When the deal was announced, Yanmar said it would be accomplished with “virtually no overlap in distribution networks.” At that time, Giuliano Parodi, executive officer of Yanmar Holdings, said: “We believe that the Yanmar Group’s acquisition of ASV will significantly bolster Yanmar’s compact charlotte nc dump trucks offerings in the loader segment, a product range vital for success in the all-important North American market.”

According to a May 2019 investor presentation, ASV saw $127.6 million in net sales in fiscal year 2018, 82 percent of which was in North America. ASV had 293 dealer/rental locations.
