Shawcor Ltd. (“Shawcor” or the “Company”) (TSX: SCL) today announced it has finalized the sale and leaseback agreement for its Rexdale facility. Net proceeds for the transaction of approximately $49 million exceeded previously communicated expected proceeds and, concurrent with the sale of the facility, the Company has entered into a three-year leaseback agreement. This new arrangement facilitates operational continuity while the Company relocates to a modernized location in the Greater Toronto Area. Proceeds from the property sale will be used to reduce existing indebtedness.

"We continue to see accelerated demand for our products in the Automotive and Industrial segment as the efforts to electrify our society advance,” said Mike Reeves, President and CEO of Shawcor. “This sale will allow us to establish a greener, more modern and efficient production facility to meet the growing demand and to deliver new technology solutions to our customers. This move will also expand opportunities for flexible work arrangements for our employees as we reduce our physical office footprint.”
