SHANGHAI, CHINA<\/strong> \u2013 Sun Pharmaceutical Industries, based in India, has announced a significant acquisition of Organon & Co, a company located in New Jersey, for an all-cash deal valued at approximately $11.75 billion, including debt.<\/p>\n Sun Pharma will purchase all of Organon\u2019s outstanding shares at $14 each. This decision comes after a thorough evaluation of strategic options, as noted by Carrie Cox, the executive chair at Organon. She emphasized that the deal offers immediate and significant value for Organon\u2019s shareholders.<\/p>\n Organon, which was spun off from Merck in 2021, focuses on women’s health and biosimilars, boasting over 70 products available in 140 countries worldwide.

With the U.S. being a key market, the buyout is expected to boost Sun Pharma\u2019s product lineup.<\/p>\n Sun Pharma aims to grow its innovative medicines segment, which currently includes products in dermatology, ophthalmology, and onco-dermatology. For the financial year ending March 2025, this sector contributed 20% to Sun Pharma\u2019s total sales, and the acquisition is anticipated to increase that contribution to 27%.<\/p>\n Dilip Shanghvi, the executive chairman of Sun Pharma, highlighted that Organon\u2019s offerings, reach, and capabilities will complement Sun Pharma\u2019s existing portfolio well.<\/p>\n Organon operates in several key markets, including the U.S., Europe, China, Canada, and Brazil, and has six manufacturing sites in the EU and emerging markets.<\/p>\n In the market response, Organon\u2019s shares surged by nearly 31% on Friday, while Sun Pharma\u2019s shares experienced a slight decline of 3.6%.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sun Pharma to Acquire Organon in Major Deal SHANGHAI, CHINA \u2013 Sun Pharmaceutical Industries, based in India, has announced a significant acquisition of Organon & Co, a company located in New Jersey, for an all-cash deal valued at approximately $11.75 billion, including debt.
