Transaction Reports S&S Worldwide


Sansei Yusoki Co Ltd acquires stake in S&S Worldwide


Sansei Yusoki Co Ltd has acquired 226,379 shares of S&S Worldwide, Inc. one of the leading amusement ride and roller coaster manufacturers in the world. S&S was acquired by Sansei Yusoki Co Ltd, an Osaka Stock Exchange listed, elevation and stage equipment company, based in Osaka, Japan. Rich Allen, President and CEO of S&S, said, “The financial strength of Sansei, coupled with their strong engineering and manufacturing focus, will be a tremendous comple- ment to S&S’s patented portfolio and strong sales success all around the world.”


Jeff Koffman, Chairman of the Board of S&S, said, “It has been a pleasure getting to know the Sansei team, led by Makoto Nakagawa. I am excited about his vision for the future. Both companies are convinced that, with the strength of the combined entities, S&S will gain further market share


in the roller coaster and high-end segment in the amusement industry.”


Both Allen and Koffman will remain in their roles after the transaction, as will Kevin Rohwer, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for S&S. S&S will retain its headquarters and manufacturing facilities in Logan, Utah.


Tim MacColl, Managing Partner of Larsen MacColl Partners, said “The transaction certainly seems like an excellent fit with the purchaser’s existing business platforms and should be a win for both purchaser and sellers. We very much enjoyed working with purchaser and appreciate the efforts of our legal team at Miller & Martin PLLC, which was led by Mark Degler and Patrick Mitchell. They are trusted advisors who were critical to the success of this transaction, which involved cross-border issues, a foreign public company purchaser and complex indemnification provisions.”
