Mylan acquires Womens Health Business from Famy Care Limited

Mylan Inc. announced that it has, through its Indian subsidiary Mylan Laboratories Limited, signed a definitive agreement to acquire certain female health care businesses from Famy Care Limited, a specialty women's health care company with global leadership in generic oral contraceptive products (OCPs) for $750 million in cash plus additional contingent payments of up to $50 million. The acquisition will build on Mylan's existing partnerships with Famy Care in North America, Europe and Australia, and provide Mylan with an enhanced and now vertically integrated platform that will accelerate the company's growth in the important global women's health care space. This transaction especially complements Mylan's pending acquisition of Abbott's non-U.S. developed markets specialty and branded generics business, which also includes a women's health care portfolio and sales and marketing capabilities. Additionally, the acquisition of the Famy Care businesses will make Mylan a hormonal contraceptives leader in high-growth emerging markets around the world. The acquisition is expected to be immediately accretive to Mylan's adjusted diluted earnings per share and growth profile upon closing. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2015, subject to regulatory approvals and certain closing conditions.
