(“embecta”) entered into a definitive Agreement for the Sale and Purchase of Owen Mumford Holdings Limited (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Mark Owen, Adam Mumford (in his individual capacity and in his capacity as trustee of the Mumford Family 2026 Trust), Anne Mumford (in her capacity as trustee of the Mumford Family 2026 Trust), Ellen Owen, Kim Priddis and Nancy Millington (together, the “Sellers”) pursuant to which embecta has agreed to acquire Owen Mumford Holdings Limited (“OM”), a privately held, UK-based innovator and manufacturer of medical devices and drug-delivery technologies, in a transaction valued at up to £150 million (the “Transaction”). Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, embecta will acquire OM for an upfront cash payment of £100 million at closing (subject to customary adjustments, including for closing net cash), and will pay up to an additional £50 million upon the achievement of certain commercial milestones related to sales of the Aidaptus® next-generation auto-injector platform through the end of 2028. The Transaction was unanimously approved by the embecta Board of Directors and is expected to close in embecta’s fiscal third quarter of 2026.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the parties have made customary representations and warranties and agreed to various customary covenants, including, among others, covenants to conduct the business of OM and its subsidiaries in the ordinary course between the execution of the Purchase Agreement and the consummation of the Transaction and post-closing non-solicitation and non-competition covenants applicable to the sellers of OM.
The consummation of the Transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. There are no material relationships between embecta or its affiliates and the Sellers, other than with respect to the transaction described herein.
The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Purchase Agreement filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
