actively rebalancing toward less cyclical business lines with stronger growth characteristics.

NORWALK, Conn., Sept. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Terex Corporation (NYSE: TEX) today announced it has signed a definitive agreement to sell its Terex® Tower and Rough Terrain Cranes businesses to Raimondi Cranes SpA, a global manufacturer of cranes based in Milan, Italy. Included in the transaction are the Terex Tower Cranes facility in Fontanafredda, Italy, Terex Rough Terrain Cranes facility in Crespellano, Italy, and the Terex North America Cranes service and support operation in Wilmington, North Carolina, United States. The sale, subject to government regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions, is expected to close in the second half of 2025.

"We are pleased to enter into this agreement with Raimondi, a manufacturer of cranes that is widely recognized for product innovation and customer service," said Simon Meester, Terex President and Chief Executive Officer. "We believe the Tower and Rough Terrain cranes businesses will benefit by becoming part of an Italian-based, global specialty crane company."

Mr. Meester concluded, "During the transition to Raimondi, our team is committed to servicing and supporting our customers seamlessly. Our cranes team members in Italy have made substantial contributions throughout their years of service to the Company, and we thank them and wish them continued success in the future. Terex is working closely with Raimondi to support the team and manage the change with transparency and respect for everyone involved."

By integrating Terex's Tower and Rough Terrain cranes, we are creating synergies that enhance our ability to deliver a broader range of solutions, paving the way for sustainable, accelerated growth."

For Terex, the divestiture aligns with the Company's strategic focus to reduce cyclicality while accelerating growth and further leveraging synergies across its three business segments: Materials Processing, Aerials, and Environmental Solutions, which includes Environmental Solutions Group, acquired on October 8, 2024. The agreement with Raimondi does not include Franna pick and carry cranes, which Terex will continue to manufacture at its Eagle Farm facility in Brisbane, Australia, and the Terex Hosur facility in India.
