The FTSE 100-listed firm said on Wednesday that the disposal of Meggitt A/S was consistent with its strategy of developing "sustainable and differentiated technologies" for its core end markets in aerospace, defence, and energy.
Meggitt A/S had gross assets of £23.0m on 31 December, including goodwill and other intangible assets arising on the original acquisition of the business, and delivered £2.9m in pre-tax profits in the 2021 financial year.
Cash proceeds will be paid on completion and be used to pay down debt and for general corporate purposes.
