Briggs & Stratton is a legacy manufacturer of small engines and power equipment used in lawn and garden products, generators, and related applications. Because the company’s corporate structure changed after its 2020 restructuring process, older revenue and profit figures are best treated as historical benchmarks.
Who owns Briggs & Stratton?
KPS Capital Partners announced an agreement in July 2020 to acquire substantially all of Briggs & Stratton’s assets (as part of a court-supervised process). For modern profiles, focus on ownership timeline and company-stated headcount, and treat older financials as historical.
