An announcement from Sumitomo Forestry Co ( (JP:1911) ) is now available.

Sumitomo Forestry has completed the acquisition of 100% of U.S. homebuilder Tri Pointe Homes for approximately US$4.0 billion, funded initially by a large yen-denominated loan that it plans to refinance through long-term financing. Tri Pointe Homes becomes a wholly owned subsidiary of Sumitomo Forestry America and will be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange as it is integrated into the group.

By adding Tri Pointe Homes’ premium lifestyle brand, 160-plus active communities and operations in 13 high-growth states to its existing U.S. builders, Sumitomo Forestry becomes a homebuilder roughly equivalent to the fifth largest in the U.S. market. The group aims to leverage combined scale and expertise to expand U.S. housing supply, improve efficiency and profitability, and move toward its goal of delivering 23,000 homes annually in the U.S. by 2030, signaling a significant step-up in its North American growth strategy.
