But the provider of transport safety barriers released details of the £9.4mn acquisition of Korns Galvanizing alongside its annual figures, as it seeks to deepen and expand its presence across the pond. It comes on top of another post-period-end deal to acquire Texas-based Enduro Composites for £28.7mn.
