The underwriters for the offering are JPMorgan, Morgan Stanley, Nomura, UBS Investments, Credit Suisse, Daiwa Capital Markets, Deutsche Bank, Jefferies, Wells Fargo, D.A. Davidson, KeyBank Capital Markets, Raymond James and SunTrust Robinson Humphrey.
This is the global leader in the design, development, manufacture and distribution of performance-driven golf products, which are widely recognized for their quality excellence.

Acushnet described its mission as to be the performance and quality leader in every golf product category in which it competes. The company has remained consistent since it entered the golf ball business in 1932. According to the company, it is the steward of two of the most revered brands in golf: Titleist, one of golf’s leading performance equipment brands, and FootJoy, one of golf’s leading performance wear brands. Titleist has been the number one ball in professional golf for 68 years, and FootJoy has been the number one shoe on the PGA Tour for over six decades.
