Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Terex Corporation completed its previously announced acquisition of REV Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries on February 2, 2026. The transaction was structured as a two‑step merger, leaving REV as a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Terex through Tag Merger Sub 2 LLC.

At the effective time of the merger, Terex expanded its board of directors to twelve members. Two directors, Paula H. J. Cholmondeley and Christopher Rossi, resigned without any disagreement on company matters, and Cholmondeley was named director emeritus in a non‑voting, advisory role. Five former REV directors—Jean Marie (John) Canan, David Dauch, Charles Dutil, Kathleen Steele and Maureen O’Connell—joined the Terex board and its key committees as independent directors. Terex also issued a press release announcing the closing, and noted that REV’s historical financial statements and related pro forma information are available in its previously filed registration statement.

Insights

Terex closes the REV acquisition and significantly reshapes its board.

Terex has finalized the acquisition of REV Group, Inc. via a two‑step merger, making REV a wholly owned subsidiary. This confirms that required closing conditions were met and transitions the relationship from announced deal to completed combination, which is typically a key milestone for integration.

The board was enlarged to twelve members, with two Terex directors resigning and five former REV directors appointed as independent directors across the Audit, Compensation and Governance committees. One departing director was named director emeritus, allowing advisory participation without voting power or quorum impact.

The shift brings REV’s governance perspectives directly into Terex’s boardroom, including a new chair of the Audit Committee. Historical financial statements and pro forma financials for the combined business remain available through the previously declared‑effective registration statement on Form S‑4 dated December 23, 2025.

Introductory Note
 
On October 29, 2025, Terex Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Terex” or the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with REV Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“REV”), Tag Merger Sub 1 Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Terex (“Merger Sub 1”), and Tag Merger Sub 2 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Terex (“Merger Sub 2”), pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, (1) Merger Sub 1 merged with and into REV (the “First Merger”), with REV continuing as the surviving corporation in the First Merger (the time the First Merger became effective, the “Effective Time”), and (2) immediately following the First Merger, REV merged with and into Merger Sub 2 (the “Second Merger” and, together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with Merger Sub 2 continuing as the surviving company in the Second Merger as a wholly owned, direct subsidiary of Terex.
 
The Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby were previously described in the Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-292000) originally filed by Terex with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 8, 2025 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”), which such Registration Statement was declared effective by the Commission on December 23, 2025, and the definitive proxy statement/prospectus of Terex, dated December 23, 2025 (as supplemented).
 
The events described in this Current Report on Form 8-K took place in connection with the completion of the Mergers, which took place on February 2, 2026 (the “Closing Date”).

Item 2.01
Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
 
As discussed in the Introductory Note, on the Closing Date, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of REV and its subsidiaries. At the Effective Time, subject to certain exceptions:
 

Each issued and outstanding share of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of REV (“REV Common Stock”) (other than certain excluded shares) was converted into the right to receive (i) 0.9809 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Terex (“Terex Common Stock”), and (ii) $8.71 in cash (without interest) (clauses (i) and (ii) together, the “Merger Consideration”), with cash paid in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares of Terex Common Stock, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement.


Each award of restricted shares of REV common stock granted under the Amended and Restated REV Group, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (as amended, the “REV Stock Plan”) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “REV Restricted Share Award”) was converted into (i) a Terex restricted share award (a “Terex Restricted Share Award”), relating to a number of whole shares of Terex Common Stock equal to the product of (a) the number of shares of REV Common Stock subject to the REV Restricted Share Award, multiplied by (b) 0.9809, and (ii) an amount in restricted cash equal to the product of (a) the number of shares of REV Common Stock subject to the REV Restricted Share Award, multiplied by (b) $8.71, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement.


Each award of REV restricted stock units granted under the REV Stock Plan outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “REV RSU Award”) was converted into (i) a Terex restricted stock unit award (a “Terex RSU Award”), relating to a number of shares of Terex Common Stock equal to the product of (a) the number of shares of REV Common Stock (which assumed forecasted level of performance was achieved for any REV RSU Award subject to performance vesting conditions), multiplied by (b) the award exchange ratio under the Merger Agreement of 1.1309, and (ii) an amount in restricted cash equal the amount of any dividend equivalents that were accrued, but unpaid, with respect to the REV RSU Award, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement.
 
The foregoing description of the Mergers and the Merger Agreement, and the transactions contemplated thereby, is a summary only, does not purport to be complete, and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Terex with the Commission on October 30, 2025, and is incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 2.1.
 
Item 5.02.
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
 
In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, the size of the board of directors of Terex (the “Board”) as of the Effective Time was increased to consist of a total of twelve (12) members. Paula H. J. Cholmondeley and Christopher Rossi resigned from their respective positions as directors of Terex and from all committees of the Board on which they served, in each case effective as of the Effective Time.   The resignation of each of Ms. Cholmondeley and Mr. Rossi did not involve any disagreement with Terex on any matter relating to Terex’s operations, policies or practices. In connection with Ms. Cholmondeley’s resignation as a member of the Board, the Board designated Ms. Cholmondeley as director emeritus.  In this capacity as director emeritus, Ms. Cholmondeley will be entitled to attend Board meetings in an advisory capacity but will not vote on Board matters nor will Ms. Cholmondeley’s presence at Board meetings count towards the determination of a whether there is a quorum of the Board at any meeting.

Additionally, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the following five individuals who served as directors of REV prior to the Closing (each, a “New Director”) were appointed to the Board: (i) Jean Marie (John) Canan was appointed to the Board and as a member of the Audit Committee of the Board and the Compensation and Human Capital Committee of the Board, (ii) David Dauch was appointed to the Board and as a member of the Compensation and Human Capital Committee of the Board, (iii) Charles Dutil was appointed to the Board and as a member of the Governance, Nominating and Corporate Responsibility Committee of the Board, (iv) Kathleen Steele was appointed to the Board and as a member of the Audit Committee of the Board and the Compensation and Human Capital Committee of the Board, and (v) Maureen O’Connell was appointed to the Board and as a member, and chair of, of the Audit Committee of the Board, in each case, effective upon the Effective Time.
 

There are no relationships or related transactions between any New Director and Terex that would be required to be reported under Section 404(a) of Regulation S-K.  Each of the New Directors will be an independent director under the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange and Terex’s Corporate Governance Guidelines. Each New Director will receive the standard compensation provided to all Terex non-employee directors as described under the heading “Director Compensation” in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 1, 2025.

FAQ

What transaction did Terex (TEX) complete with REV Group?

How was the Terex and REV Group merger structured?

The deal used two mergers. First, Tag Merger Sub 1 Inc. merged into REV, with REV surviving. Immediately after, REV merged into Tag Merger Sub 2 LLC, which remains as the surviving company and a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Terex Corporation.

What changes occurred to the Terex (TEX) board after the REV merger?

At the effective time, Terex increased its board size to twelve directors. Two existing directors resigned, and five former REV directors were appointed to the board, all classified as independent and assigned to key committees such as Audit, Compensation, and Governance.

Who are the new Terex independent directors from REV Group?

Five former REV directors joined Terex’s board: Jean Marie (John) Canan, David Dauch, Charles Dutil, Kathleen Steele, and Maureen O’Connell. They were appointed to the Audit, Compensation and Human Capital, and Governance, Nominating and Corporate Responsibility committees, with O’Connell chairing the Audit Committee.

What is Paula Cholmondeley’s new role at Terex after her resignation?

Upon resigning as a Terex director, Paula H. J. Cholmondeley was designated director emeritus. She may attend board meetings in an advisory capacity but does not vote, and her attendance does not count toward determining whether a quorum of the board is present.

Where can investors find financial statements related to the REV acquisition by Terex?

Terex states that REV’s financial statements and pro forma financial information for the acquisition are not repeated here because they are already included in, or incorporated by reference into, the company’s registration statement on Form S-4 that was declared effective on December 23, 2025.
