Fresenius acquire APP
Fresenius will acquire APP Pharmaceuticals, the US manufacturer of intravenous drugs, for $3.7 billion (£1.9 billion) in a deal that will help the German dialysis specialist break into the American market.
APP, the second-largest maker of intravenous generic drugs in the United States, will complement Fresenius’ Kabi unit, a global supplier of infusions and gastric tube feeding equipment, which so far has lacked a U.S. presence.
APP shareholders will receive $23 a share in cash, a 29 per cent premium to the last closing share price.
