HD Hyundai in advanced talks to acquire U.S. shipyard, seeking hiring and tech
HD Hyundai is reported to be in advanced negotiations to acquire a U.S. shipyard after targeting several firms, with a planned July announcement in Washington, D.C. delayed by a last-minute price disagreement. The group wants local hiring and technology transfers, supported by Cerberus and the Korea Development Bank as U.S. shipyard valuations rise amid Navy and Coast Guard modernization.
