United Technologies Corp. (UTC) has announced that it will sell its rocket engine and wind power businesses to help finance its US$ 16.5 billion purchase of aerospace supplier Goodrich Corp.
UTC businesses identified for sale include Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne, Clipper Windpower and the Hamilton Sundstrand Industrial businesses: Milton Roy, Sullair and Sundyne. These businesses are treated as held for sale and have been moved to discontinued operations in UTC’s financial statements. Gains realized at the time of closing are expected to be greater than impairment charges in discontinued operations.
