Winnebago Industries to Acquire Premium RV Manufacturer Newmar NYSE:WGO

Mighty interesting to say the least.
From the link: "Following the close of the transaction, Newmar will operate as a distinct business unit within Winnebago Industries with its headquarters and manufacturing facilities remaining in Nappanee, IN. Matthew Miller will continue to lead the Newmar business post-closing as its President."

Wanna bet? Isn't that what they always say after an acquisition? 🙁

Ed, Interesting indeed.

Chris, not long after privately owned Escape Trailer Industries brought in a Strategic Partner, saying the owner was staying on as production and quality manager, he sold the rest of the company and resigned. Time will tell but I suspect the quality of their product will start declining.

Same thing in this case, I’m betting.
