Abstract

The article discusses the potential sale of OEConnection, an automotive software company, by US-based private equity firm Genstar Capital, with a valuation that could reach up to $5 billion, including debt. The sale process is expected to begin later this year, with Evercore serving as the investment banking advisor. OEConnection, founded in 2000 and based in Ohio, specializes in software systems for the sale and distribution of original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement parts, and has reported an EBITDA of $200 million and annual revenues of $400 million. Ford and General Motors, which hold minority stakes in the company, were involved in its acquisition by Genstar Capital in 2019. [Extracted from the article]
