自 2021 年起,在 KKR 的支持下,该公司建立了独立的运营平台并扩大了车队规模,账面价值增长了 150%,业务规模扩大至成为美国最大的铁路货车租赁公司之一。

Since 2021, the Company – with KKR’s support – established its standalone operating platform and expanded its fleet, increasing book value by 150% and scaling the business into one of the largest railcar lessors in the United States.

交易完成后,Ares 计划利用其在基础设施投资方面的丰富能力和规模化资本,支持无限运输公司经验丰富的管理团队,推动车队持续增长,并深化其在北美地区的客户关系。

Following the close of the transaction, Ares intends to leverage its extensive infrastructure investing capabilities and scaled capital to support Infinity’s experienced management team, continued fleet growth and deep customer relationships across North America.

We are proud of what we have built together over the past decade and are confident that Ares will be an exceptional partner to Infinity going forward.”
