Cactus ( (WHD) ) has shared an announcement.

On January 2, 2025, Cactus, Inc. completed its previously announced acquisition of a 65% controlling interest in Baker Hughes Company’s Surface Pressure Control business, a move the company described as transformational because it broadens its geographic footprint and opens access to new growth markets while reinforcing its focus on safety, customer execution, margins and returns. In connection with the transaction, the parties entered into an amended and restated LLC Agreement for their joint venture that sets out an exit option for Baker Hughes and Cactus based on a capped valuation tied to the venture’s Adjusted EBITDA, governance provisions requiring supermajority board approval for major actions, restrictions on transfers of membership interests, and mutual non-compete obligations in specified surface pressure control markets, collectively shaping control, valuation and competitive boundaries for the combined business.

The most recent analyst rating on (WHD) stock is a Buy with a $56.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Cactus stock, see the WHD Stock Forecast page.
