3i Infrastructure has agreed to sell its 71% stake in airport ground support equipment firm TCR for €1.14 billion (around $1.32 billion), realizing a 22% gain over its September valuation, with proceeds earmarked to reduce debt and support new investments.
March 5 (Reuters) - Investment firm 3i Infrastructure on Thursday agreed to sell its 71% stake in airport equipment firm TCR for 1.14 billion euros ($1.32 billion).
3i Infrastructure, which first invested in Belgium-based TCR in 2016, said the proceeds are 22% higher than the value as of September 30.
TCR is the world's largest independent lessor of airport ground support equipment with operations at over 230 airports across 20 countries, 3i Infrastructure's website showed.
