Eastern states. This strategic acquisition exemplifies our strategy of adding scale and volume to our US operations
in pressure treated lumber and specialty wood products, headquartered in Dallas,” said Amar Doman, Chairman and
CEO of Doman. “The Acquisition is very much in-line with our growth strategy and consistent with our view of value
for what we are purchasing, and value creation for shareholders as we look forward to working on our integration
efforts as we have done with previous opportunities. We are very excited to welcome our new employees to the
Doman Group of Companies.”
The purchase price for the Acquisition was paid in cash and fully funded by Doman’s cash-on-hand. No shares will be
