How Emerson has repositioned itself
Over recent years Emerson Electric has moved from being a diversified industrial conglomerate toward a more focused automation and software company, driven by several large portfolio transactions and targeted investments.
On the divestment side, Emerson sold its climate technologies business, Climate Technologies, in a transaction valued at about $14 billion, retaining a minority stake while exiting day-to-day control of that segment.
Strategic focus on automation and software
The company has reinvested part of the proceeds into expanding its automation and industrial software footprint, including the acquisition of National Instruments (NI), a specialist in automated test and measurement systems, in a deal valued at roughly $8.2 billion.
By combining NI with its existing automation solutions, Emerson aims to strengthen its position in test, measurement and control systems for industries such as energy, life sciences and semiconductors, which management sees as key long-term growth markets.
What the company sells
Emerson Electric today generates most of its revenue from automation solutions, measurement and control technologies and industrial software platforms used by process and hybrid industries, including energy, chemicals, power, life sciences and factory automation customers worldwide.
