Looking Ahead
In February, announced that American Express Global Business Travel had agreed to acquire it for up to 410 million pounds (about $550 million).
Also agreed to sell its Fraedom payment and expense management business to Visa for 141.8 million pounds (about $190.1 million).
Note: HRG declined to provide a sales figure. It reported $16 billion in sales for the 2017 Power List, and in public documents in September it referenced a 7% year-over-year drop in revenue for the March-September period. Therefore, we estimate its position at No. 7
