San Francisco- and Fort Worth-based investment firm TPG is teaming up with New York\u2019s Blackstone to acquire medical-technology company Hologic Inc. (Nasdaq: HOLX) in a deal valued at up to $18.3 billion.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The transaction represents a 46% premium to Hologic\u2019s closing price on May 23\u2014the last full trading day before media reports of a potential transaction involving Hologic\u2014according to the companies\u2019 joint announcement. The deal also includes minority investments from a subsidiary of the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority and an affiliate of GIC.<\/p>\n

\u201cInvesting behind healthcare innovation has been a core focus for TPG for decades, and Hologic represents a compelling opportunity,\u201d said Dr. John Schilling, co-managing partner of TPG Capital, in a statement. He added that TPG plans to draw on its \u201cdeep thematic expertise\u201d to support next-generation medical technologies that improve health outcomes for women worldwide.<\/p>\n

Stephen P. MacMillan, chairman, president, and CEO of Hologic, said the partnership will accelerate the company\u2019s mission and deliver strong value to shareholders.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith their resources, expertise, and commitment to women\u2019s health, Blackstone and TPG will help accelerate our growth and enhance our ability to deliver critical medical technologies to customers and patients around the world,\u201d MacMillan said.<\/p>\n

Blackstone Senior Managing Director Ram Jagannath said his firm has long followed Hologic\u2019s progress. \u201cHologic is an outstanding global leader in advancing women\u2019s health,\u201d he said, calling its diagnostic and medical-device products \u201clife-changing technologies\u201d for millions of patients worldwide.<\/p>\n

The deal is expected to close in the first half of 2026. Upon closing, Hologic\u2019s common stock will be delisted from Nasdaq. The company will keep its headquarters in Marlborough, Massachusetts, and continue operating under the Hologic name and brand.<\/p>\n

In a separate announcement, Kirkland & Ellis LLP, which advised Blackstone and TPG on the transaction, said the deal carries an enterprise value of up to $18.3 billion. Under the terms of the agreement, Blackstone and TPG will acquire all outstanding Hologic shares for $76 per share in cash, plus a non-tradable contingent value right (CVR) that could deliver up to $3 per share in two potential payments of $1.50 each. Those payments would depend on meeting global revenue goals for Hologic\u2019s Breast Health business in fiscal years 2026 and 2027, the law firm said.<\/p>\n

Kirkland & Ellis also noted that the Hologic board of directors unanimously approved the merger agreement and recommended that shareholders vote in favor. The transaction remains subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals and is expected to close in the first half of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.<\/p>\n
