French tyre maker Michelin has agreed to buy telematics company Masternaut for an undisclosed amount, in a deal Michelin said would increase its presence in the field of customer services.
According to Reuters, Masternaut manages over 220,000 mostly light utility vehicles under contract, and Michelin’s takeover of the company was made on the basis of 8 times 2018 EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation) before synergies.
“Masternaut represents a further step in the expansion of our services and solutions business, especially in Europe and for light vehicle fleets,” said Michelin managing general partner Florent Menegaux.
