Over time, the company expanded into the manufacturing of traffic and road safety signs and into large-format printing and established a portfolio of billboard assets in New Mexico. The non-billboard businesses and billboards in the Southwest were previously divested.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are thrilled to add Newman\u2019s inventory, which will further strengthen our portfolio across the upper Midwest. The transaction immediately establishes us as the leading player in North Dakota,\u201d said Sean Reilly, Lamar\u2019s chief executive officer. \u201cAs a company with deep family roots ourselves, we admire the platform that the Newman family built and we appreciate their trust in Lamar to carry the business forward.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The purchase price, which was paid in cash, was not disclosed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Newman family wishes Lamar the very best as they take over the Newman Outdoor inventory. This is a good day for our family as I\u2019m confident it is for Lamar,\u201d said Kari Newman Ness, Chairperson of the Board.<\/p>\n<p>Delancey Street Partners acted as financial advisor to Newman, while DeWitt LLP acted as legal advisor.
