This leaves American Skiing Company rather small...
Ski firm sells Sunday River to Boyne USA
June 5, 2007 AUGUSTA, Maine --American Skiing Co. is selling the Sunday River and Sugarloaf USA ski areas in western Maine to Boyne USA Inc. of Michigan for $77 million in cash, American Skiing said Tuesday. The Park City, Utah-based American Skiing said it expects the transaction to close on or before July 31. Boyne, which will assume $2 million in debt and liabilities in the deal, is a privately held company that has interests in seven North American resort properties. American Skiing President B.J. Fair said Boyne "is an established operator and should bring a wealth of vision and resources" to Sunday River in Newry and Sugarloaf in Carrabassett Valley. But Fair said that with so much of the company's roots and history at the Maine resorts, "it will be hard to part ways with these resorts." Les Otten, American Skiing's founder and former chief executive, issued a statement in which he said he's disappointed with the sale decision, but wishes the new owners well. Otten said that after selling his stake in the Boston Red Sox, he was looking for investment opportunities in Maine. |
