The divestiture and strategic relationship positions Infor to combine its EAM technology with Hexagon’s digital reality solutions – including sensor, software and autonomous technologies – to produce a better outcome for customers.

As a result of the transaction, Koch also will have an ownership stake in Hexagon, and Hexagon’s main shareholder, MSAB, has the intention of suggesting Brett Watson, President of Koch Equity Development, to the Hexagon nomination committee for nomination to the Board of Directors as soon as feasible post-closing.Īs the EAM market evolves from traditional asset management to Asset Performance Management (APM), customers require broader solutions to manage the entire lifecycle of their assets – from the design/build phase to the operation phase. In addition, Infor and Koch Equity Development, both subsidiaries of Koch Industries, are building strategic relationships with Hexagon. The businesses will remain separate until the completion of the transaction, subject to regulatory approvals. Infor has announced that it has entered into an agreement to sell its global EAM (Enterprise Asset Management) business to Hexagon AB, a global player in digital reality solutions, for approximately $2.75 billion in a combination of cash and stock.
