ATCO Structures Completes Acquisition of NRB Modular Solutions

ATCO Structures & Logistics Ltd. (ATCO Structures) has successfully closed the previously announced acquisition of NRB Limited (NRB), a leading Canadian manufacturer of modular industrial, educational and residential buildings, from Dexterra Group Inc. The purchase, completed for $40 million in cash, was subject to normal closing adjustments and conditions, including final authorization of the Canadian Competition Bureau.

ATCO Structures continues to expand its global presence by introducing new forms of modular construction and expanding our offering of modular products, with significant recent expansion in residential product lines.

"The NRB acquisition, along with our recent purchase of Triple M Housing, the Canadian leader in single family modular housing, has led to the dramatic growth and diversification of ATCO Structures and now positions our future operations to provide a full suite of commercial, industrial, education and all forms of residential modular products across Canada and competitively into the United States," said Adam Beattie, President, ATCO Structures.

"The addition of highly skilled personnel and strategically located manufacturing operations enhances ATCO Structures' capability to provide the highest quality and highly competitive modular solutions to a market that is calling for fast, high-quality alternatives to traditional construction," added Mr. Beattie. "Importantly, this strategy aligns with increasing our growth potential, positioning us to improve our value creation and increase shareholder returns while providing an obvious solution to our country's housing crisis with affordable and readily available housing."

In business for over 40 years, NRB is one of Canada's largest and longest operating modular building providers and has been an industry innovator in multi-family residential modular products. NRB operates four specialized modular manufacturing locations in British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario.

Over the coming months, ATCO Structures looks forward to transforming NRB as it exists today to unlock and identify its growth potential. "In doing so, we'll move from competitors to colleagues, combining industry innovators and leaders as we move to quickly integrate operations under a singular purpose for the future of ATCO Structures," said Mr. Beattie.

With manufacturing facilities in Canada, the United States, Mexico, Chile and Australia, ATCO Structures provides global turnkey permanent and temporary modular solutions for mobile offices, workforce housing, hotels, medical facilities, schools, multi and single-family housing and more.
