ABB has reached an agreement to divest to Hitachi, Ltd. (Hitachi) its remaining 19.9 percent equity stake in the Hitachi Energy joint venture that was formed from ABB's Power Grids business in 2020, with Hitachi holding a stake of 80.1 percent. Hitachi has exercised its call option that was agreed between the parties in December 2018. The call option's exercise value is $1.679 billion. The companies have agreed to settle remaining obligations relating to the original transaction, and ABB will continue to provide transition services to Hitachi Energy for them to fully separate from ABB's systems. ABB does not expect to record any significant gain or loss as a result of the sale. ABB expects net positive cash inflows of approximately $1.425 billion upon closing of the sale. The transaction is subject to regulatory approvals and closing is expected to happen in the fourth quarter 2022.

ABB已達成協定,將其在2020年ABB電網業務成立的日立能源合資企業中剩餘的19.9%股權剝離給日立株式會社(日立),日立持有80.1%的股份。日立已行使了雙方在2018年12月達成的看漲期權。看漲期權的行權價值為16.79億美元。兩家公司已同意結清與原始交易相關的剩餘債務,ABB將繼續向日立能源提供過渡服務,使其完全脫離ABB的系統。ABB預計不會因此次出售而錄得任何重大損益。ABB預計出售完成後,淨正現金流入約為14.25億美元。這筆交易還有待監管部門的批准,預計將於2022年第四季度完成。
