KKR has completed its $1.6bn acquisition of CIRCOR International, a provider of flow control products and services for the Industrial and Aerospace & Defence markets. CIRCOR common stock has ceased trading and will no longer be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
In conjunction with the transaction close, Dan Daniel, who as three decades of experience leading US industrial companies, is assuming the role of Chair of CIRCOR.
