Will the company pay dividends or engage in share repurchase activity?

  • Prior to the merger, Technip had a policy of returning capital to shareholders through dividends while FMC Technologies returned capital via share buybacks.
  • TechnipFMC intends to adopt a dividend policy in the future and anticipates the possible use of dividends distribution and share repurchases. Any shareholder distributions will remain subject to approval by the TechnipFMC Board of Directors and available distributable reserves of the company. To that end, TechnipFMC expects to implement a court-approved reduction of its capital in order to create distributable profits to support the payment of possible future dividends or share repurchases.

What will the combined company’s balance sheet look like?

  • At the time of closing, TechnipFMC emerged with one of the strongest balance sheets in the industry.
  • The company has a solid capital structure that is intended to enhance its ability to drive profitable growth and value creation, especially as market conditions improve.

What cost synergies are expected to result from the merger that created TechnipFMC?

  • The combination of Technip and FMC Technologies is expected to achieve annual pretax cost synergies of approximately $400 million per annum in 2019 and thereafter.
  • Synergies are expected to come from the company’s (1) supply chain, (2) corporate overhead and (3) regional infrastructure:
    • Supply chain: beneficial scale from higher combined volumes, improved terms with suppliers
    • Corporate: leveraging global shared services (such as information technology), reduction in external vendors
    • Infrastructure: reduced local footprint of regional Selling, General and Administrative expenses, facilities, office costs and engineering costs
  • The $400 million in pretax cost savings do not include potential balance sheet optimization or tax synergies.
  • These synergies are on top of the company’s existing operational cost savings initiatives

Does the company anticipate any revenue synergies as a result of the merger?

  • TechnipFMC will offer customers a value proposition built on early involvement and integrated solutions that can provide significant cost savings and improve project economics.
