NOTE 13. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On April 10, 2017, we entered into an agreement to form a joint venture with Eaton Corporation PLC, subject to regulatory approvals. We will purchase a 50 percent interest in the new venture named Eaton Cummins Automated Transmission Technologies, for approximately $600 million in cash. The joint venture will design, assemble, sell and support medium-duty and heavy-duty automated transmissions for the commercial vehicle market, including new product launches. We expect the transaction to close in the third quarter of 2017, at which time we will consolidate the results of the joint venture in our Components segment as we have a majority voting interest in the venture by virtue of a tie-breaking vote on the board of directors.
