General Finance Corporation (AMEX:GFN, GFN.U, GFN.WS) was incorporated in Delaware on October 14, 2005 in order to serve as a vehicle to effect a business combination with one or more operating businesses. From inception through September 13, 2007, we were a development stage company and had no business or operations. On September 13, 2007, we acquired RWA Holdings Pty Limited, an Australian corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Royal Wolf”). Royal Wolf leases and sells portable storage containers, portable container buildings and freight containers in Australia. On October 1, 2008, we acquired Pac-Van, Inc. ("Pac-Van"), an Indiana corporation. Pac-Van is a leading provider of modular buildings, mobile offices and storage containers in the United States. |
Our business plan and strategy is to identify, acquire and integrate specialty finance businesses in the United States, Europe and the Asia-Pacific area. These acquired operating companies will typically be structured vertically by type of product or business and have experienced management teams in industries with attractive organic or acquisition growth potential. Royal Wolf, our initial business combination, is an example of that strategy. Additional business lines or operating companies that we would consider include equipment rental and leasing companies that have high service components, such as modular buildings, mobile offices and storage containers, production and testing equipment, transportation, construction or storage equipment, safety equipment, specialty or niche insurance lines; and other business services companies. Our function at General Finance is to enhance the intrinsic values of the operating companies by providing guidance with respect to operating and acquisition strategy, logistical support, budgeting and long-term planning and financing and capital structure. | |
