Coats Group plc ( (GB:COA) ) just unveiled an update.
Coats Group plc has announced its strategic decision to exit the US Yarns business within its Performance Materials division, following a review of its Americas Yarns operations. This move, which includes the closure of the Kings Mountain, North Carolina facility, is expected to enhance the company’s EBIT margins and allow it to focus on more profitable areas of its portfolio. The exit is anticipated to be completed by Q2, generating a modest cash inflow after closure costs, and reflects Coats’ strategy to streamline operations and concentrate on growth in other segments.
