Metalclad Corp. said Tuesday it agreed to sell its insulation and contracting units to PDG Environmental Inc. for stock and warrants that could give Metalclad a stake of up to 48% in the Pennsylvania asbestos abatement company.

Newport Beach-based Metalclad, an insulation and asbestos treatment company, said it will receive 3.4 million shares of PDG Environmental stock worth about $2.1 million based on the Tuesday closing price of 63 cents a share. Metalclad also received warrants for an additional 4.4 million shares of PDG stock that can be exercised at 75 cents a share.

Metalclad could acquire a stake of up to 48% if it exercised the warrants.

The deal, involving the sale of Metalclad Insulation Corp. and Metalclad Environmental Contractors, is expected to close during the fourth quarter.
