Business Progress:
業務進展：
Titan International acquired Caraustar, a global manufacturer of specialty wheels and tires, which is set to significantly expand Titan's customer base and product portfolio.
The company plans to explore growth opportunities and expects the acquisition to reduce cyclicality related to the agriculture and construction industries thanks to Caraustar's more retail-oriented business.
Titan has focused on integrating Caraustar and maximizing the value of the transaction. The company anticipates growth and synergy opportunities from the acquisition and plans to expand its geographical footprint.
The company has approved a restructuring plan for one of its European businesses to reposition it for future growth.
Titan has emphasized its focus on optimizing operations and working capital.
Following the acquisition of Caraustar, Titan expects more judicious deployment of its strong free cash flow in the coming fiscal year. More clarity about the company's plans will be provided as the integration process proceeds.
泰坦國際收購了全球特種車輪和輪胎製造商Caraustar，這將顯著擴大泰坦的客戶群和產品組合。
該公司計劃探索增長機會，並預計此次收購將減少與農業和建築業相關的週期性，這要歸功於Caraustar更加以零售爲導向的業務。
泰坦一直專注於整合Caraustar和最大限度地提高交易價值。該公司預計此次收購將帶來增長和協同增效機會，並計劃擴大其地理覆蓋範圍。
該公司已經批准了其一項歐洲業務的重組計劃，以對其未來增長進行重新定位。
泰坦強調其重點是優化運營和營運資本。
在收購Caraustar之後，泰坦預計，下一財年將更加明智地部署其強勁的自由現金流。隨着整合過程的進行，將進一步明確公司的計劃。
