DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Trinity Industries, Inc. (NYSE: TRN) (“Trinity”) and Arcosa, Inc.
(“Arcosa”) today announced that they will host separate Investor Day
meetings in New York City on Thursday, October 4, 2018 in anticipation
of the expected tax-free distribution of Arcosa to Trinity stockholders
on November 1, 2018.
During the first half of the Investor Day, members of Trinity management
will discuss the rationale for the spin-off, highlight Trinity’s
businesses and integrated rail platform, and review the company's
go-forward strategy for future investment in the business and resulting
capital structure to support growth.
In the afternoon, members of Arcosa management will host a separate
session and will provide an overview of Arcosa and its operating
structure, additional insights on each business segment, and Arcosa's
strategic roadmap and capital allocation strategy.
Both sessions will incorporate question and answer opportunities for
attendees.
The events will be separately webcast and participants can register at www.trin.net/events-and-presentations.
A replay of the webcasts will also be made available on Trinity's
website through the date of the spin.
The completion of the spin-off transaction is subject to the
satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions described in the
Information Statement and in the form of Separation and Distribution
Agreement, both of which are filed as exhibits to Arcosa’s Form 10 filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Trinity and Arcosa expect
all conditions to the Arcosa distribution to be satisfied on or before
the distribution date, November 1, 2018 at 12:01 a.m. ET.
A “when-issued” public trading market for Arcosa’s common stock is
expected to begin on or about October 16, 2018 on the NYSE and continue
through the close of trading on the day prior to the distribution date.
Beginning on November 1, 2018, “when-issued” trading will end and Arcosa
will begin “regular-way” trading on the NYSE under the symbol “ACA.”
