Danaher Corporation, a global science and technology innovator, announced that it has completed the acquisition of Masimo Corporation, a leading specialty diagnostics provider of pulse oximetry and other patient monitoring solutions, primarily in acute care treatment settings.
Masimo's trusted brand, advanced sensor technology and AI-enabled patient monitoring bring complementary and powerful new capabilities to the Danaher diagnostics portfolio. As a result of the transaction, Masimo is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Danaher and Masimo common stock has ceased trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market. Masimo will continue to operate under the Masimo brand and will be a stand-alone operating company within Danaher's Diagnostics segment.
"Masimo is a strong strategic fit for Danaher. Together, we expect to strengthen our ability to deliver differentiated products in acute care settings and accelerate Masimo's growth and global reach," said Julie Sawyer Montgomery, Executive Vice President of Diagnostics at Danaher. "We are excited to welcome the Masimo team to Danaher."
The consideration payable to former Masimo stockholders will be paid in accordance with the terms of the merger agreement, as further described in the definitive transaction materials filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
