Private equity firm Ardian said on Tuesday it acquired a 50% stake in specialty chemicals maker ANGUS Chemical Company from Golden Gate Capital for a total enterprise value of about $2.25 billion
San Francisco-based Golden Gate Capital bought ANGUS from The Dow Chemical Company, now Dow Inc ., in February 2015 for more than $1 billion and will retain a 50% stake in the chemicals firm.
