Is there a chart somewhere showing the companies under the FIRST BRANDS umbrella?
Like for example, Fram is listed on their site, but Champ labs is not, it is called Luber Finer? Are they running independent companies or is FRAM running Luber Finer?
....I also see they acquired Carter, now I no longer see Airtex or ASC listed? Did first brands kill off these two brands and Carter took the business, or are the Airtex-ASC plants building parts going into Carter boxes?
I have some serious concerns with this conglomerate. Are they just shuffling around things like the Previous owner, or are they really trying to get these businesses profitable for long term investing?
