  "account": "Düsseldorf-based fragrance and flavor manufacturer Symrise has sold its US subsidiary specializing in terpenes to Munich-based financial investor Mutares. Symrise anticipates a non-cash loss in the mid-double-digit million Euro range due to the transaction, the Holzminden-based company announced on Tuesday. The move aims to focus the group on its core growth platforms. The purchase price is to be kept confidential. Symrise and the sold company AmeriTerpenes, however, intend to continue their business relationship. However, supply agreements ensure long-term access to terpene-based raw materials. AmeriTerpenes produces ingredients for fragrance, flavor, and industrial applications from facilities in Florida and Georgia. For the buyer, Mutares, the acquisition strengthens its chemistry segment and presence in the US market.",
  "summary": "Der deutsche Aromenhersteller verkauft das Geschäft mit Terpen-Inhaltsstoffen in den USA. Damit will der Konzern sich stärker auf sein Wachstumsgeschäft konzentrieren.",
